Foods that are naturally lower in sugars or those that do not cause spikes in blood sugar, are considered to be low-glycemic. These foods are often also high in fiber. Whole grains, vegetables and some fruits, like grapefruit, are considered to be high fiber, low-glycemic foods, which are linked to increasing fertility. Avoid white and over-processed breads and opt instead for whole wheat bread. Eating more vegetables and a big salad with dinner can all help increase your vegetable intake.
Dairy
Interestingly, high-fat dairy products have been linked to increasing fertility. Ice cream, cheeses and whole milk are all examples of dairy that can help your chances of conceiving. These foods are, however, higher in fat and calories so consumption should be monitored.
Healthy Diet
Of course the best way to ensure you’re eating all the right “˜fertility foods’ is to simply eat a healthy, balanced and nutritious diet that doesn’t exclude any of the food groups. A diet that is low in fat and high in fiber is the best way to go.
Always consult your doctor before changing your diet, and remember that supplements are never as good as the real thing. While no single food can boost your fertility, a well-rounded and nutritious diet will give you the best possible odds.
