In this episode of Lose the Weight, Keep the Curves, your host Eva Rodriguez shares her personal experience of having a stressful pregnancy journey and shares everything she wishes someone would have told her when she was pregnant with her son.              Eva discusses the importance of stress management during pregnancy and how it can impact both the mother and the baby. Eva also provides valuable insights into nutrition and exercise during pregnancy, emphasizing the need for a balanced diet and staying physically active. She highlights the significance of intuitive eating and mindset work to maintain a positive body image during pregnancy. Eva's advice is grounded in her own journey and the tips and lessons she wishes she had known during her own pregnancy that she's now sharing with her pregnant clients.             KEY POINTS       How does stress affect pregnancy?       What is considered a balanced diet for optimal prenatal health?       Which nutrients are essential during pregnancy to support the baby's development and prevent deficiencies?         How can staying physically active during pregnancy lower the risk of complications and improve postpartum recovery?           Why is cultivating a positive body image and practicing self-compassion important for mental well-being during pregnancy?           QUOTABLES “Using words like soft, blubbery, jiggly, or even fat to describe your pregnant body is not only harmful to you and your feelings, but it's also harmful to your nervous system and harmful to the baby growing inside of you." - Eva Rodriguez   "Your body will never be the same again. Your old clothes won't fit the same again after you give birth. It will take some time for you to get used to this new body and you'll be dealing with all the mental drama while caring for a newborn." - Eva Rodriguez

This week, we had the privilege of welcoming Dr. James Thorp, an obstetrician-gynecologist, a maternal-fetal medicine specialist, and also the Chief of Maternal and Prenatal Health at The Wellness Company.  Dr. Thorp will dive into the science of vaccine side effects, particularly in terms of women's health, and fertility in both women and men. You won't want to miss out on this eye-opening episode that details the attack on fertility, and the implications for future generations.    Quotes: "It's irrefutable that the vaccine is killing fertility, especially in women and men." – Dr James Thorp "The medical journals have been gamed and are controlled by a massive amount of pharmaceutical dollars." – Dr James Thorp "We're seeing rises in miscarriages, adverse outcomes that used to be very rare, especially in healthy families." – Dr James Thorp "Published studies are often an abomination of science, like claiming COVID vaccines curb preterm births, which is false." – Dr James Thorp   Key Takeaways: Always question information and narratives presented to you. Don't blindly accept information, especially when it comes to healthcare decisions. Do your own research and seek diverse perspectives. In matters of health, be an active advocate for yourself or your loved ones. Understand the implications of medical decisions and make informed choices based on your unique circumstances. Understand the impact of inflammation on health, particularly in pregnancy. Be cautious about substances or situations that may induce inflammation and prioritize practices that promote a healthy, low-inflammatory environment. Be aware of historical instances where medical interventions had adverse effects on specific populations. Learn from past mistakes to navigate present and future healthcare decisions. Take proactive steps to prioritize your immune health. Consider supplements like vitamin C, vitamin D, zinc, and iodine to support your immune system against various assaults. Extend your health practices to protect your family. Consider natural supplements and wellness products that are potentially beneficial in mitigating adverse effects. When selecting healthcare providers, consider their ethical stance and commitment to patient well-being. Look for professionals who prioritize transparency, honesty, and evidence-based practices.   Highlights/Timeline: [06:41] – What is Dr. James' perspective on vaccine safety and informed consent? [10:25] – Dr. James shares his thoughts on vaccine safety concerns and the suppression of information [29:27] – What is the impact of COVID-19 vaccines on fertility? [40:28] – What are the alternative methods for the protection of the immune system? [47:38] – Dr. James talks about the corruption within the medical industry [53:13] – How does Dr. James perceive pharmaceutical industry liability and integrity?   Conclusion: When it comes to vaccine safety, make sure you're well-informed to make wise healthcare decisions. It is important to have discussions with your trusted healthcare professionals to understand the pros, cons, and ethical considerations of vaccination. Empower yourself with informed consent, and align decisions with your values. Stay updated on research to actively engage in discussions about vaccine safety. Taking a proactive and informed stance not only benefits you but also contributes to building a healthier and more resilient community.   Resources: Learn more about Dr James Thorp on: Website: https://www.twc.health/pages/dr-jim-thorp    Learn more about Dr. Stanton Hom on: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stanhomdc Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drstantonhom Twitter: https://twitter.com/drstantonhom Website: https://futuregenerationssd.com/  Podcast Website: https://thefuturegen.com Stay Connected with the Future Generations Podcast: Instagram: @futuregenpodcast, @thefuturegensd and @drstantonhom_ Facebook: Future Generations Podcast and Future Generations | Clinic of Chiropractic Website: Future Generations | Clinic of Chiropractic If you would like to learn more about the truth behind the pandemic, please check out The End of C0V1D.  Click the link to sign up: https://theendofcovid.com/ref/352/    Get the Heart of Freedom III Replay here: https://hof3replay.thefuturegen.com/hof3recording Join the Future Generations Community here: https://community.thefuturegen.com   Remember to Rate, Review and Subscribe on iTunes and Follow us on Spotify Follow us on Instagram: @futuregenpodcast   San Diego area residents, take advantage of our special New Patient offer exclusively for podcast listeners here.

