Boosting Fertility with Real Food: Essential Nutrients, Ancestral Diets, and Male Fertility with Lisa Hendrickson-Jack Part Two

Boosting Fertility with Real Food: Essential Nutrients, Ancestral Diets, and Male Fertility with Lisa Hendrickson-Jack Part Two “Fertility isn’t something you fix; it’s the result of whole-body wellness, a balance of mental, emotional, and physical health.” Topics Discussed: 🦩 Nutritional “banking” before pregnancy and building up essential nutrient stores. 🦩 The benefits of bioavailable nutrients from whole foods during pregnancy. 🦩 Nutrient-dense foods and how they support reproductive health. 🦩 How consuming iron-rich foods enhance energy and balance iron levels. 🦩 Benefits of traditional diets over synthetic supplementation. 🦩 Sperm quality and its role in infertility. Does your diet consist of nutrient-dense foods? Do you have a holistic approach that supports your fertility and overall health? Consuming whole foods helps build essential reserves for pre-pregnancy, during pregnancy, and postpartum. In this episode of the Finding Fertility podcast, I continue my conversation with Lisa Hendrickson-Jack about the importance of good nutrition that supports your fertility and overall health. Lisa is a certified Fertility Awareness Educator and Holistic Reproductive Health Practitioner who trains women’s health practitioners to use their menstrual cycle as a vital sign in their practices. She is the founder of the Fertility Awareness Mastery Mentorship™ program and the author of three bestselling books, The Fifth Vital Sign, Real Food for Fertility, and the Fertility Awareness Mastery Charting Workbook. Listen in to learn the benefits of consuming bioavailable nutrients and iron-rich foods instead of supplements to support your pregnancy needs. You will also learn how sperm and male fertility health significantly influence conception. "If sperm quality isn’t optimal, it’s a massive contributor to fertility challenges—let’s not overlook that!" Episode Highlights: [01:20] Reflecting how my health focus has shifted beyond conception, plus the need for a comprehensive approach to fertility. [04:48] How pregnancy can deplete a woman’s nutritional stores and the importance of good nutrition that supports your recovery.
