A low egg egg count means there is a decrease in the expected number of viable eggs in her ovaries. While you can’t increase the amount of eggs you have, you can help support the ovarian environment and protect oocytes (immature egg cells) from oxidative stress. Here are 5 key antioxidants that can help.. 🐟 Vitamin D. Research (PMID:32469224) has shown that adequate Vitamin D helps maintain egg count by helping with ovarian function and preserving follicles. It also has shown to help with ovarian reserve markers (PMID: 35147111). ✨Foods: whole eggs, low mercury brands of tuna, wild-caught salmon, plain dairy yogurt, cod liver oil 🍅 Lycopene.
