In assisted reproductive technology, ovulation induction is a crucial step, aiming to obtain more high-quality eggs to provide a good foundation for subsequent fertilization and embryo development. A reasonable diet plays a vital role during ovulation induction, providing necessary nutritional support for follicle development.
The relationship between nutrient intake and follicle development
The normal growth and maturation of follicles and oocytes depend on adequate intake of various nutrients, including proteins, vitamins, and minerals. Especially during the ovulation induction cycle, the simultaneous development of multiple follicles significantly increases the demand for nutrition. Planning a balanced diet to ensure adequate intake of key nutrients is an important step in supporting the quality development of follicles.
The role of high-quality protein
Protein is the basic substance for cell construction and repair, and is crucial for the growth and development of follicles. Adequate intake of high-quality protein helps maintain normal physiological functions and may, to some extent, reduce risks associated with the treatment.
Recommendations for intake: Fish, shrimp, poultry, lean meat, eggs, dairy products and bean products. It is recommended to consume a total of about 130-180 grams of meat, poultry, fish and eggs per day, and drink 300 grams of dairy products. Specific amounts need to be adjusted according to individual weight and health status.
The importance of lecithin
Lecithin, especially egg lecithin, is the core component of biological cell membranes and plays an important role in maintaining the structural integrity and function of oocyte membranes. Ensuring adequate dietary intake of lecithin is an important factor in supporting follicle development and maintaining egg quality.
Food sources: Egg yolks, soybeans and soy products (such as tofu, soy milk), as well as nuts such as walnuts and almonds, are all natural high-quality sources of lecithin.
Nutritional intervention for mitochondrial function
Consuming a scientifically balanced combination of nutrients can effectively support follicle development. For instance, the core ingredient Reco18 in Juvenex Reco18 is a patented component extracted through enzymatic processing from leguminous plants and cruciferous plants. It is combined with various nutrients such as folic acid, goji berry seeds, and zinc. Mitochondria are the energy factories of cells, and the same is true for the development of eggs in the ovaries. Scientifically verified, Juvenex Reco18 can directly act on the mitochondrial membrane structure of the ovary. By increasing the level of cardiolipin (CL), the mitochondrial structure is stabilized, enabling the mitochondria to function properly as the cellular energy factory, thereby promoting follicle development. The relevant research results have been published in the well-known SCI journal “Frontiers in Endocrinology”, which has an impact factor of 6.055.
During ovulation induction, the goal should not be excessive supplementation. Instead, follow scientific and reasonable dietary principles to create a healthy internal environment and lay a solid foundation for potential subsequent embryo transfer.We hope that every woman undergoing ovulation induction will prioritize dietary adjustments and welcome new life in the healthiest possible state.
