PRESENTATION
RESTORING REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH - LESSONS FROM TRADITIONAL SOCIETIES AND CONTEMPORARY SCIENCE. A PANEL DISCUSSION INVITING YOUR QUESTIONS.
FRI., OCT. 15 AT 4:00 PM
An ever-increasing number of couples are experiencing fertility challenges. There are a lot of theories as to why this is happening, from advanced parental age to endocrine disrupting chemicals in the environment. While some cases of infertility can be "explained" by conventional medicine, a significant number remain "unexplained." And even "explained" cases are not always fully explained by a medical diagnosis. For example, PCOS (now PMOS) is often over-diagnosed and along with endometriosis, both have multiple contributing factors including poor gut health and nutrient deficiencies.
The "primitive" people Weston A. Price visited had special foods for couples planning pregnancy. Science is now validating a great number of these dietary practices, and couples who embrace the Wise Traditions diet and lifestyle are giving birth to healthy children. Pam Schoenfeld, Dr. Naomi Whittaker and Sally Fallon Morell will share their extensive knowledge and experience on diet and childbearing and answer audience questions. If you or someone you know has experienced any challenge in getting pregnant or was able to reverse "infertility", this is your opportunity to share your story or ask questions. (Speakers will not be giving personalized medical advice or advising on fertility treatments, but will share what has worked for other couples.)​
