Ice cream can help women get pregnant

Ice cream can help women get pregnant

Extract:

"Eating ice cream and drinking full-fat milk can significantly improve women's chances of getting pregnant, scientists say.

US researchers found that women who consumed a lot of low-fat dairy products such as skimmed milk were almost twice as likely to suffer period-related fertility problems as those who did not.

Around a quarter of women who have difficulties becoming pregnant have ovulatory disorders. The main symptoms are stopping having periods or irregular periods.

The research found that in comparison to those who ate ice cream less than once a week, participants who did so at least twice a week were almost 40 per cent less likely to fail to become pregnant because of period-related infertility."

Well, I'm all in favour of dissuading people to avoid skimmed milk, which is an abomination...)o: but I doubt that eating more ice cream is meaningful advice to give to women experiencing fertility problems. - Obesity is a significant factor in infertility and obesity is caused by sodium retention and the fluid retention it causes. The best, safest and most reliable way to reduce fluid retention and obesity is to minimise salt intake; it follows then that infertile women should be advised to eat less salt. This would be far more effective, and also good for the health of any baby that might then be conceived, than the ice cream gimmick!
