Katie Shore is a nutritional therapy practitioner and ION lecturer who specialises in fertility, pregnancy, and women’s reproductive health. In this episode of the recently relaunched Optimum Nutrition podcast, Katie focuses on fertility. She busts myths and addresses misconceptions about why it might be more difficult for some people to get pregnant, joined by host Hatty Willmoth, a journalist and communications officer at ION. Is it true that a woman’s fertility drops off a cliff when she turns 35? Are conditions such as PCOS and endometriosis mean you just won’t have kids? Should overweight women prioritise getting slimmer before trying for a baby? Which supplements make a difference? And what role do lifestyle factors, like stress and pollutants, play?
This episode includes references to female anatomy and discussion of heavier themes such as trauma and baby loss. Listener discretion is advised.
