What to eat to maintain uterine and ovarian health
Disease description:
A friend wants a second child; what should she eat to support uterine and ovarian health?
To maintain uterine and ovarian health, you can consume foods rich in vitamin E, vitamin C, folic acid, and high-calcium nutrients. Vitamin E helps prevent premature ovarian failure, alleviates menopausal symptoms, and enhances fertility. Vitamin C is widely recognized as an effective cancer-preventive nutrient; both vitamin C and folic acid may help reduce the risk of ovarian and cervical cancers. Regular intake of adequate high-calcium foods also contributes to good maintenance of the ovaries and uterus.
