Gut Health, Meal Prep, and Fertility with Julie Nguyen of Methodology
The Egg Whisperer Show
I encourage all of my patients to find what I refer to as a “cabana boy.” I like the idea of someone fanning them with a big palm leaf, and taking care of their every need while they relax and take it easy during fertility treatment.
