Looking for a light, healthy breakfast to add to your fertility food plan this springtime? Why not try making this nutritious and delicious rhubarb and ginger breakfast pot?

ינגבער - contains anti-inflammatory properties which increase blood circulation and promote healthy digestion. These properties help alleviate discomfort in the reproductive system, regulate menstrual cycles, and reduce inflammation of the reproductive organs- important in the management of endometriosis.

ראַבאַרבער is a great source of vitamin K (important for bone, blood and brain health), fibre, vitamin C, lutein, antioxidants and is low on calories. Studies show that rhubarb can help reduce ‘LDL’(bad) cholesterol levels in the blood. In relation to fertility, the vitamin C obtained from consuming cooked rhubarb is a powerful antioxidant which is important in supporting the immune system, protecting DNA in cells, including that of the egg and sperm from free radical damage- helping to prevent cell ageing. As vitamin C is involved in glucose metabolism- it helps with sugar balance (important for those with Poly Cystic Ovary Syndrome), may also help in the prevention of diabetes and is important for hormone balance too.
