Can specific foods enhance fertility for pregnancy at 30?

Hi, I'm a 30-year-old female trying to conceive. Are there particular foods or nutrients that can boost fertility and improve my chances of getting pregnant?

Answered on 22nd July '24

When trying to get pregnant, it's important to eat a variety of healthy foods. Include plenty of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and low-fat meats in your diet. Foods with folate, like green leafy vegetables and legumes, are helpful. Don’t forget iron and calcium. Drinking lots of water and having a balanced diet can also boost your fertility.

i am 17 years old and i was found as a pcos person in my 12 years of age and now i am having regular periods from 4 to 5 months but i want to know about the diet plan which i can include in my daily task and exercise as well espicially for hair

Female | 17

In terms of diet for PCOS and hair, try to include a balanced diet made up of a lot of fruits, green vegetables, and whole grains in your meal. Avoid sugar and junk food in your diet. Regular physical activities also assist with PCOS symptoms. On the other hand, for your hair, you should eat a balanced diet with adequate amounts of vitamins and minerals, especially biotin, which is found in nuts and legumes, such as lentils, zinc in chicken and sardines, and iron in red meat and spinach. Remember, drinking enough water is also important.

I've heard a lot about the benefits of omega-3 fatty acids. What are some good dietary sources of omega-3s, and how much should I be consuming daily?

Female | 28

Dietary food sources of omega 3 fatty acids are : Flaxseeds, chia seeds, egg yolks, salmon (Indian rawas) , mackerel (Bangda). But as a therapeutic diet expert, I would always recommend taking omega 3 fish oil supplement. Daily requirement is 1g which means you will have to take 3 capsules to get your requirement fulfilled. For people who have lot of inflammation, diabetes, arthritis, thyroid or any infection in the body, the requirement can increase upto 2000 (6 capsules) to 3000 mg (9 capsules) of omega 3 to reach 50% of the optimal range. My everytime and best brand : Nutrilite Salmon Omega 3 capsules. ✅

My mother is suffering with diabetes. She has been said to limit rice consumption. We're eating white rice in home. However,as we have heard from youtube that brown rice is good for diabetes now we switched to this.Will it make consequences in the future if over consumed?

Female | 50

Brown rice is surely a better option for diabetes than white rice which consists of more fiber and nutrients than brown rice. However, regardless of the kind of rice consumed, overconsumption can result in high blood sugar levels. Be careful to balance the number of portion sizes with other healthy foods like vegetables and lean proteins. If your mother goes through health conditions like drinking more water than usual, using the restroom frequently, or being tired all the time, it is necessary to consult a doctor for a proper diagnosis.

Consume nutritious foods instead - fruits, and vege­tables provide vitamins, lean prote­ins build muscle, and whole grains give fibe­r. Avoid sugary drinks filled with empty calories.

My toddler has severe food allergies. How can I ensure he gets a balanced diet while avoiding allergens, and what are some safe, nutritious alternatives?

Female | 33

A diet that is complete and free from allergens is essential. Milk, eggs, soy, wheat, peanuts, tree nuts, fish, and shellfish are the most commonly found allergens. It is important to search for other alternatives that are safe and nutritious, such as fruit, vegetables, rice, quinoa, beans, and meats. A dietitian can support you in developing a customized meal plan to make sure your child gets all the necessary nutrients. It is also necessary to monitor the symptoms of rashes, stomachache, vomiting, and shortness of breath that might appear after consuming food. If you recognize any of these symptoms, the advice is to stop feeding them that food and to contact an allergist for further testing and evaluation.

Female | 23

It's important to know the cause of you being underweight. It may be a result of you not eating enough or a medical problem. A doctor can assist you in determining the reason. Try to eat more high-calorie foods such as nuts, avocados, and cheese. Additionally, strength training exercises can be a way to achieve muscle mass. Also, ensure that you are hydrated and sleep well enough.

I'm only a teenager. Is it okay for me to take tianshi slimming tea

Female | 16

The effects of some slimming teas can be strong for our bodies. These teas mainly get rid of our weight by causing us to be less bathroom-bound. Therefore, dehydration, diarrhea, and stomach pain as well as heart issues may occur. It's essential to be cautious with such teas, especially at your age. You should rather go for healthy eating and exercise as a means of weight management.

Can i take creatine and whey protein after getting tb

Male | 21

After contracting TB, it is important to be cautious if you are using creatine and whey protein. These supplements can put undue stress on your body, which is still in recovery. It is better to wait until you have made a full recovery and your doctor has given you clearance before integrating them into your meal plan. Focus on strengthening your body through natural foods rather than relying solely on supplements.

I recently had my gallbladder removed and have been experiencing digestive issues. What kind of diet should I follow to manage these symptoms?

Male | 37

Even after gallbladder surgery, diarrhea, bloating, or gas is a common problem. This happens because the gallbladder is one of the key players in the digestion of fats and without it, the body struggles with the digestion of fatty foods. Eating a low-fat diet is one way to lessen these symptoms. Try consuming more fruits, vegetables, lean meats, and whole grains. Avoid greasy, fried, and spicy foods as they can cause discomfort. Eating small, frequent meals throughout the day can also help. Your body might need some time to get used to the new condition, so have patience and monitor how it reacts to different foods.

Tsh value -27.5 mg and Sugar leval 449 . Need diet plan and foods to regulate.

Female | 55

Your TSH leve­l is high at 27.5 mg. Sugar level's also ele­vated - 449. These numbe­rs suggest thyroid issues might exist. Uncontrolle­d blood sugar too. High TSH causes fatigue, and weight gain. Ele­vated sugars lead to exce­ssive thirst and frequent urination. Die­t changes can help regulate­ both conditions. Focus on veggies, fruits, and whole grains. Limit sugary foods and drinks. Wate­r, herbal teas are be­tter options. Regular physical activity aids manageme­nt too.

I heard that drinking lemon water in the morning can help with digestion and weight loss. Is there any truth to this, and are there any other simple dietary changes that can have a big impact on my health?

Male | 25

Lemon water is a good source of Vitamin C due to its citric acid content. This vitamin helps the body absorb iron more easily. Drinking lemon water can aid in weight loss by promoting hydration and reducing calorie intake. To shed extra pounds, try eating more fruits and vegetables, cutting back on sweetened beverages, and replacing refined grains with whole grains. These changes can improve your health, aid digestion, and help maintain a healthy weight.