In this episode, we welcome Amanda Dotz, a registered dietitian nutritionist specializing in prenatal nutrition. Amanda shares her journey into this field and why she is passionate about it. She explains the difference between a dietitian and a nutritionist, highlighting the extensive schooling and accreditation required for dietitians. Amanda's goal is to educate and support moms in her community, and she discusses the various aspects of her work, including food service, clinical, and community work. Tune in to gain a deeper understanding of prenatal nutrition and the important role of a registered dietitian in this field.Timestamp key takeaways:(10:31) Prenatal nutrition is important for both the mother and the baby's health during pregnancy. It is essential to focus on nutrient-dense foods and prioritize protein intake.(18:46) During the second trimester, it is crucial to eat enough food and focus on nutrient-dense options. Including foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids, such as fatty fish and eggs, can support the baby's brain development.(21:49) Blood sugar balance is key during the third trimester. Pairing carbohydrate-rich foods with proteins and fats can help stabilize blood sugar levels. It is also important to continue consuming foods rich in omega-3s and prioritize fluid intake.(29:44) In the weeks leading up to labor and delivery, it is recommended to have snacks and fluids readily available. Protein-rich snacks like frozen grapes and string cheese can provide nourishment during labor. Electrolyte drinks can help replenish fluids.(36:03) Postpartum healing and breastfeeding require increased nutrient and fluid intake. Adequate protein, B12, choline, and omega-3s are essential during this period. Planning freezer meals, having snacks on hand, and staying hydrated are important for postpartum recovery and milk production.

Are you powering your muscles with the right fuel? Registered dietitian Melanie joins us in this enlightening episode to reveal the recommended protein intake for optimum muscle growth and maintenance, especially for vegans and vegetarians.

Our experts dissect a comprehensive report that covers 10 years of data. We explore disparities in care and what we know about what influences health outcomes.

Many physicians have been advocating publicly for reproductive health for decades, but many more have remained silent on the subject of abortion, fearing retribution from the general public and their communities.

CHDS is home to a groundbreaking study, which originated in 1959, designed to shed light on the various factors impacting health during pregnancy and early childhood. Between 1959 and 1967, 15,000 pregnant women and their families were enrolled. Researchers continue to study these rich data and conduct important follow-up studies to further examine how events during pregnancy impact the subsequent health of fathers, mothers, and their children and grandchildren. Dr. Cohn consults with researchers around the world on the use of the CHDS data for health research.In addition, Dr. Cohn directs research examining how pregnancy protects against breast cancer and influences other health problems in mothers and their children in order to identify natural protective mechanisms that can be used for prevention. She also investigates whether early life exposure to environmental chemicals during pregnancy affects obesity, immune function, reproductive health, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, neurodevelopment, cancer, and health disparities in mothers and their children across the life span.Dr. Cohn holds a doctorate in epidemiology, a master's degree in city and regional planning, a master's degree in public health planning, and a bachelor's degree in zoology, all from the University of California, Berkeley.

Herbalist Arielle De Martinez is on this episode sharing about whole plant medicine.  After Arielle's first daughter was born, she quickly learned that she was the only authority who had her family's best interests at heart. She relied on herbal medicine often in those early stages of motherhood, whether it was to support her own nervous system or her daughter's well-being. Over time, the herbal medicines that she crafted with love turned into a full-blown apothecary, now known as SubLuna Botanicals. We dive into whole plant medicine verses essential oils busting myths and learning why whole plants may be the way to go!

