Episode 24 – Nuts and fertility
October 2022.
About this episode:
In this episode of The Healthy Handful podcast, we speak with dietitian Melanie McGrice about the evidence behind diet, nuts and fertility, and why the first 1,000 days of life is so critical.
Good nutrition can optimise both egg and sperm health. From selenium and omega-3s for men, to iodine and choline for women, optimal intake of particular nutrients is crucial to lay the foundation during pre-conception, post-conception and pregnancy, and ultimately for the healthy development of a baby.
We also ask Melanie to dive a little deeper into the role nuts may play, as part of a healthy diet, in supporting fertility.
