Wanna get pregnant?

Quit eating low fat dairy foods:

A diet rich in ice cream and other high-fat dairy foods may lower the risk of one type of infertility, a study suggests. It sounds too good to be true and probably is, some doctors say.But the findings are bound to get attention because they are from the well-known Nurses Health Study at the Harvard School of Public Health and were published Wednesday in the European journal Human Reproduction.

Researchers found that women who ate two or more low-fat dairy products a day were nearly twice as likely to have trouble conceiving because of lack of ovulation than women who ate less than one serving of such foods a week.

Conversely, women who ate at least one fatty dairy food a day were 27 percent less likely to have this problem.

So go ahead and have that pint of Rocky Road. One day your kid will thank you. Heck, make it a quart, and one day your triplets may thank you!

    I know it sounds funny, but the reason that full fat ice cream
    and milk works because our bodies need healthy fats to function
    properly including to reproduce. Without healthy fats we
    don’t absorb the vitamins we need, esp the fat soluble ones
    Vitamins A,D,E and K and we’ll be more prone to disease.
    Key factor though, those dairy products really have to be from
    cows that have eaten what nature intended - grass. By consuming
    the products of properly fed livestock, our bodies get the
    disease fighting, obesity reducing Omega 3 fats.
    Cows that eat grains (which is how industrialized food production
    now works) produce meat and dairy that is unheathfully skewed to
    Omega 6s. Try reading “Pasture Perfect” or “The Untold Story of
    Milk” This stuff is real.
