Can fertility be increased through the use of supplements? - a heavily discussed topic with many contrasting opinions. Some foods, fruits, herbs, and seeds can help promote fertility for men and women. However, each body is different in the way fertility vitamins affect it.
Vitamins play a vital role in all body functions, including reproduction. The body slowly wears down when it lacks essential nutrients. In the absence of these vitamins and minerals, the hormonal glands, including the thyroid will fall out of rhythm, affecting every other process, such as reproduction.
In men, deficiencies can lead to less sperm count, sperm quality, and sexual desire. In women, vitamins are essential for adjusting the natural cycles and regulating menstruation and ovulation. The fertility vitamins are necessary for energy production and immune function, which create the foundation for sexual desire and abilities.
We recommend the want-to-be-parents take a second look at their diet and consider supplementing for at least three months before conceiving. Our supplements do not directly increase fertility or treat an infertility condition, but they improve overall health and prevent deficiencies.
A well-nourished body builds strong health foundations and is well-prepared for creating new life. We designed our supplements to cater to your specific needs based on your gender. Not only may our supplements increase your chances of conceiving, but they may also prepare the mother for the hardship of childbearing.

The day-to-night formula is designed to coordinate with your natural body clock. This way, your body will receive each nutrient right when it needs it and in the correct amount.
Some of the fertility vitamins for women in our female formula include:
- The B vitamins in Women Collection
- Vitamin E in the Daily Essential Women
- Vitamin D2 in the Daily Essential Women
The B vitamins
Since the B vitamins are the workhorses in charge of converting food to energy, they directly impact your metabolism, which regulates your cycles and sets the rhythm every process and function in your body runs by. If deficiencies impair the energy conversion process, the hormonal glands will naturally be affected too.
Vitamins B1, B2, B3, and B6 are all known to reduce the risk of ovulation disorder and ovulatory infertility. Studies showed that vitamin B12 especially increased fertility rates in women undergoing IVF and other fertility treatments. Also, its deficiency is linked with lowered fertility rates.
Another essential fertility vitamin is vitamin B9, also known as folate or folic acid. Several governments have required the fortification of certain food products with B9 due to its importance for embryo development. In a folate-deficient mother, the neural tube of the embryo will not develop, leading to various developmental conditions. Vitamin B9 is not only vital for pregnant mothers but also for the soon-to-be-pregnant, as it increases the chances of fertility.
Besides their benefits for metabolic regulation, the B vitamins are crucial for the nervous system transmissions, absorption of other nutrients, and the production of new cells.
We have all eight B vitamins in our Daily Essential Women and Nightly Reload Women supplements, as they are water-soluble. The more we get of them, the better, since the body cannot store them.
Vitamin E, the great fertility booster
Vitamin E supplements are widely known and used for their antioxidant and anti-aging properties, supporting cell protection and repair, which are fundamental in fertility.
This potent antioxidant facilitates healthy blood flow, increases cervical mucus, and prevents the thinning of the uterus lining. Research shows that vitamin E is vital for the reproductive system as its deficiency is linked to miscarriage, premature birth, preeclampsia, and intrauterine growth restriction. Vitamin E sufficiency is also necessary for egg quality and egg count.
Increased vitamin E consumption may aid decrease menstrual cramps. It is also commonly used to treat conditions such as breast cysts or hormonal imbalances.
It is not uncommon among health professionals to prescribe vitamin E supplementation for polycystic ovary syndrome to reduce symptoms and speed up the metabolic rate.
Those going through menopause, too, can benefit from the hormone-balancing properties of vitamin E. Vitamin E has been reported to decrease hot flashes, mood swings, and menstruation disorders in menopausal women.
Our Daily Essential Women supplements include vitamin E not only for their fertility boosting and hormone balancing qualities but because of their anti-aging and healing benefits, as well as their effects on cancers and conditions such as arthrosis and arthritis.
