Answer 1

Prenatal vitamins
Omega fish oils
Vitex chasteberry

I would say foods that have estrogenic properties like yams, but it depends on what your fertility issue is.

Answer 2

a report on the news the other night said to eat ice cream daily. Higher fat the better.

A new study has shown that a diet which is high in dairy products such as ice cream can actually raise fertility levels among hopeful mothers.

This is according to a new study in a European medical journal. Experts though have warned that even though ice cream has shown to raise levels of fertility women should not run out and start eating gallons of it.

The study was based on work done by Harvard researchers who managed to discover a link between infertility and a low-fat diet.

In the study women who ate more than two low-fat dairy products every day were twice as likely to have trouble getting pregnant when compared to women who ate full-dairy products such as ice cream.

Women who ate ice cream two or more times per week had a 38 percent lower risk of infertility, a drastic increase compared to women who ate it less than once per week.

“The idea is not to go crazy and start to have ice cream three times a day,” said Dr. Jorge Chavarro, the lead author and a research fellow at Harvard.

“But it is certainly possible to have a healthy diet with low saturated fat intake by having one serving of high-fat dairy a day.”

It seems that if your trying to get pregnant spending a little time with Ben and Jerry may not be a bad thing.
