Links between diet and human fertility prove it’s essential to address nutrition when aiming to improve fertility outcomes and tend to reproductive health concerns. Typically diets high in refined carbohydrates, added sugars and trans fats are linked with negative impacts. Whilst diets rich in omega-3 fatty acids, vitamins, minerals, dietary fibre and protein reap beneficial outcomes on reproductive health. With the weather warming up it’s a great time to visit your local farmers market, explore the seasonal produce and get creative with home cooking to support quality food choices which benefit our gut and reproductive health. 🍉🍎🥝🥕🍅🥑🫐

A good Vitamin D level is so important in pregnancy. If you are deficient in vitamin D or suspect deficiency it’s important to speak to your health provider regarding supplementation to correct levels prior to conception or during pregnancy if you were unaware. Vitamin D deficiency can be associated with preeclampsia, low birth weight, prematurity and gestational diabetes. Vitamin D deficiency also has many other adverse outcomes outside of pregnancy. Risk factors for Vitamin D deficiency: • Low sunlight exposure (20 minutes of sunshine with 40% skin exposed EVERY day is the recommendation to prevent Vitamin D deficiency). Dark skin is at more risk for deficiency due to higher skin melanin content requiring more sun exposure. • Reduced dietary intake or absorption (malabsorption issues including inflammatory bowel disease, cystic fibrosis, celiac disease and gastric bypass). • Obesity • Certain prescription medication • Chronic kidney or liver disease Our main source to produce this awesome stuff is you guessed it - sunlight 🌞 It’s surprising though how many of us don’t get adequate and regular sunlight exposure and this is particularly true in the winter months. Very little vitamin D comes from dietary sources however it is present in oily fish, eggs and UV exposed mushrooms. Get out in the sun (safely) and check your vitamin D 🌞 #vitamind #vitaminddeficiency #fertility #fertilitysupport #preconceptioncare #pregnancycare
