According to statistical data, infertility affects 10-15% of couples, of which half of the cases concern both parties, and surprisingly, secondary infertility often occurs, which is becoming more and more common among women after a successful pregnancy. Unfortunately, the highest percentage occurs in Central and Eastern Europe. Let's see how natural methods can help you before you decide to seek medical help.
Infertility also affects men
In men, the number of sperm, their motility and viability often decreases dramatically, which causes infertility. The reason for this state of affairs has not been precisely determined, but it seems likely that it is some kind of civilization effect, which may be caused by excessive exposure to various types of chemical substances (air, food, water) and oxidative stress. So, first of all, you should increase the amount of antioxidants you take.
The positive effect of Vitamin E and natural vitamin C supplements has long been described. The first one was used to treat infertility patients by administering 300 mg twice a day, which significantly improved the quality and motility of sperm; vitamin C at a dose of 1000 mg per day may increase sperm viability, especially in smokers. Coenzyme Q10 can be an effective help, as a dose of 60 mg per day has been shown to significantly increase sperm motility after just three months of treatment.
How can we help with female infertility?
The background of infertility in women is often hormonal problems. Today, Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is the most common disease causing infertility in women. Not only gynecological problems, but also includes metabolic diseases: this usually refers to diabetes. In the treatment of women diagnosed with insulin resistance syndrome, treatment is based mainly on improving glucose metabolism, so it should be done in consultation with a doctor to choose natural methods. Acai in several studies was able to reduce fasting and postprandial blood glucose levels. In addition to balanced blood sugar levels, Acai can support healthy weight loss, which is important because in many cases, overweight in women is an obstacle to successful conception.

Healthy food and ionized water
If possible, choose organic food without harmful contaminants and as little processed as possible and drink large amounts of at least 1.5 liters of clean, non-carbonated water or, preferably, ionized water.
Alkaline ionized waterwhich you can enjoy every day in your own home, thanks to the device AQUARION, has many unique health benefits. The name itself indicates that this water alkalizes, i.e. deacidifies, the body. In addition, it provides additional oxygen and has antioxidant properties, i.e. it works like the antioxidants described at the beginning of the article. And one more very important feature that distinguishes ionized water, namely its structure. Ionized water creates clusters of 6 water molecules, which means it has exactly the same arrangement of molecules as structured water found in our body. For comparison, ordinary water consists of as many as 12 to even 18 molecules. Thanks to its properties, alkaline water perfectly hydrates, oxygenates and at the same time cleanses the body. By improving the functioning of the entire body, it also increases the chance of getting pregnant.
