In this episode, I was joined by dietitian Brooke Boskovich to discuss strategies for optimizing your fertility through your nutrition and lifestyle. Brooke provided recommendations for foods and supplements to support fertility for both men and women. We also discussed the connection between gut health and fertility, and tips for improving gut health. Despite much of the focus being on women when it comes to fertility, there are also many considerations for men that were covered in this episode.
