26/06/26 A Red Card For Infertility

Episode Summary
Can lifestyle really influence fertility?
Infertility affects millions of couples around the world, and for many, there isn't a single clear cause. Instead, fertility is often influenced by a combination of lifestyle, nutrition, stress, environmental factors and overall metabolic health.

In this episode, we explore practical, natural ways to support fertility by looking at the bigger picture. We discuss how chronic stress, insulin resistance, diet, environmental toxins, medications and nutrient deficiencies may all play a role, along with simple lifestyle changes that can help create a healthier foundation for conception.

* Diets that may help support fertility
* Intermittent fasting and metabolic health
* Environmental toxins and endocrine disruptors
* Common medications that may affect fertility
