If you delve into any of the popular fertility blo

If you delve into any of the popular fertility blogs, talk to other women going through IVF or even do a ‘Google’ search, you’ll come across pineapples being promoted as an A-grade diet pregnancy hack. The advice is framed along these lines: if you eat a whole pineapple, including the core, before and after the day of implantation then the chance of successful implantation goes up. ⁠
⁠
So, the big, big question is: does it work?! Unfortunately, there is zero scientific evidence to show that pineapples help with embryo implantation during IVF. Like any myth, there is a potential element of truth to it. It is possible, MAYBE, pineapples could help with embryo implantation. Bromelain is an enzyme found naturally in pineapples, and the most concentrated source of bromelain is found in the core, which is why advice is to be eating the core, rather than just drinking the juice, or eating the fleshy outer fruit. The interest in bromelain comes from its potential to reduce inflammation in the body, including in the uterus. It is also a mild blood thinner that some believe can aid in implantation. Interestingly, many doctors prescribe aspirin to women to help with implantation because it is also a blood thinner. But from that connection, you can see why pineapples have attracted interest.⁠

If you have been trying to fall pregnant with poly

If you have been trying to fall pregnant with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), you’ll know that it’s not that easy. PCOS is the most common cause of anovulatory infertility but luckily research does show that there are a few things that you can do to increase your chances of having a healthy pregnancy. One of these things is modest weight loss if you are overweight. So, start with these four tips…⁠
⁠
1. Don’t eat late at night⁠
People who start eating earlier in the day and, end eating earlier have better insulin sensitivity than those eating late at night. And because one of the defining features of PCOS is insulin resistance, it makes sense why avoiding late-night snacks is beneficial.⁠
⁠
2. Eat foods that up your fullness factor⁠
When you feel full, you are less likely to eat too much and reducing calories is the key to losing weight. A minimally processed, or whole food eating plan will make weight loss easier because these foods are more filling. The three nutrients that help with this are fibre, unsaturated fat, and protein.⁠
⁠
3. Watch your ultra-processed food intake⁠
Almost all the food we eat has gone through some form of processing. The problem comes however, when we eat too many ultra-processed foods as they are usually energy dense and nutrient poor. Many are also a very concentrated source of refined carbohydrates, which will spike your blood sugar and insulin levels.⁠
⁠
4. Include adequate protein in your diet⁠
Inadequate protein intake results in the body breaking down muscle mass to get the protein it needs. Your muscle mass has a really big impact on your metabolism, so the less muscle mass you have, the harder it becomes to lose weight, and you’ll soon find yourself in a vicious circle.⁠
