The Brian Keane Podcast

Ali is a nutritionist and registered dietician that specializes in subfertility and pre pregnancy preparation.

She has extensive experience working with people with PCOS and subfertility and contributed to the National Clinical Guidelines for Nutrition in Pregnancy and she has also completed training in Behavior Change, the low FODMAP diet and PCOS.

Today's podcast is for anybody interested in preparing their body for pregnancy in the next 6-12 months.

Although the plan was to focus was on female fertility, we talk a lot about how men can prepare too (if a couple is struggling).

Please feel free to pass this podcast on to any friends or family members who would benefit from listening.

Here are some of the things we talked about:

- The pre fertility diet (for women and adjustments needed for men)

- The foods to avoid and what to include

- Alcohol and caffeine – can you have them or not?

- Stress management, learning to let go and pregnancy prep

- The main emotional, physical and physiological barriers to planned pregnancy

- The importance of sleep and the best way to track ovulation

- And more

Kirsten is a UK registered dietitian specializing in irritable bowel syndrome.

She is a fully trained low FODMAP dietitian and has incorporated this diet into her Take Control method for optimal results.

Before becoming a low FODMAP dietitian, Kirsten suffered with IBS herself.

After realizing that the low FODMAP diet was only part of the answer, she developed the Take Control method which incorporates a more holistic approach to support IBS sufferers.

As someone who has been an IBS sufferer (although I manage it now) – I needed this podcast so badly several years ago so please share it with anyone you know who may benefit from listening.

Here are some of the things we talked about in today's show:

· The problem with low FODMAP diets and what its missing

· The supplements that may help (and the questions to ask before you start them)

· Biggest food triggers (and why they may not be the ones you think)

· The link between stress, sleep and IBS

· The mixed opinion topics – coffee, caffeine and fasting with IBS

I've been very fortunate that David and his team have given me two free tickets to give away for the event.
