Pre-Conception Nutrition

Let's talk about something that has dumbfounded me for years; Pre-Conception Planning. How often does it happen? And how often does it happen to the extent that it should? Obviously some couples get pregnant on accident, so no planning can be done in that case but having a baby is a BIG deal and if we're planning on it, shouldn't we really PLAN it? We need to make sure our bodies are ready to create another person, after all. You'll never see someone who breeds race horses breeding their sickest horse, they breed their healthiest of course! So why don't we treat our own reproduction like this? Why don't we make sure we are at optimal health before we try and conceive? For most people, maybe it's the length of time it takes to prepare your body.

​-If you've been eating the Standard American Diet then I recommend 2-3 years of a nutrient dense diet before conceiving.
-If you've been eating well I still recommend 6 months to a year of preparation.

​Another huge disconnect is the mans role in pre-conception preparation. The mans health has a HUGE effect on the baby's health. Something as simple as a Zinc deficiency in a man can cause fertility issues and miscarriage. Another 'not so fun' fact is the effect that smoking has on sperm, it's actually more damaging for a man to smoke the year before pregnancy than the woman to smoke through her pregnancy! Men need to step up when it comes to Pre-Conception. They need to be eating the same diet as the woman and they need to be fully on board! 
​



I'd love to tell you what would be ideal for pre-conception, but this is just a little introduction to my upcoming workshop for Pre-Conception Planning. Over the next few months I will be working with one of my other classmates who is also a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner to come up with an entire nutritional protocol for couples wanting to conceive. I just wanted to explain the importance of this kind of planning and see who might be interested in a workshop like this? Email me your interest! forestandfieldnutrition@gmail.com
