Reconsider your protein sources
Protein is a key part of any diet, but certain sources may be especially beneficial for fertility.
A 2019 study suggests that following a Mediterranean-style diet may improve fertility. These types of diets are generally higher in fish and lower in red and processed meats. Mediterranean-style diets also tend to be higher in antioxidants and omega-3 fatty acids.
And there’s more reason to consider adding more fish to your diet: A 2018 study found that higher fish consumption was linked to a higher rate of live births following the use of assisted reproductive technology, such as in vitro fertilization.
