🔬 Pre-Bump Biology

Lowering endocrine-disrupting bisphenols and syncing meals to the morning circadian phase attack two silent fertility roadblocks at once: hormonal noise and insulin overload. Expect cleaner HPG-axis signaling, better androgen balance, and less oxidative stress—foundations for higher-quality eggs, stronger sperm, and more implantation-ready embryos.

🧬 Protocol Drop

Today’s Allopathic Protocol:
Do a 90-minute “Sunday audit.” Purge canned soups and acidic/oily canned items, stop heating food in plastic, and move ≥90% of food contact to borosilicate glass and 304/18-8 stainless steel (stock 8–12 glass containers + 2 steel bottles per adult). Decline thermal receipts and wash hands before food prep.

Today’s Holistic Protocol:
Front-load energy: ~50–55% of daily calories before 10:00 AM, 30–35% at lunch, ≤10–20% at an early dinner. Aim for ≥35–45 g protein and 10–15 g fiber at breakfast; finish eating by ~19:00 and hold the pattern for ≥90 days.

📚 Glossary Pop

SHBG (Sex Hormone–Binding Globulin): A liver-made protein that binds testosterone and estradiol. When SHBG rises, free (biologically active) androgens drop—helping normalize ovulation in PCOS and improving the hormonal environment for conception.

Snap a pic of your glass/steel lineup and your power breakfast—then send it to your partner. Stack the wins together.

P.S. Tomorrow Teaser

Morning protein meets night protection. Learn why starting your day with ≥25 g protein + slow carbs before 9 a.m. can reset your ovulatory rhythm—and how ending your day with your phone on airplane mode, away from your body shields sperm and eggs from EMF-linked oxidative stress.
