The Fertility Diet: Groundbreaking Research Reveals Natural Ways to Boost Ovulation and Improve Your Chances of Getting Pregnant

Pregnancy Success!

I have had ovulation problems and was diagnosed with polycystic ovaries when I was 18. I first found out about this book in a magazine article in mid-November. I purchased the book in mid-December and started putting into practice some of what the book recommends: eating less red meat, eating more beans and fish, eating whole grains, limiting trans fat and eating whole fat dairy. I didn't follow it strictly, but did incorporate what I could. Due to problems with ovulation, my doctor had prescribed me fertility drugs, but we were apprehensive to use them. Once I found about this book, I was eager to try its recommendations because they were things I could naturally control through diet and exercise. I am now seven months pregnant, we were able to get pregnant in early January - less than a month after I read the book! I am so grateful to have found this book and look forward to using its principles in hopes of future pregnancies!

A reviewer

I am 42 years old. My husband and I had been trying for 8 years. We tried many expensive medical options, and still had no luck! Once I cut back on the red meat, as the book suggested, I began to get my protein from beans and nuts, I am now 8 months along the way! I am looking for names for my baby now! Gosh, i am glowing and so happy! and just over the moon! I am now eating a healthy vegetarian diet and my doctor is happy/impressed with my body and my babies progress.

Okay book

As a midwife, I read "the Fertility Diet" and found the information to be helpful. However, the author discourages full-fat dairy after conception and advises switching to skim milk. This is a really bad and wrong advice as a nursing mother needs natural fats to support the growth of her baby's brain. Another book that I found it to be more accurate in its information is the Perfect 10 Diet.

I'm glad I bought this book.

I like that the information in this book is based on scientific studies. It's well written and informative! I liked learning about the science behind their statements, such as why whole dairy is better for you (in limited servings) than reduced-fat dairy, etc.

Fertility Diet

This book was very easy to read and understand. It provides a depth of knowledge and research into the study and resolution of fertility through diet and behavioral changes.
