Common questions

What is a good fertility breakfast?

Eggs lead the list: the yolk is the richest everyday source of choline, with B12 and protein alongside. Full-fat Greek yogurt with seeds and berries is the no-cook alternative - research links full-fat dairy with better ovulatory health.

Are eggs good for fertility?

Yes, for both partners. Choline supports early brain development and egg quality, and the protein-fat combination holds blood sugar steadier than a carb-first breakfast.

Is intermittent fasting OK when trying to conceive?

Evidence on fasting and fertility is thin either way. Regular meals make it easier to hit folate, choline and protein targets, so if you fast, keep the eating window nutrient-dense and mention it to your doctor.
