Abstract in brief

  • The relationship between diet and human fertility is supported by evidence showing that supplemental folic acid, especially at higher doses, is linked to reduced infertility, lower pregnancy loss, and higher success in infertility treatments.
  • While vitamin D may not play a significant role in fertility unless there is a deficiency, antioxidant supplements do not benefit women undergoing infertility treatments but may help men if they are supplemented, although specific antioxidants and doses remain unclear.
  • Consuming healthy diets rich in seafood, poultry, grains, fruits, and vegetables is associated with better fertility outcomes, and evidence suggests that soy and moderate alcohol or caffeine intake are not harmful and may even have some beneficial effects on fertility.]

@PFagan87 With women, soy has a positive effect on fertility. Those 1980's studies are well out of date in newer nutritional understanding. https://t.co/aNBuezi7gZ
