In today’s episode, I break down why the popular “Mediterranean diet for fertility” recommendation isn’t as helpful—or realistic—as many women are led to believe.
While the Mediterranean diet has been studied for health and fertility, the truth is that the lifestyle in Mediterranean regions is radically different from life in the U.S. From daily walking to fresh local food to slower meals and lower cortisol loads, these cultural differences make it impossible to truly replicate the Mediterranean experience through food alone.
I share why I don’t recommend this diet for women going through IVF or other fertility treatments, what parts of it are beneficial, and how to build a sustainable eating plan that actually meets your personal fertility needs—without overwhelm and without generic meal plans that don’t work.
