My name is Randine Lewis, author of The Infertility Cure, the Ancient Chinese Wellness Program for Getting Pregnant and Having Healthy Babies. I have been treating sub-fertility for many years with natural medicine. It is my opinion that there is no such thing as “infertility”, and that sub-fertility is a result of sub-optimal health and wellness. The deeper wisdom that our bodies carry within knows that we shouldn’t be caring for another when our own needs aren’t being met. In fact, animals in the wild will not go into heat in a stressful environment. It is built into our very nature that we must care for our own wellbeing before we ought to care for another.
Even though we are the most advanced nation in the world, we also are the most removed from our natural environment. We consume synthetic, refined foods, carry horrific loads of stress and environmental toxins, and our cells are not getting the nutritional requirements our bodies can even recognize.
The most common reasons women consult me is because of issues like endometriosis, ovarian failure, poor quality eggs, advanced maternal age, and other causes of poor reproductive and cellular health. We are laden with degenerative diseases because our bodies haven’t caught up with our lifestyles. They can’t. We are products of nature, and our diets are far from natural. Most everybody I treat is extremely overworked and undernourished. And most nutritional supplements out there, even those that are recommended by highly respected healthcare providers, do not meet our cellular needs.
I have never promoted a nutritional supplement before. Christiane Northrup, M.D., one of my modern day heroines, has neither endorsed any nutritional supplement before now. The science behind USANA supplements convinced Dr. Northrup that this line of supplements meets the cellular needs of our modern world. This is nowhere more evident in the growing population of sub-fertile men and women that consult me. Because of Dr. Northrup’s confidence in USANA, I have personally researched USANA supplements, and began taking them myself.
I recommend the Health Pak 100 for all of my fertility patients, along with BiOmega-3.
Co-Quinone 30 is the perfect supplement for mitochondrial health (the powerhouse
of the cell), and Visionex is a powerful super-antioxidant regimen for women with signs of uterine blood stasis.
For those who can benefit from a detoxification plan, I recommend the RESET: 5 Day High Fiber Cleanse every three months during menstruation.
Most men with fertility issues can be helped with natural supplements. Seminal fluid, which supports developing sperm, has high levels of antioxidants to protect the sperm from oxidative damage - the main factor which damages developing germ cells during their 90 day process of development. Many environmental toxins, stress, heat, and lifestyle issues can impact the proper growth of sperm cells.
Usana supplements have been found to have the highest absorbable and utilizable form of proflavonols, antioxidants and superantioxidants available. They go directly to the cells, which take up the nutrients, and support healthy, unobstructed sperm production.
For men with male factor I recommend the Essentials. For morphology add BiOmega3 and Visionex and for motility add CoQuinone 30.
