Struggling with poor egg quality that's affecting your ability to conceive and stay pregnant?
While factors like age, genetics, and medical history might be beyond your control, there's still a lot you can do to enhance your fertility. Your diet, lifestyle choices, and exposure to toxins play a significant role in egg quality—areas where you have the power to make positive changes.
Instead of focusing on what you can't control, let's focus on what you can. By making intentional changes in these areas, you can significantly impact your fertility journey for the better.
Remember, each month, you ovulate just one egg—let's make sure it's a healthy one!

...Regardless of age, AMH or fertility history
Egg quality is a critical factor in fertility, influencing not only the ability to conceive but also the likelihood of a healthy pregnancy
Improving egg quality involves making targeted changes in areas you can control. By focusing on nutrition, you can directly support the various processes essential for healthy eggs.
With nutrition, the aim is to:
✔️ Reduce inflammation and oxidative stress/damage: A diet rich in antioxidants helps combat oxidative stress, protecting eggs from damage.
✔️ Support DNA synthesis and cell growth: Consuming foods high in folate, zinc, and other essential nutrients supports DNA synthesis, crucial for healthy egg development.
✔️ Support the mitochondrial function of eggs: Mitochondria are the powerhouses of cells, including egg cells. Nutrients like CoQ10 can enhance mitochondrial function, providing the energy needed for egg maturation and development.
✔️ Support egg development and maturation: Ensuring a steady intake of vitamins and minerals helps support the overall development and maturation of eggs.
Key Nutrients for Egg Development
Folate
Can help reduce the risk of birth defects and support healthy ovulation.
Think lots of leafy greens, like spinach, kale, and Swiss chard
Omega-3
Omega-3 fatty acids, which help reduce inflammation and may improve blood flow to the reproductive organs, and enhance egg quality.
Look for wild-caught salmon in the seafood section of your supermarket.
Berries
Help protect eggs from oxidative stress and support reproductive health.
Berries like blueberries, strawberries, and blackberries!
Avocado
Avocado is rich in healthy monounsaturated fats, which can help regulate hormones and support overall reproductive health.
Nuts and Seeds
Excellent sources of essential fatty acids, antioxidants, and protein, which can help balance hormones and improve egg quality.
Nuts (e.g., almonds and walnuts) and seeds (e.g., flaxseeds and chia seeds)
