A healthy lifestyle, diet and nutritional supplements is crucial to a successful pregnancy and a healthy baby, many people are unaware of the fact that diet can help to correct hormone imbalances that may affect your ability to conceive. Certain foods and drinks are known to increase or lower fertility.

Lifestyle and diet changes are the easiest and should be the first option you consider to overcome infertility.

Popular books on 'Diet to Overcome Infertility' 

There are 2 books in the market that's written exclusively on the topic of diet to improve fertility. A lot of people has benefited from adopting a good diet following these books,so it can be a great addition to your library of reference, but for me, diet was not the only answer.

1) The Infertility Diet: Get Pregnant and Prevent Miscarriage by Fern Reiss (Read review here)

2) Fertility Foods: Optimize Ovulation and Conception Through Food Choice by Jeremy Groll.

It is really strange that a book titled: 'Fertility Foods' actually has more content and advice about exercise and mental health than talking about what to eat and what to avoid eating.
Dr. Groll's research has proven that there is a powerful link between the body's insulin resistance and fertility problems. The focus of the book is on the problem of insulin resistance, how it impedes fertility and the diet approach to improve fertility and avoid miscarriage (there is a significant link between insulin resistance and miscarriage too).

The Good: Dr Groll presents a well researched and scientific approach, especially for patients with PCOS. He suggested that following a diet and exercise regime to lose weight and control your insulin surges is reasonable and healthy.

The Bad: There are simply not enough advice on what to eat, what to avoid and recipes that I can use. I expected more from a book with a specific title of 'Fertility Foods'. The diet program suggested in the book is based on the Atkin's Diet, which, like any other diet program to lose weight, I believe will just not work for everyone.

Verdict: The basis of the book of a high protein, low carb diet (based on Atkin's diet) and exercise to lose weight and improve insulin resistance is a novel approach to the topic of infertility. Although this book offers some sound advice, I feel that it is not for everyone. The simple idea of adopting a diet to lose weight has it's flaw, and I feel that only a change of lifestyle and diet that lasts can bring a genuine effect on your weight and health.

I'd like to share this with you 

What made the difference for me....

My success at getting pregnant after a long period of time struggling with infertility (even though my doctors told me I'm completely healthy) is attributed to following methods tried and tested by many. It involves a lot of factors, not just diet alone (although diet is a big and integral part of it).

All these happened when I came across the ebook: Infertility Secrets Handbook. Some of the invaluable information found in the book:

1) Why you should get tested before you start trying to get pregnant.

2) The single most important supplement to take for high fertility.

3) Why you should never have sex before you ovulate %u2026 and what you should do instead.

4) Advice many doctors give that is absolutely wrong!

5) The pre-pregnancy exercise you must do to prevent an embarrassing condition after you deliver.

6) 3 strategies for making your husband more fertile.

7) How to overcome the single most difficult aspect of getting pregnant.

8) What food you must never eat if you want to avoid a miscarriage.

9) The unlikely position that makes conception most likely.

10) The "fertility edge" a female orgasm gives that 9 out of ten women don't know about.
