Bud Fertility Nutritional Supplement
One in Seven couples, (3.5 million people in the UK) have difficulty conceiving*, and male sperm count in the west has dropped by 50% in the last 40 years.**
Bud was inspired by our personal experience of unexplained secondary infertility. A journey that lasted four long years, but very happily – and with the help of IVF (and some very clever people at
Guy’s & St Thomas’ Hospital), culminated in the arrival of twins!
However, this experience gave us an insight into the reality of fertility problems that many of us unexpectedly have to face.
Many factors including changes in diet, lifestyle, stress and the tendency to start a family later in life, are considered the main contributing factors to our weakening natural fertility.
It is Bud’s mission to support all couples when they first decide to try for a baby, helping them to become Baby Body Ready – and to continue supporting them during the 18 months to two-year average period it takes
to achieve natural conception.
So, whether you’re just starting out or have been trying to conceive for a while, Bud’s innovative formulas contain adaptogens, minerals and vitamins, proven to support vital aspects of reproductive health and function.
Developed by clinical nutritionists, Bud’s approach in developing these formulas has been holistic – we have included all the nutritional essentials, and have added powerful adaptogens to uniquely target male and female hormone balance, reduce stress and increase well-being – all vital, but often overlooked factors that affect our natural fertility.
