 The Fertility Diet book
Has anyone heard of the Fertility Diet book? There is a large article in today's Columbus Dispatch (local newspaper). This books states that the first line of treatment for certain fertility problems including ovulation disorders is to correct the person's diet. Here is a brief synopsis of what the authors say can enhance fertility. - Avoid Trans fats.
- Use unsaturated vegtable oils such as olive or canola.
- Eat more vegetable protein, such as beans and nuts, and less animal protein.
- Choose whole-grain sources of carbohydrates.
- Drank a glass of whole milk or have a small dish of ice cream or full fat yougart. (???)
- Take a multivitamin that contains folic acid and other B vitamins.
- Get plenty of iron but not from red meat.
- Avoid sugary sodas. Coffee, tea and alchohol (?) are okay in moderation.
- If overweight lose 5 to 10% of total body weight.
Let me know what your thoughts are and if anyone has purchased this book.. I don't want to waste my money if it is off base.
