Healthy eating for fertility and preconception

This podcast series attempts to inform listeners of the nutrition, health and wellness benefits of olives and olive products, by drawing on the scientific knowledge of leading nutritionists, dieticians, scientists, doctors and academics from Australia and around the world. It complements the wealth of material collated by the Olive Wellness Institute – evidence-based credible information on nature's very own ancient source of health and wellness, the olive tree. Each fortnight you'll hear from experts on the reasons why regular consumption of extra virgin olive oil and products derived from the olive tree can improve our health.

Not only is it healthy, but fresh extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) can enhance the taste and aroma of many different kinds of dishes – from salads to cooked meat and vegetables, or as a substitute to butter on toast. Professor Russell Keast has researched oleocanthal – a natural compound found in EVOO – responsible for the burning sensation at the back of the throat when you swallow it. Oleocanthal has been found to have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties which can help alleviate heart disease and Alzheimer's disease. Russell gives his insights about the taste of extra virgin olive oil and how it fits into our diet.

If the number of male dietitians is any guide, men's health probably doesn't get the attention it deserves. Someone who wants to change that is Melbourne-based dietitian and nutritionist, Joel Feren, also known as The Nutrition Guy. He says men face different health issues to women. For instance, they're more susceptible to heart and lung disease, diabetes and suicide.  The issues can be complex, but from a dietary point of view, too much saturated fat, salt, and sugary drinks, and inadequate fibre, can increase a man's risk of heart disease and other illnesses.
