Lower inflammation, good sleep, diet high in fruits & vegetables, grain. Healthy weight. If you have dairy have whole versions i.e. whole milk yogurt, avoid processed dairy i.e. skimmed milk. Meats - eat fish 4-6 ounces 3 times a week. Not too much fish if pregnant because of mercury, avoid raw seafood for risk of infection. No processed meats (hotdogs, deli meat), red meat in moderation/organic. Avoid added sugar and artificial sugar - cause inflammation & stress. Lowering inflammation is good. Long story short have a healthy diet, everything moderation , have good sleeping habits & exercise. You can eat the bad things, just don't make a habit of it. SUPPLEMENTS: take folic acid, take prenatal vitamins, take vit d, - 1000 IUD omega 3 - 1 gram, CoQ10 - 200mg x3 day. Excellent as always

[@faizabenameur6747]

thank you for summing that up

[@ChinweOfulue]

Thank you for the information

[@memastarful]

I couldn't get pregnant for many years but then I started drinking copious amounts of pure pomegranate juice every day. After a month after drinking pomegranate juice, I got pregnant right away with a healthy baby girl.

[@purepotentialityNow]

Beautiful 😊😊😊 Fabulous Blessings

[@memastarful]

@MrSagarcool14 duh 🙄

[@keepyoursins]

​@@memastarful'twas a joke

[@memastarful]

@@keepyoursins yep I'm aware

[@codykrueger796]

Fascinating as that would follow the doctrine of signatures, (if it looks like body part, it is good for it). I wonder if that was specifically due to something in pomegranate juice, did any research specifically precipitate this - like ypu read it helps conception?

[@stephanieanderson5379]

Love this so much. I’m a registered dietitian and this whole conversation is spot on. Thank you for having a realistic take on a healthy balanced diet and consuming minimally processed foods from all food groups as well as avoiding/limiting added sugar and artificial sweetener! This is so important.

[@DrinkingStar]

Excellent video in dispensing this nutritional advise. Dr. Crawford confirmed everything I learned in getting my Master's Degree in human nutrition in the 1990s. As an addendum to body fat and female fertility, there was an article, whose title I do not recall, in the 1970s in Scientific American that mentioned girls in Puerto Rica where experiencing their 1st menses at a much earlier age than typically expected and that pilgrim girls in New England in early colonial times had a delayed menses of several years. The earlier than expected menses observed in Puerto Rican girls was associated with the beef they were eating which had high levels of hormones that was given to cows to make the cows heavier. The delayed 1st menses of the pilgrim girls was associated with their very low body fat.

Just looking at dr. Natalie Crawford increased my fertility. Thanks.

[@megamanx766]

Lol

[@adrenalineryan]

Hell brother

[@IUTIUBES]

This woman seems so smart and generous, thank you so much!

[@Wholefoodshealth]

Good info. Can’t tell you how many patients of mine have gotten pregnant after changing their diet and getting their vitamin D over 40. Vitamin D levels in insulin resistance, pretty much involve everything in our bodies, including fertility.

[@Tlassic]

We couldn’t get pregnant for a year, and then I as a male started taking the zinc and coq10 and L carnetine and boom 6 weeks later she’s pregnant

[@gtillustrated2304]

Any particular L Carnetine brand you recommend?

[@Tlassic]

@@gtillustrated2304 I used naturalife labs

[@CP-wv2qs]

Really?

[@yaqeentaha4786]

Acetyl L carnitine ?? what strength plz ?

[@Tlassic]

[@abc_cba]

Dr. Hubermann was blushing just looking at Dr. Crawford. Look at the gaze at his eyes 😂😂😂

[@DrVanessaBrooks]

Folate or folic acid??? Huge difference and what about methylfolate? Isn’t there a correlation with folic acid and some miscarriages etc? It’s folic acid manufactured and added into our diet starting in 1993?

[@Shmay7032]

Unfortunately there's no research that says methylated folate is effective (even though it's better in theory there is no way to produce ethical data around this) so we must take folic acid or at this point taking both methyl folate and folic acid is best practice.

[@Kellys_kitten_squad]

Have you researched the mfr gene and folic acid?

[@TheTruth-fully]

Amazing information. Thank you.

[@jazzed4us]

All I care about is how brilliant, beautiful and bold Dr Hubberman is. How is this man single ? Or is he ? I’ve never had such a big crush on someone I didn’t know personally. He’s perfection

[@Christina0925]

No he is not aingle

[@tamartamunanemsadze7750]

What is normal BMI?

[@anastasiabogatyreva9508]

18-20

[@anthonyneitzke2521]

I think it's interesting she goes based on bmi because it's pretty easy to have a healthy muscle:fat ratio and yet be classified as overweight on the bmi scale

[@purepotentialityNow]

Fabulous. Thank You So Important 😊😊😊 Blessings Professor

[@ashtenbarnes]

she should have mentioned eating quality animal products sooner in the video. As well as addressing mineral deficiencies such as Zinc, copper, magnesium, potassium. I also disagree with tofu & soy based products. Bioavailability is key.

[@anthonyneitzke2521]

Lol right? You can get antioxidants from animal organs and fats, you don't need to eat tofu. She claims bacon is highly processed and then says tofu is perfectly fine lol

[@imjustsaying670]

@@anthonyneitzke2521 bacon is trash we can all agree on that. Tasty trash.

[@givehuggs]

Why is the audio so bad?It keeps going silent and it needs to be rewind and play again for the sounds to come back on.Not sure if this is a youtube glitchy thing happening or if it's this video

[@fernandorosales2789]

I love how reliably health optimization content attracts douchebags in the comments sections. :) I'm not saying bE moRe rESpectFul. It's just funny.

[@Fertilitydrive]

👏👏❤

[@LisaCulton]

There's no reason to eat fruit (full of sugar and basically no vitamins) nor fiber / whole grain (not digestible and no nutrients)

[@berenice__music]

Thank you!

[@anthonyneitzke2521]

Bacon is not highly processed. It is smoked pork belly that is sliced

[@berenice__music]

Check the list of ingredients

[@seanykinz]

Could not stand her... she was spitting off the most generalized information without any real background or reasoning to nutrition

[@olympiaolympia1162]

👍

[@ashtenbarnes]

Generalized inflammation without addressing how to reduce it and what is actually causing it within the daily diet and lifestyle habits.

[@imjustsaying670]

Dairy is trash... so is tofu especially if your estrogen is already off

[@berenice__music]

When she said tofu is not bad for you I realised I can't trust anything she says.

[@imjustsaying670]

right

[@DaboooogA]

As generic as advice can possibly be

[@tayebehshalmani6157]

Can't really trust most of her nutrition advice tbh...

[@Magickfae]

Mmmmmmk. Lol

[@courtneygriffin3584]

Her information nutritionally is so inaccurate, main stream and outdated. Unimpressed.

[@central_scrutinizr]

Can you point us listeners towards some more accurate info then?

[@Magickfae]

Or which information is inaccurate?

[@anthonyneitzke2521]

You should look into the Weston A Price foundation. They have loads of great studies related to nutrition and health
