The experts presented five categories of products, the presence of which is necessary in the menu of women who want to get pregnant.
It is about a number of vital substances, such as folic acid, vitamins or vegetable proteins, which increase fertility.
It is noted that only the body, which is sufficiently supplied with nutrients, is able to find energy for pregnancy, while poor nutrition and great stress, on the contrary, can provoke a negative impact.
Folic acid
It is found in asparagus, peanuts, broccoli, regular and Brussels sprouts, eggs or spinach. Folic acid (vitamin B9) promotes hematopoiesis and metabolism, as well as growth processes, which play an important role in the fertilization of the egg.
"A higher level of folic acid can have a positive effect: it not only has a beneficial effect on ovulation and embryo implantation, but also reduces the risk of fetal neural tube defects (for example, spina bifida)," the publication quoted gynecologist Peter Derffler.
Vitamin B6
It is found in broccoli, beans, peas, potatoes and cabbage. According to a study conducted by the University of Massachusetts in Amherst, adequate intake of vitamin B6 increases women's fertility by 40%.
Omega-3
Fatty acids contained in vegetable oils, nuts, salmon or tuna can stimulate blood circulation in the reproductive organs, help improve the quality of cervical mucus and have a beneficial effect on hormonal balance and ovulation.
Zinc
This substance is found in Emmental and Gouda cheeses, oatmeal, wheat, walnuts, lentils, and corn. Zinc is involved in the body's production of reproductive hormones, such as estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone, so women who want to give birth to a child need it.
Vitamin B12
It is found in herring, salmon, Gouda cheese, eggs and sour milk cheese. It is noted that this vitamin increases the body's readiness for conception. While its deficiency is associated with fertility problems.