Welcome to the 95th episode of Food, Freedom and Fertility! This week we have the founder of FullWell Fertility, Ayla Baummer, MS, RD, LDN.  Ayla founded FullWell as an adjunct to her clinical practice at Boston Functional Nutrition because she wanted to make the evidence-based, effective, and high-quality supplement they created for their clients available to the rest of the world. Sophia and Caitlin have been fans of Ayla's and FullWell long before the FFF podcast was born. Ayla has joined numerous times on the podcast but this time the focus is on Omega-3 and Fish Oil and the  Importance in Pre-Conception and Pregnancy.  In addition to all of the amazing information you will learn in this podcast AND the discount of 10% you will receive using the code : FFF10… Ayla is giving a full set of her products to one lucky winner. To take part in the contest you need to follow FullWell on Instagram (@fullwellfertility), go to fullwell.com join their email list. One lucky listener will win: prenatal multi, men's prenatal, nourish nerves, fish oil. Be sure to enter. During this episode we discuss a few of the products on FullWell's website such as their tincture and why it was created but the big focus today is on Fish Oil.  Fish Oil is wonderful because fish are packed with a variety of benefits, they are very nutrient dense. Unfortunately, seafood consumption has been declining over the years, due to supply and contamination. In a perfect world it is ideal to consume whole foods first but it can be difficult due to the above-mentioned challenges.   FullWell's fish oil is sourced from small fish such as anchovies and sardines. These fish are raised in a sustainable fishery off of the coast of Peru. Ayla shares more important and transparent details about the manufacturing, the testing and the overall full process. All of the test results are shared so that consumers can feel good about the quality of fish oil they are taking as fish oil is a very fragile oil. The shelf life of FullWell's fish oil is 2 years and meant to be stored at room temp. Sophia, Caitlin and Ayla discuss what amount of fish oil should someone be taking, which they suggested 400mg if you are severely deficient while TTC. Again, getting your fish oil from whole food is always best, but a high-quality fish oil is a wonderful alternative. If you eat fish but you are intimidated by cooking fish, Caitlin suggested using non – bleached parchment paper packets, add olive oil, lemon and steam… this takes away the fishy flavor. Ayla and our hosts discuss ethical concerns about fish. Ayla shares that if you do not consume any fish, taking a Vegan algae-based omega 3 supplement would be better than taking nothing at all. The stakes are very high if you can't meet the Omega 3 levels. This could affect your body's healthy blood flow or the ability to combat inflammation. They also mention that taking the correct level of Omega 3's improves the ability for implantation and it is critical for fertilization. Another vegan alternative to fish oil instead of algae would be Oysters, since they have no central nervous system. Ayla shares with listeners her thoughts on dosage changes throughout your pregnancy and why, how to take a fish oil, the best time of day to take it and should it be taken with food.  She also emphasizes the importance of the male partner's need for fish oil too. Ayla has done a wonderful job of creating a fish oil product that is not only thoughtfully sourced, fully tested and transparent, but she manages to keep the price lower than equal competitors because it is only sold on the FullWell's website. In addition to creating a product to help the vitality of your pregnancy… FullWell is also helping to clean up the ocean by removing 1lb of plastic and trash from the ocean for every product purchased. One final message from Ayla is that she looks to empower people with education so they can make the best decision for their family and lifestyle. Always advocate for yourself.   If you loved this episode please check out the other episodes that Ayla has joined us for.   For more information and discount codes to our sponsors please follow the links to 3 of our most favorite brands that we have raved about throughout our podcast.     Special links and codes from this episode Proov Testing Kit and online app 25% OFF in $25 or more FFF25    FullWell: FFF10 10% pre-natal, fish oil or men's pre-natal Pre-Natal Nutrition Library: FFF20 20% a monthly or annual membership

We spend the majority of our lives actively avoiding pregnancy, so when the time finally arrives that you actually want to make a baby, it's important to plan ahead. If you're someone who finds herself saying “I'll get healthy when I'm pregnant”, this episode is for you because you really do need to start making healthy lifestyle changes before you get pregnant – 3 months to be exact. Why 3 months? It takes 90 days for an egg to mature inside the follicles in the ovary before it is released at ovulation. For the boys, it takes 3 months for sperm cells to fully mature. By making lifestyle changes in the 3 months before actively trying to conceive, you're making sure that your man has a stock of healthy, high quality mature sperm and that you're creating the healthiest possible environment that encourages a fertilised egg to implant and develop into your baby. Here's What We're Talking About:Why you need to plan aheadWhat to talk about with your doctorHow to eliminate your exposure to potential nastiesEssential nutrients for pre-conception to include in your diet before pregnancy (and one in particular that will give him high quality, fast-swimming sperm)Why creating a regular exercise habit now will serve you and your baby through your pregnancy and beyond  ________________ Read the show notes, including a transcript of this episode with all links and resources HEREDM Rachel on Instagram: @fertilityco________________  Want to say goodbye to hormonal contraceptives and their weird and unpleasant side effects?Want to improve your chances of conceiving quickly and naturally?As a listener of the podcast, I'm giving you exclusive access to my Free Fertility Masterclass, where I'll teach you exactly how to chart your menstrual cycle and identify your body's natural fertile signs so that you can achieve or avoid pregnancy naturally and without the stress!Just getting started?You need my Fertility Roadmap – My simple 3-step system to understanding your body's natural fertile signs and pinpointing ovulation day so that you can use this knowledge to achieve (or avoid) pregnancy. Does your pelvic floor need a little extra TLC?

