Balancing Hormones Naturally

We often think that fertility is only a woman issue. Though it actually "takes two to tango'! Men play such a vital role. 

Ayla Barmmer, MS, RDN, LDN, is a registered dietitian nutritionist, functional medicine practitioner and the founder, and CEO, of FullWell, a fertility wellness and education brand. Her entire career focus has been to advance the health and empowerment of practitioners, patients and families through nutritional science, functional medicine and evidence-based holistic solutions.

Barmmer has successfully led an integrative and functional nutrition practice, called Boston Functional Nutrition, which specializes in women's health and infertility and has helped thousands of individuals seeking supportive, individualized care for their wellness and nutritional concerns. She also co-founded the Women’s Health Nutrition Academy, which offers in-depth and evidence-based continuing education courses to dietitians/nutritionists, midwives, doulas and any other healthcare practitioners who offer services for women’s health. After two decades of providing in-depth education to fellow practitioners on one of the most common, yet perplexing, family health issues and working on thousands of complex fertility cases through her clinical practice, Barmmer launched FullWell to provide all families access to the same evidence-based, effective, high-quality prenatal and fertility supplements that she successfully uses with her own patients.

• Why fertility is both a men and women issue
• How to prepare before time of conception
• Four things to focus on when preparing for conception
