A healthy, unpolluted and non-toxic environment is essential for optimum fertility. Everything in our macro and micro environments impacts on our health and fertility. Chemicals damage our health. They also have a huge impact on the Earth's delicate ecosystems and, not surprisingly, on the sperm and egg that will eventually become an embryo. That is why it is so important to make positive changes in order to overcome fertility problems and/or simply have the healthiest possible baby.
Everything you are exposed to, or do, for at least 120 days prior to a conception attempt will have huge repercussions on your ability to conceive, but even more importantly will have a dramatic impact on the health of your prospective child. Pesticides, herbicides and many other chemicals are not only toxic to our systems but they also imbalance fertility and hormonal levels in animals and humans. They mimic our own hormones, particularly oestrogen, and end up blocking receptors for other hormones such as testosterone. For women this is a problem because it enhances oestrogen dominance, leading to hormonal 'disproportion' and contributing to conditions such as endometriosis and fibroids. For men it disrupts testosterone balance and therefore healthy sperm production. Finally, it also disrupts embryonic development, particularly in relation to sexual development and reproductive function later in life. You can make a difference and safeguard your health, and the health of your prospective family, by changing your habits, namely dietary, lifestyle and even your cleaning and pest control of course!
From the outset, however, I must be clear that although every positive change is very important, each is but a single piece of the optimum fertility puzzle. Only together can they generate the necessary synergy to create profound and positive change. A whole person approach, taking all the pieces of the puzzle into consideration, is the essential way to restore and optimise natural fertility in men or women.
I have identified 11 key areas making up the platform I named the 11 Pillars of Fertility, which underpins my natural fertility treatment approach. In order to create the result many couples yearn for: The baby of their dream--these key areas require diligent and simultaneous implementation.
One of these important areas addresses the need to avoid toxic exposure to chemicals such as pesticides in order to truly optimise a couple's fertility as well as safeguard the health of a prospective child.
Fertility is not an isolated 'event' it is intrinsically connected with emotional, whole body and even (believe it or not) spiritual health. The body and the spirit are constantly striving towards balance, good health, fertility, energy and happiness. The problem is that due to our hectic lifestyles, health compromises and poor daily choices, we often overlook the basic requirements for incredible health and optimum fertility.We only take care of ourselves when something breaks down rather than making daily choices that maintain our most precious possession to the absolute best of our ability.
Thankfully, given the right circumstances, the human body is capable of seemingly miraculous shifts. It takes sufficient time, energy, nutrients, lifestyle changes and other desirable conditions, but at any time, the choice is yours. You can choose to take the time to listen to your body, to learn from it and work with it.
There are empowering and endless possibilities, even in cases where all hope had previously been lost for couples who take the time and take action! Keep the faith.
