Detox for Conception: A Naturopathic Approach to Fertility & Preconception Care
Why It Matters: A wholistic approach to reproductive health and fertility acknowledges the role that epigenetics, nutrition, lifestyle, social and environmental factors play in conception and foetal health. From conception and into early development, these same factors are known to impact health into adulthood and even across the generations.
What to expect: In this presentation we will explore the Naturopathic approach to detoxification as an important (& potentially underutilised) tool for addressing sources of endocrine disruptors, oxidative stress and supporting mitochondrial function, which in turn impact reproductive outcomes.
