Infertility is often related to gluten intolerance, esp. celiac. Both are often related to thyroid issues too. The basic problem is though to be gluten-induced leaky gut (zonulin) which triggers autoimmune problems. See:
or Google "gluten infertility" ... it's a big issue right now. Something to experiment with, anyway.
Does Fast-5 help with that? I believe it does: having less food in the gut most of the time allows it to do housecleaning, and one of the reasons I do it is that it appears to have cleared up the lingering issues I had that did not resolve on a gluten-free diet. But also, for people not on a gluten-free diet, it lessens the load of gluten, since it's the main component in most foods in the US, esp. snack foods.
Fast-5 also makes it a LOT easier to experiment with foods that might be bothering you. It's just more obvious when you are only eating one meal a day, if a certain food doesn't make you feel great. Although since I've been doing it for a awhile, I've found that I digest foods a whole lot better than I used to.

Hello everyone,
I was wondering if anyone knows if doing IF like fast 5 will help fertility or decrease fertility, as I have read conflicting reports on this. My main problem is possible low thyroid and high FSH-I am looking for a dietary program that can help with both but not one that will make it worse. I have tried fast 5 a couple times and other IF programs but I tend to overeat and give up-I need some inspiration that it would be worth it to me.
Thnks in advance
