## Micronutrients and Gamete Quality

Emerging research continues to highlight the profound impact of targeted nutritional interventions on both oocyte and spermatozoa quality at a cellular level.

### The Mitochondrial Role

The egg is the most mitochondria-dense cell in the human body. Nutrients like Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) are essential for mitochondrial ATP production, which powers the complex process of meiosis.

### Insulin Sensitivity & Ovulation

Managing glycemic load is critical for regulating insulin levels, which in turn influences IGF-1 and androgen production in the ovaries—key factors for consistent ovulation.
