65) HE GOT MS AT 15 THEN BUILT THE SCIENCE THAT LINKS WHAT YOU EAT TO WHETHER YOUR IVF WORKS

from IVF DADDIES · host Richard Westoby & Julio Gaggia

At 15 years old he was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. The medical system gave him a protocol. He went looking for something the protocol was missing.What Dr. Connor Curley found in the intersection of nutrition science and chronic disease eventually led him to one of the most underdiscussed questions in fertility medicine: if what you eat can change the course of a neurological condition, what is it doing to your eggs, your sperm, and your embryos right now?This is the episode the supplement industry does not want you to have. Because it distinguishes between what the science actually supports and what the wellness marketing machine is selling you in its place.What this episode covers:Why one in six couples globally faces fertility challenges and why nutrition is the variable that conventional fertility medicine consistently underweights in its treatment protocols.What the actual peer-reviewed science says about specific nutrients and their measurable impact on sperm quality, egg quality, and embryo development.Why endometriosis is one of the most underfunded and underresearched conditions in reproductive medicine despite affecting millions of women currently navigating fertility treatment.How Dr. Curley went from managing his own MS through nutritional intervention to developing Fertility Fix, a science-based product designed specifically for people going through IVF.What nutrients have evidence behind them for reducing miscarriage risk and why most people going through IVF are not taking them because nobody in the clinic mentioned them.Why the conversation about nutrition in fertility is not about replacing medical treatment. It is about giving your medical treatment the biological environment it needs to work.What success looks like when nutrition is treated as part of the protocol rather than an afterthought.One doctor's diagnosis at 15 years old eventually became a resource for families trying to have children.That is the kind of origin story that makes you pay attention to the science.CHAPTERS00:00 Introduction to Dr. Connor Curley and Phytofix02:25 The Journey from MS to Nutrition Science05:07 Exploring Endometriosis and Its Impact on Fertility07:35 The Development of Fertility Fix09:33 The Importance of Nutrition in IVF and Pregnancy10:39 Conclusion and Future DirectionsListening in a browser?

Lawmakers in DC are debating federal protection for IVF. Hundreds of millions of dollars are being invested in slick startups that market fertility treatments for all. But this rapid growth has revealed cracks in the system. Misconception, a new series from Bloomberg’s Prognosis, follows reporter Kristen V. Brown on her own intimate journey as she uncovers the business of fertility. Along the way, she finds a fractured industry — a profit-driven field of medicine that thrives on dueling messages of hope and fear as people gamble everything for a chance at a baby.
