Infertility Issues? Super Foods Can Help

You and your partner are trying to create mini-mes but have experienced a little trouble along the way. You've been trying for months but don't have a pregnancy to show for it.

Before heading to your doctor to begin invasive testing, you may want to try your own fertility treatments by eating natural super foods.

A major super food is buckwheat, a healthy grain that significantly drops insulin and testosterone levels, which is a process that increases ovulation. When you're ovulating, your chances of conceiving are that much higher. Also, to those who need to eat gluten-free, buckwheat is 100 percent free of wheat (even though it's mentioned in its name).

So... who is eating these foods to help boost fertility? The woman or the man?

Both.

Men and women both have an endocrine system, which is critical for making babies. It wouldn't hurt if your man ate these foods with you.

Founder of the Food Therapy Program, Alisa Vitti, shares the best super foods to help increase your fertility, why these foods are so beneficial for conceiving and foods to stay away from when you're trying to procreate.
