How to Use an Autoimmune Paleo Diet to Improve Your Fertility with Alexa Federico

“You don’t have to be perfect, even eliminating certain things dramatically reduces your inflammation, and your body is able to restore.”

Topics Discussed:

• The health benefits of an AIP diet.
• The impact of environmental and lifestyle factors on your diet and health.
• How to positively shape your mindset for better health.

Have you ever thought of giving the AIP diet a try to improve your fertility health? If you have an underlying autoimmune condition, it might be time you tried the Autoimmune Paleo Diet, which is perfect for improving your fertility and overall health.

“Finding what works for you and then doing it is more important than trying to fit a mold that you’ll end up giving up because it’s too difficult.”

In this episode of the Finding Fertility podcast, Monica speaks with Alexa Federico, a certified NTP (Nutritional Therapy Practitioner), AIP Coach, an author, and the owner of Alexa Federico Wellness. She was first diagnosed with Crohn’s disease at 12 years old, which led her to better eating habits that impacted her health. She now helps people learn how to utilize food in support of their health and not against it.

Listen in to learn how finding the right diet for you gives you control of your health even when you fall off the journey. You will also learn the importance of feeding your body and mind with positivity for them to work for you in the long term.

• “You are not what you eat, but you are what you eat consistently.”
• “Your body listens and hears everything that you say.”

Anything written or said about health and diet are my opinions, that I have formed over the years, through trial and error, study, reading, listening and observing. What worked for me may not work for you. I am not a doctor, nutritionist or dietician and all medical advice should be gotten from a qualified professional. Product recommendations are based on what I used during my infertility journey or wish I had.
