HIGHLIGHTS:

2:46 WELCOME KELLIE LUPSHA

3:26 KELLIE’S BACKGROUND & CAREER JOURNEY

• Our bodies are a true miracle if we can give them what they need.

4:47 INFLAMMATION & YOUR FERTILITY

• Inflammation is a natural process of the body that we all need
• Acute versus chronic inflammation
• Low-grade or chronic inflammation ultimately starts shutting down the natural processes of the body
• Certain foods, EMFs, toxins, and more can give us inflammation
• This is a really hard time for women where many of us are managing the responsibility of working full time while still managing your household and never slowing down to help the body get rid of that low-grade inflammation
• We need downtime to get inflammation under control.

10:21 INFLAMMATION & YOUR FOOD CHOICES

• When we’re thinking about an anti-inflammatory diet, it’s heavy on eating the rainbow
• A continuous glucose monitor can help a lot by empowering you with your data
• Metabolic health is one of the top indicators of overall health.
• Doing an elimination diet is the gold standard
• People have no idea how inflammatory gluten and dairy are.
• Digging into the diet piece is key
• It’s still faster to go to your stove instead of a drive-through.
• It’s not about never going out and enjoying food.
• If you're not enjoying yourself or having fun, that, in and of itself, is creating more undue stress.

19:54 THE BENEFITS OF EXERCISE

• You need to know your body.
• A balance of exercise is good, but a little bit too much exercise is going to lead to increased stress and inflammation.
• People respond quite differently to exercise.
• Movement is essential so do something you can do consistently

26:18 STRESS MANAGEMENT

• It's not about hiding from stress, but how we can better adapt and cope
• Take a true inventory on what are you doing in your life to manage your stress and have time for doing nothing
• Find time in your morning and later in the day for letting our mind be at peace
• Start your day with something positive.
• You don’t always need to be productive.
• Give yourself permission to say no.
• The limbo of indecision is one of the things that truly drives inflammation in your body

37:01 OPTIMIZING YOUR SLEEP

• Sleep is the cornerstone of health
• Having a wind-down routine is critical
• Invest in making your bed a comfortable and welcoming space

40:46 Nrf2 & THE ROLE OF GENETICS

• Our body has natural processes to help us get rid of inflammation.
• We can support our body’s natural pathways
• Protandim® Nrf2 Synergizer®

Ultimate Guide to Getting Pregnant This Year If You Have Low AMH/High FSH

---

I just put together a new guide “Reconnecting With Your Fertility: Preparing Your Body With Diet ” that I'm going to give you pro bono (aka, free 😂)

If you want it, reply here with "10 DAY".

It includes:

✅ Step by step 10 day plan to determine if you have a food sensitivity (a theme we see with low AMH and/or High FSH is food sensitivity)

✅ The final word on caffeine, alcohol and sugar and what you need to know as you prepare for pregnancy success

✅ What to expect when you begin to reintroduce the foods back into your diet (this is the most critical step and so many people get this part wrong)

✅ Why a generalized approach to diet wastes time and how to fast track pregnancy success with this proven 10 day plan

And a lot more.

Now, you may be asking...

WHY AM I DOING THIS?

#1) If you like it you'll prob buy my stuff later on

#2) I really like helping you and I enjoy getting all the "this free stuff is better than the last paid fertility course I took" messages in my inbox

If you want to claim the free guide, just email hello@fabfertile.ca and say "10 DAY".

You will be impressed.
