Guacamole

How about making some guacamole? Have it as a dip with crudites, enjoy with fajitas or as an accompaniment to a Chilli con carne. Avocados are a nutrient dense plant based food that is high in many nutrients particularly for fertility, such as;

- Monounsaturated fatty acids - consuming these fats is associated with lower rates of ovulatory infertility, these fats can also help decrease inflammation in the body.

- Folate - a B vitamin which plays a role in preventing birth defects and impacts egg quality. Folate is also needed for making new DNA and proteins and is critical in detoxification.

- Insoluble and soluble fibre - to support gut health and healthy gut bacteria.
