What
is included: Who: Kelly
Genzlinger, CNC, CMTA, Holistic Nutritionist and Food Therapist, and mom of 3, designed this program. It is based
on her years of study in the area of traditional diets and whole foods, as well as her experience helping people improve their
well-being, health, and quality of life by transitioning to a traditional diet. Her role as mom to 3 wonderful
children has also been important in developing this program! x
Why: Why
a traditional foods and natural lifestyle program? 1) When animals are put in captivity and fed the wrong diet, they cannot reproduce.
When their natural foods are supplied, they can conceive and have healthy babies! This program is
all about ensuring you are on a natural diet for humans. It is probably all you need, and it is probably
something you have never tried. Traditional, natural foods for humans have nothing to do with
the Food Pyramid, nor with food industry claims. x
2) Furthermore, certain studies show that diets
in whole-fat dairy improve fertilty ... why? Another study shows women who are extreme athletes are missing the hormone
leptin - when supplemented with this they can conceive ... why? This program has the answers! x 3) While the basis is food choice and
dietary change – the program includes the alternative and complementary modalities of: acupuncture, healing touch, massage,
and hypnotherapy. These therapies are known to improve fertility; when used regularly and in conjunction with each other
and the traditional foods program - they make a dynamic and powerful addition to the program! Additionally, they counteract
the stress involved with infertility - which works against conception.

– you probably won’t have to go much further! This program is an ideal starting place - it is all natural
and more affordable than conventional treatments that are invasive, expensive, and use various synthetic drugs and hormones. x In Progress? – this traditional foods program will only help your
other investments and chances, and will educate you in ways that are important for all stages of having a baby - fertility,
pregnancy, and nursing! x Nothing has worked? – you probably have not tried a traditional foods
program - give this a try ... x Wherever you are along the path of trying
to conceive to adoption, you can benefit from this program. You only have improved health to gain, and, well ... more
family members :) x Procreation is
very natural, and we need to return to what is a natural diet for the human animal to be sure we have all we need to conceive
and grow a healthy baby.
Frequently Asked Questions
about the Food For Fertility program x
How does the Food for Fertility program work? You begin with a couples initial
consultation for both parents-to-be. This one hour session can be scheduled at your convenience. Once
you've begun, you attend class two days per month, and have individual consultations twice per month (for
30 minutes); additionally, you'll schedule two alternative therapies per month. These
alternative, holistic modalities are a key component of the program. All in all, you are involved directly in program
activities once or twice per week. Outside of the program, there will be additional time spent on changing food
sources, and preparation.
What if my schedule doesn't allow me to take the class series? Individual fertility counseling is a great alternative.
It can provide you with basics and help transitioning to a new way of eating, choosing food, and preparing it, and can help
you learn about and decide on alternative modalities. Initial consultation is just $85. Call 248-822-9253 to schedule

What is Your Baby Made Of?
Few of us want our baby to be made of chemicals, preservatives, dyes, stabilizers,
emulsifiers, synthetic nutrition, trans fats, MSG, high fructose corn syrup, and various sugars and refined grains.
Yet, often this is exactly what our diet consists of - even if we are eating "health" foods - so
... that is what our babies will be made of ... (and if this is all we have, our body might not even allow conception, knowing
there aren't enough building blocks and materials to grow a healthy baby)! x For example, the body usually utilizes saturated fats
to help form cell walls (we have 70-100 trillion cells), but if trans fats are ingested, then they are used in place
of natural saturated fats. This is what happens when choosing margarine over butter, for example. x Babies should be made of whole, natural, real, traditional foods - because they are made of, with, and
from nutrients. x Cells make up our bodies, but overall we are made of and run on nutrients - vitamins and minerals
are also called coenzymes because they are essential to all enzymatic processes in the body - which amounts to everything
your body does every day! Ponder the following information: - Bones
are made of minerals (like calcium and magnesium), activated by fat-soluble vitamins
- Cartilage
and collagen are made up of, in part, glucosamine and chondroitin
- Muscles are
made of vitamins and proteins - heart has highest storage of CoQ10, for example
- Antibodies,
enzymes, and hormones are made of proteins
- Tissue is made of protein
and vitamins - vitamin A, for example, determines the integrity of our mucosal linings (lungs and intestines)
Nutrients make normal growth and development possible. A prime example
of this is the need for folic acid, which prevents neural tube defects. This single B-vitamin makes a difference in
the formation of the spine of our growing baby - without which, spina bifida is more likely to occur. We may not yet
scientifically understand how each nutrient works in formation of our babies, but it is obvious nutrients play a crucial role
as missing just one vitamin can be so problematic. Indeed
Vitamin D deficiency is low linked to Multiple Sclerosis, Type I Diabetes, and Cancer. There are many examples of nutrient
deficiency diseases. All of this information should make it self-evident that nutrients, and nutritional status of mom,
and even dad, are integral for healthy conception and healthy babies and health overall. Conceiving and growing a baby depend on appropriate nutrition
- otherwise, the body has to make compromises and is not optimally formed - leading to infertility, miscarriage,
birth defects, disease and health problems. Nutrient
defiencies are passed on from mother to baby. That is because the mother cannot provide what she does not have,
so the baby will be low, or deficient, in the same nutrients that mom is. It is critical to supply nutrient-rich foods,
exclusively, during pregnancy and nursing. If you are having trouble nursing,
producing enough milk, etc. - traditional foods can make a huge difference! When it is time for baby to eat foods other than breastmilk, the choices and preparation of that food
should be made by an educated mom. In addition to the Food for Fertility program,
Kelly Genzlinger, CNC, CMTA also provides individual consultations and classes on feeding your body during pregnancy and nursing,
as well as tips on first foods for baby.
