Resum

[eng] Infertility is a disease that currently affects 1 out of 6 citizens worldwide in their fertile lifespan. The main strategy to treat it is the use of ART (Assisted Reproductive Technology), which has a huge impact and economic, emotional and psychologic costs on society. It is because of this that other approaches are being studied to prevent infertility and help improve the fertility taxes, with a special focus on promoting changes in both lifestyle and nutrition patterns. There is literature demonstrating that actions targeted to improve the overall diet quality help increase fertility, whereas unhealthy diets are detrimental for fertility in both men and women. There is evidence showing positive effects of nutrients such as n-3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids (PUFAs) and folic acid and a negative impact of Trans Fatty Acids. However, evidence regarding the benefits of other nutrients such as n-6 PUFAs, monounsaturated and saturated fats, vitamins (D, E, C, A) and minerals and trace elements (Fe, Zn, I, Se, Ca) is still limited. Further investigations are needed to clarify the topic and elaborate specific recommendations and clinical guidelines to boost fertility.
