EF#40: Functional Fertility Solutions to Male Fertility with Sarah Clark

My guest today is Sarah Clark, a health and life coach from Fab Fertile in Canada. In this episode we talk about male fertility.

Sarah was 28 years old, when she received a diagnosis of premature ovarian failure. She accepted the diagnosis and had both her children through in vitro fertilization. Years later she realized the root cause of her infertility was a food intolerance.

She is a certified life coach with accreditation from the International Coaches Federation and a health coach with training from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition.

She is the author of Fabulously Fertile - Supercharge your Fertility Naturally, Fabulously Fertile Cookbook and Fertility Preparation Program. Her fertility coaching program, which includes functional lab testing, supports couples to make diet and lifestyle changes that dramatically improve the chances of a healthy pregnancy and baby!

On her Get Pregnant Naturally Podcast she shares that with functional medicine and natural fertility solutions we can eventually reverse infertility.

In this episode we talk about:

• Her own fertility journey with premature ovarian failure and how she was rushed into IVF and egg donation.
• The importance of reviewing male fertility when trying to conceive
• Key things that matter with male fertility
• How functional reference ranges can be used to look understand sperm and overall health
• How male fertility can be affected by environmental toxins
• Common health themes that affect male fertility
• Importance of lifestyle factors like sleep, work and exercise
• How men often deal or feel with infertility (male and female factor)
• Emotional support tips for both men and women
• Nutrition and lifestyle improvements such as environmental exposure
• The need to find your "love language" and personal needs
• Recommended supplements and testing for sperm and overall health
• How the Fab Fertile practitioners use functional medicine to help couples get pregnant
