MIXED
TrustworthinessMixed

The reel suggests several supplements for fertility and detoxification, but the evidence for these claims is mixed. While some supplements like glutathione and NAD+ precursors have moderate evidence supporting their benefits, the claims about phosphatidylcholine and its impact on fertility are not directly supported by the provided evidence.

PRO
Detected Supplements (5)
Glutathione (Reduced)"glutathione" in reel
Moderate
Glutathione (Reduced)Supported

Most people really benefit doing some liposomal glutathione.

Liposomal glutathione has moderate evidence for improving oxidative stress markers and immune function.

CoQ10
IngredientNo evidence data — unverifiable

This ingredient is not in our library. We cannot assess claims about it.

B vitamins

NAD+ Precursors (NMN/NR)"NAD" in reel
Moderate
NAD+ Precursors (NMN/NR)Supported

Most people really benefit doing some NAD.

NAD+ precursors have moderate evidence for increasing NAD+ levels and improving metabolic function.

phosphatidylcholine
IngredientNo evidence data — unverifiable

This ingredient is not in our library. We cannot assess claims about it.

PhosphatidylcholineUnsupported

Phosphatidylcholine is good for both men and women's fertility.

The provided evidence does not include data supporting phosphatidylcholine's impact on fertility.

Transcript
Auto-generated from the reel audio.
First thing is to get the diet dialed in, taking out the highly processed foods and add in the most nutrient-dense foods that we can. So I really like a paleo or Mediterranean diet where people are already taking out the gluten and the dairy that can be so inflammatory. Depending on the person, see if they can take out the grains, but mostly put the really high-quality good things in and getting their weight at a good place, eliminating the toxins, doing a detox period where they are getting the toxins out. But then I think most people really benefit doing some liposomal glutathione and some liver support and some binders, CoQ10, B vitamins, NAD. You and I both have had such a dramatic assistance from phosphatidylcholine. It turns out there's a lot of really good data behind phosphatidylcholine being good for both men and women's fertility. If I could just beam out a supplement to everybody who wants to protect their fertility or enhance their fertility, everybody would get phosphatidylcholine. So that's basically like a fatty substance that's part of your cell membranes and helps both your regular cells and the mitochondrial membrane. It's basically providing the infrastructure, the building blocks, the bricks for your cells to work. So eliminating the exposures that we can figure out and then helping our bodies to detoxify that 3, 6, 12 months before and between pregnancies, I think is going to give people a much lower likelihood of passing on those epigenetic changes.

TTC? Start here. @annshippymd shares the foundational steps that can make a real difference: Clean up your diet first. Remove ultra-processed foods, added sugars, and refined starches. Focus on whole, nutrient-dense foods, think quality protein, healthy fats, and vegetables. Reduce inflammation triggers like excess sugar and, for some, gluten and dairy. Give your body time, sperm and egg quality can shift in as little as a few months. Small changes, done consistently, can have a meaningful impact. Drop a YES below, and I’ll DM you the link to this full episode.
