"The principal mission of this book is to provide a simple and easy guidebook with proven tactics to help women tune into their body's natural "language" and increase their chances of conceiving.The book introduces readers to The Four Fertility Foes ("The Big Four") that may be compromising their efforts to get pregnant. These culprits--inflammation, insulin, stress, and toxicity--are more persistent in the lives of women today than any pre- existing medical condition. Identifying the issue is an empowering first step to taking action. It also provides the know-how to start a dialogue with their doctor when conventional approaches haven't been successful. What makes this book different: The tone of the book is edgy and conversational, making the information relatable, less intimidating, and easy to implement. The style of writing holds the reader's attention and conveys the years of clinical experience and real stories that went into the creation of the book. The content and recommendations are the accumulation of 2 decades of clinical experience of the author, as well as evidence derived from well regarded research in the areas of nutrition, acupuncture, herbal medicine, mindfulness and more"--, Provided by publisher