There is no shortage of information on what we should and shouldn't be eating. And when you're pregnant, this can get really confusing and overwhelming. What I wished someone spoke to me about sooner, were the changes I could make preconception and in early pregnancy.I met fertility and women's hormone expert, Dr. Rachel Corradetti-Sargeant, when she signed up for my Healthy Home Method program. So when I launched my course, Prepping for Pregnancy, I knew I wanted to share her wisdom with my students. This episode is a recording of a conversation Dr. Rachel and I had in the middle of 2019, specifically to support those who are preconception, trying to conceive, or in early pregnancy.We cover:What's going on in the body preconception and how can we support this phaseWhat kinds of changes to diets and lifestyles couples should consider when trying to conceive or are pregnantNutrition advice she wishes more TTC couples followedSupplements recommended during pregnancy to support optimal health for the pregnant person and the babyDr. Rachel Corradetti-Sargeant is a licenced Naturopathic Doctor - part total science nerd and part no-holds-barred health nut. With special interests in fertility and women's hormones, she is passionate about empowering her patients to make healthy changes and allow them to achieve conception, maintenance of a healthy pregnancy, and transitioning out of their fertility years later in life…When she is not seeing patients, Rachel is running triathlons, contributing to magazine articles (look for me in Clean Eating and Elle magazines), reviewing the latest clinic research for Integrated Healthcare Practitioners magazine, or making a giant mess in the kitchen whipping up the latest healthy desserts.Dr. Corradetti-Sargeant has two children who were conceived with the help of preconception care via naturopathic doctors and fertility care, so she is extra passionate about hormonal health!Website: www.rachelcorradetti.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/drrachelcorradettindTwitter: https://twitter.com/Dr_Rachel_NDInstagram: http://instagram.com/Dr_Rachel_NDLinks Mentioned:Prepping for Pregnancy 6-Week Online Course: https://greenathome.info/preppingforpregnancy*****Green Product Forum: https://facebook.com/groups/greenproductforumInstagram: https://instagram.com/emma_greenathomeWebsite: https://greenathome.ca

When I did my deep-dive into detoxing my own home after my children were born, I became paralyzed by fear, overwhelm and analysis paralysis. Even though I had been working to reduce toxins for 15 years, I totally lost control. And a large reason behind it was the access to more information that wasn't available when I first got started.I realised that my confusion and analysis paralysis were perpetuated because of myths. But they seeded enough doubt in me, that I became stuck and frustrated.When it comes to the ingredients in the products you use every day, there is no shortage of information out there, seeking to discredit the notion that environmental toxins are a serious concern.In this episode, I want to help you overcome doubt. I'm going to address some of the most common myths that lead to doubt and ultimately sabotage your success.Links Mentioned in the Episode:Register for the free webclass, What You Need to Know About Hormone Disruptors & Pregnancy: https://greenathome.info/prenatalwebclass*****Green Product Forum: https://facebook.com/groups/greenproductforumInstagram: https://instagram.com/emma_greenathomeWebsite: https://greenathome.ca

Lecture delivered by Juho Härkönen, Assistant Professor at the Swedish Institute for Social Research (SOFI), Stockholm University. Childhood conditions can have a lasting impact on the life-course. Recent years have witnessed a renewed and increasing interest in childhood health as a predictor of socioeconomic and health outcomes later in life. In this study, we analyze the effects of fetal health conditions on educational attainment at age 31 and the role fetal health plays in the intergenerational transmission of educational inequality. Our central contribution to the literature comes from the use of clinically defined health conditions, which feature prevalently in the medical literature and are known correlates of birth and other short-term outcomes. Using ordinal logit models and data from the Northern Finland Birth Cohort 1966 Study, we find that mother's smoking during pregnancy has the most robust negative effect on educational attainment. Furthermore, our results suggest a dose-response relationship, and weaker effects if the mother quit smoking during the first trimester. We also find that mother's anemia during pregnancy is associated with lower levels of attained education. Other health indicators - and most notably, preterm birth and small size for gestational age - do not predict later education. These health factors explain little of the persistent class background inequalities in educational attainment, but account for 12 to 19 percent of the difference between children born to unmarried versus married mothers. Our results point to the usefulness of clinical childhood health measures instead of or in addition to more general ones. We also conclude that widening class disparities in mothers' prenatal smoking may increase its importance as a pathway through which socioeconomic (dis)advantage is transmitted across generations.
