Top 10 Fertility-Boosting Foods You Should Be Eating

When it comes to optimising fertility, the foundation lies in nutrient-rich, whole foods that nourish your body and support reproductive health. Some foods go the extra mile, packing an abundance of essential fertility nutrients, and I like to call these fertility-boosting superfoods. The best part? These aren’t exotic or hard-to-find ingredients. They’re everyday foods that give you more bang for your buck in terms of nutrition.

Here are the top 10 fertility-boosting foods you should be eating:

1. Eggs

Eggs are a powerhouse of fertility nutrition, rich in complete protein, healthy fats, and cholesterol. The yolks, in particular, are abundant in key fertility nutrients, including choline, which plays a crucial role in foetal brain development and placenta health.

Aim to include two to three eggs per day if you tolerate them well. If you have an egg sensitivity or allergy, liver is a great alternative source of choline.

2. Leafy Green Vegetables

Leafy greens such as spinach, kale, and collard greens are loaded with essential fertility nutrients, including folate, iron, and vitamin K1. They also contain carotenoids, which support egg quality by reducing oxidative stress in the ovaries.

Aim for at least one cup of leafy greens with every meal.

3. Liver

Nature’s multivitamin, liver is one of the most nutrient-dense foods available. It provides significant amounts of vitamin A, B vitamins, iron, folate, choline, and zinc—all vital for fertility.

Start with organic chicken liver and try incorporating it into meals once a week.

4. Oily Fish

Cold-water oily fish such as salmon, mackerel, and sardines are the best sources of DHA, an omega-3 fatty acid essential for foetal brain development and reducing inflammation.

Aim for two to three servings per week and choose fish with high DHA and low mercury levels (use the SMASH acronym: Salmon, Mackerel, Anchovies, Sardines, Herring).

5. Bone Broth, Meat on-the-Bone & Slow-Cooked Meat

Homemade bone broth is rich in collagen, gelatine, glycine, and essential minerals that support fertility and pregnancy. Meat cooked on the bone provides these nutrients too, helping to support skin, gut, and joint health.

Include slow-cooked meats and bone broth regularly in your diet.
