(Best Of) Understanding the Gut-Fertility Connection with Stefanie Valakas

This was another popular episode looking at fertility from within.

Stefanie Valakas joined Sandra to uncover the gut-fertility connection better. Stefanie and Sandra covered three main areas looking at the relationship between the gut microbiome and fertility, nutrition for reproductive health as well as the gut-hormone connection. This episode covered:

How the gut microbiome impacts reproductive health including specific bacteria in the gut that are particularly beneficial or detrimental to fertility
Key nutrients to focus on if you’re trying to conceive, two of which may not be on your radar
How do conditions such as PCOS or Endometriosis impact digestive health and vice versa
Stefanie’s supplementation strategy and much more!

Stefanie is a wealth of information and her passion for nutrition in this space is really echoed in this episode.
