Reproductive medicine is an ever-evolving field.

Our evolutionary bodies (thats right they are not modern) need certain ingredients real food, sunshine, sleep, connection, clean water and movement as the basics in order to express health. Infertility and miscarriage occur not because of one thing; there are many things. Its about looking at the body as a whole and not just testes, ovaries and uterus. Gabriela Rosas book Fertility Breakthrough brings you back to whats important, to explore the root cause of a complex issue and empower individuals and couples to take complete charge of their life and health. This book will not only help with a successful pregnancy but improve the chances of a healthy child.

Gabriela Rosa has invested decades to develop and continuously fine tune an approach to fertility treatment that is a much-needed paradigm shift for couples experiencing reproductive challenges. As a scientist, I am concerned with adequate methods to reach effective results, and in Gabrielas latest book, Fertility Breakthrough , couples will find a comprehensive, scientific, evidence-based guide to understanding how to change their results. Gabrielas book speaks to the core of why many couples may struggle for years to have a baby, but most importantly how they can take matters in their own hands to overcome all previous difficulty and reach their most desired outcome of a healthy baby. I wholeheartedly recommend Gabrielas work to couples all over the world.
