Leafy greens/smelly veg!!! Pomegranate, beetroot,..... Basically there’s loads of ‘good’ foods for fertility but you really need to cut back on sugary foods (not natural sugars) and avoid processed foods. Try to have a well balanced diet and cook from scratch a lot. Drink plenty of water and avoid alcohol and caffiene as much as you can. The IVF diet by Zita West is a good guide. Even if you’re not considering ivf at this stage, it’s a good guide for a fertility diet in general x

Lots of protein for egg health and brazil nuts are really good for sperm.
