​

A fertility friendly diet is associated with:

​

• A 40% increased probability of success in achieving a pregnancy through IF, improving embryo

yield and number of fertilised eggs 

• Significant improvements in sperm quality including, sperm count, sperm motility and sperm

concentration 

• An increased probability of pregnancy 

• Improvement in inflammation and insulin resistance in women with PCOS 

• A reduced risk of ovulation disorders 

​

Examples of important nutrients for fertility:

​

Folate reduces the risk of neural tube defects, may support progesterone levels and promotes healthy

ovulation, reduces miscarriage risk, important for production of DNA.

Antioxidants (vitamins C & E, zinc & selenium)- protect against oxidative stress which can impact fertility,

protect eggs and other cells from free radicals, increase chance of conception.

Omega 3 - anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, may improve egg quality, implantation and ART

outcomes.

Choline - helps maintain a normal pregnancy, reduces risk of neural tube defects, important for placental

function and early foetal brain development. 

Vitamin B12 - inadequate levels associated with female infertility and low levels associated with

miscarriage.
