0:00.0	Welcome to the Optimal Protein Podcast. I'm Vanessa Spina.
0:04.6	Hello, my friends. Welcome back to the podcast. I'm your host, Vanessa, and I am so excited for today's episode.
0:12.2	We have Lily Nichols joining us on the podcast again. I think this is her third time being on.
0:19.0	And she just came out with a brand new, incredible book called Real Food for Fertility.
0:26.2	Prepare your body for pregnancy with preconception nutrition and fertility awareness.
0:31.5	And this interview, we get to talk about so many of my favorite concepts, including and not limited to prenatal and fertility
0:39.9	nutrition, but just how to optimize your body in general. And Lily is so incredible at doing
0:47.4	the research and sourcing everything in her books. She's even influenced policy internationally on recommendations for people to do
0:57.0	low carb in order to prevent or deal with gestational diabetes. And I just always learn so much from
1:04.0	her from our conversations. We talk a lot about an optimal protein intake and why that is so important
1:09.9	in general, especially if we are dealing

1:18.0	nutrition that you get from protein just to combat the inflammation that your body is dealing
1:23.1	with. And similarly, if you are optimizing your protein intake, you are likely optimizing a lot of other things, including your nutrient intake and status because protein is so nutrient dense, especially animal-based protein, which is mostly what we're talking about.
1:39.9	She talks about how to switch out the unhealthy fats for the right kinds of fats and the ones that
1:46.2	are going to actually help lower inflammation instead of generate it like those toxic seed oils
1:52.1	that are present in our diet in so many different sources that it's hard to sort of pinpoint them
1:58.4	all these days because they seem to make their way into everything.
2:01.6	Even baby food, which is kind of appalling.
2:04.9	But today's episode is really for everyone, whether you are someone who is interested in fertility, conception, prenatal nutrition,
2:12.5	or you're just someone who wants to optimize their overall health.
2:15.4	The concepts that apply to having optimal fertility
