Many women trying to conceive don't realise they're starting each day with a habit that's disrupting their hormones. ⬇️
Skipping breakfast or choosing something like cereal or toast will cause a blood sugar can spike first thing in the morning - and that can set the tone for your glucose regulation for the rest of the day.
The resulting blood sugar swings interfere with your hormones by:
→ Increasing stress hormones
→ Fuelling inflammation
→ Increasing the risk or severity or Insulin Resistance or conditions like PCOS
❌ All of which are disrupting your hormone balance and egg quality.
But the good news is, just a few simple changes to your morning routine can fix this.
🥑 Here's the fertility breakfast formula I use with my clients, to support their hormones:
✅ Eat within 30-60 mins of waking
✅ Before coffee
✅ Include 20-25g of protein (most women only get 5-10g!)
✅ Add healthy fats to slow sugar absorption (i.e. avocado, nuts/seeds)
Save this post for my go-to fertility breakfast ideas - the same ones that have helped so many women feel more energised and regulated.
I’ve also added a guide to the protein content of common breakfast foods to make planning even easier.
