The Fertility Reset

What Not to Eat Before IVF


Listen Later

In this completely unscripted, unfiltered episode of The Fertility Reset, Susan goes totally off the cuff to tackle one of the most toxic, stress-inducing questions dominating the fertility space right now: "What should I NOT eat before IVF?" If your social media algorithm is constantly feeding you rigid rules about cutting out gluten, abandoning all added sugars, or living strictly on salmon and broccoli, you need to hear this. As a registered dietitian with a Master’s degree and over 14 years of experience (plus her own 5.5-year battle with infertility), Susan breaks down why microscopic food restrictions are likely doing your reproductive system more harm than good.

Tune in to discover why under-eating and stress are the real culprits down-regulating your fertility, why your body needs to feel nourished to step out of "starvation mode," and how enjoying that bowl of ice cream might just be the best thing you can do for your peace of mind and your upcoming cycle.
