Fertility in Denver
Did you know that small alterations could add up to tremendous results when it comes to fertility? According to a Harvard study, women who made five or more lifestyle changes had more than an 80% decrease in their infertility risk!
These changes included nutrition, which plays a vital role in fetal development, growth and birth. The food we eat is the building block for any action or reaction in your body. The hormones that affect conception, reproduction and birth are certainly no exception. Your weight, whether over or under, will also influence whether you can conceive.
Affecting Generations of Your Future Family
Dr. Catherine Shanahan said it best: “Food is like a language, an unbroken information stream that connects every cell in your body to an aspect of the natural world. The better the source and the more undamaged the message when it arrives at the cells, the better health will be.”
A couple’s pre-conception nutrition has the ability to affect their children, their grandchildren and beyond. Conception and birth are nothing short of a miracle. It’s not, however, always easy. Finding balance in the bodies of both the mother and father is necessary to create and maintain a pregnancy and your perfect little person. Functional nutrition can assist you in finding this balance, whether you are just starting your journey or have long faced conception challenges.
How Functional Nutrition Can Help You
It’s Nikki’s goal to find the root cause or causes of your fertility struggles.
