Nutrition & supplements

What the evidence supports, what's still uncertain, and how to tell a well-made product from a well-marketed one.

Prenatals and nutrients

How much folate do I need, and why? MTHFR, folic acid or methylfolate — what matters? For anyone who has been told about MTHFR: what the variant means and what the research supports. What should I know about choline? A nutrient most prenatals skip, and how to tell whether yours does. What should I know about vitamin D?

Supplements and fertility

What does the research say about CoQ10? What does the research say about omega-3s? What does the research say about inositol? What actually helps male fertility? What actually improves egg and sperm quality? CoQ10, DHEA, melatonin, NAC, male antioxidants — each one rated, and what has better evidence than all of them.

Food and product quality

Does what I eat affect my chances? How can I check a supplement's quality? Third-party certification, what the labels mean, and how to spot a good brand. What actually helps, beyond the basics? Diet, omega-3s, vitamin D, CoQ10, inositol — ranked by how good the evidence actually is. What we don't recommend, and why IgG panels, adrenal fatigue testing, IV drips, cleanses — the things we think aren't worth your money, with the reason for each.
