Enhancing Implantation

Before we wrap up, let’s finish on the last ingredient of our ideal recipe for conception: helping to support the uterine lining and the uterus as an environment for implantation.

Implantation is an often invisible and little known process but a pretty important event because after this, you’re officially pregnant and will start to see pregnancy tests coming up positive just days later!

It is important to note that research about nutrition for implantation is in its early stages, however, there are a few simple nutrition strategies to help support the uterine lining thickness and environment at least 4-6 weeks prior to conception.

Nutrition tips for supporting implantation

Here are some simple nutritious additions to your diet to help support uterine lining and the uterine environment for implantation.

Vitamin E

Adding foods rich in vitamin E like avocado, extra virgin olive oil, natural peanut butter & almonds may help to support the uterine lining thickness.

Beetroot

Try incorporating beetroot into your diet! Beetroot is rich in dietary nitrates which may help support more blood flow, according to a small study in an IVF population.
