I probably sound like a broken record, but hey, if you didn't know, oxidative stress is a major player in men's infertility. And at the moment we have very expensive and limited ways to find out just how much it is affecting each man. It makes sense that supplements designed to combat oxidative stress would be the antidote. Right??!
Plot twist!
You'll need to listen to the end to hear all about which supplements we have researched, what the WHO recommends about male supplements, the risks of taking them when you don't need them, and some practical (and safe) changes we can make.

TIMESTAMPS
0:35 Sperm health is sooo important
1:35 Why current sperm tests are letting us down
3:29 Our current accessibility to testing oxidative damage
5:14 The six supplements that possibly make a difference
10:00 What the WHO recommends
10:52 When taking supplements is a bad thing
11:39 Three ways you can find out if you need supplements
14:00 Summary of all of the above

Fertility Foods downloadable for men to tweak their diet.

We'll break it down and spill the tea on what exactly insulin resistance is, what causes it, and how it messes with our precious bodies. We'll tackle the nitty-gritty details, from metabolic mayhem to the way it impacts our overall health - including fertility.

TIMESTAMPS
00:25 What is normal insulin function?
01:00 When insulin doesn't work as it should.
01:23 Nightclubs and bouncers
02:15 Chicken or egg? Insulin resistance v. chronic inflammation
04:28 What causes insulin resistance?
06:20 How can you know if you have insulin resistance?

Here's the episode link when 'insulin resistance' next drops into your local pub quiz night.

Wanna know if you're eating right to get pregnant faster? Don't be like the other 97%* of women who are missing out on some key foods (and baby-loving nutrients!). Get your Fertility Favourite Foods checklist here.

*A weirdly specific number, yes. A study of >5000 women in NZ found that most of them weren't eating enough of the foods we know help make the best babies. For more of a shocker, a similar study in Australia showed that 0% were eating ideally (even though two-thirds of them thought they were!)
