About this listen

 Maria is joined by Julia Young, a seasoned fertility nutritionist, who shares key insights on nutrition and fertility. 1. **Foods to Boost Fertility**: - Emphasize a Mediterranean diet—rich in fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, good fats (e.g., avocados, olive oil), and moderate dairy. - Minimize red meat and sweet foods. 2. **Foods to Avoid**: - Steer clear of ultra-processed foods, sugary drinks, and refined carbohydrates. - Avoid low-fat diets and limit alcohol and caffeine, which can negatively affect hormone balance. 3. **Diet Types & Fertility**: - Vegan, vegetarian, and keto diets can impact nutrient levels crucial for fertility. - Ensure adequate iron, B12, protein, and choline intake, especially on restrictive diets. 4. **Meal Timing**: - Avoid skipping meals, especially breakfast. A 12-hour overnight fast and avoiding late-night eating can support fertility. 5. **Artificial Sweeteners**: - Limit their use as they can disrupt gut health and increase sugar cravings. **Connect with Julia**: Visit [www.juliayoungnutrition.com](http://www.juliayoungnutrition.com) for resources, free training, and to book a fertility review. **Join Maria's Community**: Follow on Instagram @FitnessFertility and visit [fitnessfertility.com](http://www.fitnessfertility.com) for free workouts and more.
