On this episode Ashley and Danielle speak with Ayla Barmmer, MS, RDN, LDN who is a fertility nutrition expert and founder, formulator, and CEO of FullWell.
Ayla has dedicated over 20 years to advancing reproductive health through nutritional science and functional medicine. She champions reproductive wellness by delivering uncompromising products supported by the latest clinical evidence and education that helps women and their partners make choices that proactively care for their reproductive health, nourishing themselves and future generations. Ayla owns and operates Boston Functional Nutrition, an integrative and functional nutrition multi-clinician practice, that specializes in women's health and infertility. Ayla also co-founded the Women's Health Nutrition Academy in 2018, a leader in its field.
In this conversation, Ayla discusses the importance of preconception nutrition for both women and men and the care she has put into creating her supplement line FullWell.
We discuss:
- the need for quality control in supplements, the challenges in the industry and the role of healthcare practitioners in formulation.
- men's health significantly impacts fertility and pregnancy outcomes and should not be overlooked.
- the key nutrients that are often overlooked in discussions about fertility
- the critical role of various nutrients, particularly choline and folate in pregnancy and fertility.
- environmental factors and stressors can impact fertility and health.
- the good news is that nutritional strategies can lesson age-related fertility decline.

We love helping provide quality content on IBD nutrition and making it more accessible to all through our podcast, instagram and youtube channel. Creating the resources we provide comes at a significant cost to us. We dream of a day where we can provide even more free education, guidance and support to those with IBD like us.
We need your support to do this. You can help us by liking episodes, sharing them on your social media, subscribing to you tube and telling others about us (your doctors, friends, family, forums/reddit etc). Can you do this for us? In return, I promise to continually level up what we do here.
