Psyllium husk is a form of soluble fibre that helps to feed the friendly bacteria in your gut, encouraging them to colonise and in turn, supporting regular bowel movements. Fibre is an essential dietary component that is important both pre and post pregnancy.
Studies have shown that fibre can help to maintain a healthy weight, reduce the risk of insulin resitance and feed the friendly bacteria in your gut microbiome. These three factors all play an important role in promoting better fertility, a healthier pregnancy and post-pregnancy recovery.
Maintaining a healthy weight can be beneficial for fertility as being overweight can impact reproductive health & may alter hormone levels in the body.
Insulin resistance can trigger the ovaries to overproduce androgen hormones. For women with PCOS this can cause irregular cycles or anovulation.
Good bacteria in the gut help to convert oestrogen into the active form, helping hormonal balance. The gut microbiome is also passed on to a baby after birth so having a healthy gut is vital for their healthy development!
