Summary

239: In this episode, I sit down with the founders of WeNatal to talk all about fertility and the nutrients our bodies need for a healthy pregnancy. As many of you know, I’ve already declared 2025 my year of fertility, and I’m on a mission to learn everything I can to prepare for pregnancy. We talk about fertility myths, so-called "geriatric pregnancies," and the biggest factors affecting conception today. Both founders have experienced miscarriages, which led them to create a prenatal that truly supports the body’s needs. If you’re hoping to get pregnant this year or next, this episode is one you won’t want to miss. Topics Discussed: What nutrients are essential for a healthy pregnancy? How do stress and sleep impact fertility? What are the biggest misconceptions about "geriatric pregnancies"? How can men improve their fertility? What lifestyle changes support conception and a healthy baby?

0:00.0	On today's episode of the Real Foodology Podcast. Why we even got into this business of
0:05.1	we natal was when we saw that there is a fertility crisis that we're living in that's very
0:11.3	similar to the chronic disease epidemic that we're seeing. And fertility is just kind of one of
0:16.8	those diseases. Hello friends. Welcome back to another episode of the Real Foodology podcast.
0:23.2	Today, I sit down with the founders of Wii Natal and we talk all about fertility.
0:29.1	Y'all know, I already claimed this a couple months ago on the podcast that 2025 is going to be
0:33.3	the year of fertility for me.
0:34.9	I'm hoping to be pregnant by the end of this year.
0:39.8	And I am on a deep dive talking to as many experts as I can around this subject because unfortunately we're
0:44.9	also dealing with a fertility crisis in this country right now. But fear not. I've got a lot of
0:50.5	amazing episodes that have already come out. I have more coming out. And this one is
0:55.4	definitely one that you are not going to want to miss. Both of them went through miscarriages,

1:13.0	pregnancy. And as a result, they created we natal. We talk a lot about myths around fertility,
1:18.9	geriatric pregnancies, and what you really need to know about that. We talk a lot about
1:23.9	what I should be personally taking myself if I'm hoping to be pregnant by July.
1:28.7	So if there's anybody listening that's like, I'm really hoping to be pregnant this year or next
1:32.0	year, you're definitely not going to want to miss this. It was an amazing episode. I cried.
1:36.8	We got emotional. I really enjoyed this. And I hope you do too. And I hope that it helps you
1:42.0	on your fertility journey if you're on one. And if you have any
1:45.1	friends that are on fertility journeys, please send this to them. My heart goes out to you if you are
