Optimising Nutrition & Lifestyle for Fertility: Sandra Greenbank’s Expert Tips
Are you on a journey to optimise your nutrition and lifestyle for better fertility? This Healthy Eating Week, we're sharing some invaluable tips from Sandra Greenbank, a renowned fertility nutritionist from the Fertility Nutrition Centre who joined us on the stage at this year’s Fertility Show.
Here's how you can make simple yet powerful changes to your diet and lifestyle:
🥗 Prioritise Whole Foods: Fill your plate with a variety of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats. Remember, you can't out-supplement a poor diet!
🍳 Start with a Nutritious Breakfast: Kickstart your day with a protein-rich breakfast. Eggs are a fantastic choice if you can tolerate them.
💧 Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water, preferably from glass or stainless steel containers to avoid harmful plastics.
🌿 Supplement Wisely: Ensure you're getting enough Vitamin D, Magnesium, and Omega-3s. These nutrients are crucial for fertility and overall health.
🧘♀️ Balance Exercise and Rest: Engage in regular physical activity but avoid over-exercising. Quality sleep is equally important for your health and fertility.
🧴 Reduce Toxins: Opt for natural beauty and cleaning products. Avoid BPA and other harmful chemicals by choosing safer alternatives.
🧠 Manage Stress: Incorporate stress-reducing practices like yoga, meditation, or deep-breathing exercises into your daily routine.
🔬 Regular Testing: Get your nutrient levels and thyroid function checked regularly to ensure everything is in balance.
Remember, it's about making better choices every day and not striving for perfection. Every small step counts towards a healthier you.
