Ultra-processed food: A Hidden Threat to Fertility and Embryo Growth?
from Foodnourish Deep Dives · host Pavlos Giorkas
In today's episode we're diving into groundbreaking research on how ultra-processed food (UPF) impacts couples trying to conceive.Drawing from a major prospective cohort study, we explore the surprising discovery that a man's diet may be just as critical for fertility as a woman's.We discuss findings linking higher paternal UPF intake to reduced fertility and maternal consumption to slower embryonic growth and smaller yolk sac volume early in pregnancy.Join us as we unpack these sex-specific findings and what they mean for the future of preconception care.References:https://doi.org/10.1093/humrep/deag023https://academic.oup.com/humrep/article/doi/10.1093/humrep/deag023/7633742Support our workSupport our work.