Vitamin D
Although our body creates vitamin D naturally when exposed to sunlight, over 1 billion people are vitamin D deficient globally. Vitamin D can also be sourced from animal food products, such as red and white meat, fish, and dairy. The pandemic of vitamin D deficiency is not limited to those living in colder climates with less sunlight and those following a plant-based diet.
The decreased time spent outdoors, and the globalized supermarket diet malnourishment, make almost anyone vulnerable to vitamin D deficiency.
Suboptimal values of the sun-vitamin lead to bone-related issues and dysregulated development of the hormones. Vitamin D plays a great role in determining sleep cycles and quality, which impacts other hormonal activities, such as sex drive.
Moreover, suboptimal vitamin D values in pregnancy have been linked to complications such as pre-eclampsia, diabetes, and preterm birth.
Deficient mothers tend to birth unhealthily smaller children, with a higher chance of affected bone growth and even rickets. Studies even link allergies with mothers' vitamin D deficiency.
The vitamin D in our Daily Essential Women will aid in boosting your mood, sleep quality, and hormonal regulation. This hard-to-absorb vitamin is teamed up with the B vitamins to maximize absorption. Also paired with calcium, together they maximize their impact on bone health.
Fertility vitamins for men
We designed the Sanbera system in two phases to make up for the malnourished body of the modern man. Our Daily Essential Men boosts your mood, performance, and energy levels while their antioxidant properties protect you against pollution and free radicals. On the other side, we create the Nightly Reload Men to aid you in getting the most out of your sleep, detoxing, and preparing for tomorrow.
Guarana, one of the main ingredients in the Daily Essentials Men formula, is widely known for its energizing and fertility-boosting properties. This antioxidant-rich fruit supports heart health in men and improves the source of Boron, a mineral regulating estrogen and testosterone levels.
Some of the other fertility vitamins and minerals in our supplements for men include:
- Folic Acid in Men Collection
- Zinc in our Daily Essential Men
- Selenium in the Daily Essential Men
Folic acid
Folic acid is vital for fertility in both women and men. The process of cell division and DNA synthesis is impossible without proper folate levels. Low folate levels have been associated with impaired sperm count and health.
One study, in particular, showed that folate deficiency was linked to lower DNA stability in sperms.
It is common practice among doctors to prescribe folic acid supplements to conceiving couples to improve sperm count and quality.
Another study found that supplementing a combination of folic acid and zinc for 26 weeks successfully increased sperm count in fertile and subfertile men. The results were promising, with an over 74% increase in sperm count.
Folic acid is one of the most energizing vitamins in our Men Collection. This workhorse vitamin plays a significant role in the absorption of nutrients and their synthesis to energy.
Zinc
You may already know zinc as a great immune system booster, but its benefits go way beyond. Zinc levels are associated with sperm volume and quality. Compared to any other human tissue, zinc is at its highest concentration when it comes to seminal fluid. With the development of sperm, zinc concentration increases, making it an important component of sperm health.
Selenium
Widely known for its antioxidative properties, it contributes to male and female fertility. Its effects on male fertility are so much that the sperm motility and count of infertile men who consumed a regimen of selenium and vitamin E improved.
Selenium directly contributes to sperm morphology, which includes their mobility and shape. Not only selenium aids the sperm to grow to a healthy size and shape but aids the process of entering the egg. Moreover, the antioxidant properties of this mineral protect the sperm cells from free radicals and oxidative damage.
According to a study from 2011, the sperm mobility, size, and shape of 690 infertile men improved by 52% after 100 days of consuming vitamin E and selenium. Furthermore, there was also a 10.8% pregnancy rate among the partners of these men.
Another study also showed a connection between infertility and low antioxidative activity and selenium levels in the sperm.
Our supplements are 100% vegan, and cruelty-free, making them a great option for those who find it hard to maintain optimal selenium levels due to a plant-based diet.
The Sanbera system, which consists of two daily and one nightly phase, builds your fundamental health foundations while nourishing you by following your natural rhythm. Our formulas are developed according to your gender-specific requirements to ensure the proper dosage of each necessary nutrient at optimal timing.
