More DescriptionThere are a few foods and nutrients that play a more important role than others when it comes to fertilization. Likewise, those undergoing IVF treatments--both men and women--should avoid certain foods during IVF.
Experts recommend avoiding soy products, which have estrogen-like qualities that may reduce fertility. However, you may take some fermented forms of soy such as tempeh or miso.
Don't eat or drink anything that contains non-natural sugars and GMO foods. Instead of eating refined sugars, processed foods and beverages, try using honey, maple syrup, agave, or stevia.
Reduce your intake of caffeine, which is found in tea, coffee, cola, or chocolate. Limit caffeine consumption by taking just two cups of coffee or tea daily. Caffeine also increases your risk of miscarriage and reduces the body's absorption of iron and calcium.
Avoid alcohol, which acts as a diuretic that increases the excretion of fertility nutrients such as folic acid and zinc. It is also a toxic to eggs and sperms, as well as the baby when you are pregnant.
