Get Pregnant Naturally How to Cook Easy Recipes that are Good for Fertility
Caitlin Townsend joins us today as we're digging into how to cook foods that are good for your fertility.
Let’s face it changing our diet can be challenging. Our regular go-to snacks and food items may no longer match our new lifestyle.
We may feel that eating healthy for our fertility means chopping all day in the kitchen – but it doesn’t have to be that way.
Before you embark on a change – it’s important to establish your WHY.
If you are here right now – it’s to prepare your body for a baby with your partner.
Yep, we’re in this together.
And does it suck giving up your favorite foods – yes it does (I’ve been there). But after eating the standard western diet for years and literally seeing my health crash, what I know for sure is what we place on our fork every day is critical for our health...especially our preconception health.
So if you are looking for easy options that don’t have you spending all day in the kitchen, I’m excited to welcome Caitlin Townsend to the podcast. Caitlin is a Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioner as well as a Chef trained at The Culinary Institute of America.
This episode is for you if:
- You are ready to start the elimination diet and/or the AIP (autoimmune protocol diet) but you have no idea what you’ll eat (hint it’s not about starvation)
- You want to eat delicious food that doesn’t take hours to make (who doesn’t – and yes it’s possible).
- You’re stuck in a rut and sick of making the same old “fertility-friendly” foods – that don’t satisfy your cravings.
In this episode you’ll learn:
1) How to make eating the right foods for fertility actually taste good and satisfies your cravings.
2) How do we save time so that we don’t spend all day in the kitchen.
3) Easy options for the elimination diet (check out episode – How and Why To Do The Elimination Diet) and AIP diet.
4) Fast breakfast/lunch/dinner ideas and snack options that will keep you satiated.
5) Keeping your blood sugar stable is KEY for fertility our top foods to keep you from getting “hangry”.
