Ice Cream for Fertility?
Filed in archive Infertility on February 28, 2007
Will eating ice cream improve your chances of getting pregnant? A recent study done by Harvard researchers suggests that a fat-soluble substance found in whole milk products might improve ovulation.
Ivanhoe's Medical Breakthrough reports:
Researchers from Harvard School of Public Health in Boston analyzed information from 18,555 women who tried to get pregnant between 1991 and 1999. The women reported what they ate in a survey completed every two years during the study. Women who ate two or more servings of low fat dairy foods a day increased their risk of ovulation-related Infertility by 85 percent. Women who ate about one high-fat dairy food a day reduced their risk of this kind of infertility.
This is not a permit to start eating ice cream from morning to night. You still have to watch out for those exploding fat cells. Besides, there's no guarantee that the theory will work for you. It may possibly treat one type of infertility. An article in CNN News.com warns:
Even the researchers say women should not make too much of these results, which are based on reports of what women said they ate over many years -- not a rigorous, scientific experiment where specific dietary factors could be studied in isolation.
