This week's guest is a trailblazer in the nutrition world when it comes to pregnancy and fertility. Lily Nichols, RDN is the author of Real Food for Pregnancy and Real Food for Gestational Diabetes - and now her new book with Lisa Hendrickson-Jack is out called Real Food For Fertility.

In this episode Lily and I chat about:

• protein requirements in fertility and why women need more protein
• if you should be intermittent fasting if you're TTC
• the deal with soy and women's hormones
• a look at what's included in Real Food for Fertility
