The importance of a sufficient supply with certain vitamins and minerals has long been acknowledged. Every gynecologist recommends taking folic acid, particularly because of its protective role in the early embryo’s neurological development. More and more it becomes evident that other vitamins and minerals, too, can have a major impact on fertility. Scientific studies have shown that iron as well as B-vitamins are particularly important for healthy conception.

Antioxidants on the other hand are vital to protect from the detrimental effects of oxidative stress.

 

 

The term oxidative stress refers to the impairment of body cells by reactive oxygen species (ROS). Normally the ROS produced in the body are defanged by the body’s protective antioxidant system. However, if there are too many ROS or too few antioxidants, this delicate balance can collapse and body cells are damaged. Oocytes are particularly susceptible to attacks by reactive oxygen species. Oxidative stress can impair the cell membrane and interfere with protein synthesis as well as energy production.

This compromises oocyte quality and is detrimental to embryonic development. Experts have associated problems throughout later pregnancy with oxidative stress, too. Additionally oxidative stress is thought to be involved in age-related fertility decline.
