最近zuì jìn有yǒu研究yán jiū发现fā xiàn,如果rú guǒ你nǐ想xiǎng顺利shùn lì怀孕huái yùn,最好zuì hǎo多duō吃chī水果shuǐ guǒ,哪怕nǎ pà你nǐ并bìng不bù爱ài吃chī。

同样tóng yàng地de,想xiǎng怀孕huái yùn的de女性nǚ xìng即使jí shǐ喜欢xǐ huan吃chī快餐kuài cān,也yě要yào远离yuǎn lí,因为yīn wèi多duō吃chī快餐kuài cān会huì增加zēng jiā不孕bù yùn风险fēng xiǎn。

同样tóng yàng地de,相比xiāng bǐ那些nà xiē从不cóng bù或huò很hěn少shǎo吃chī快餐kuài cān的de女性nǚ xìng,每měi周zhōu吃chī四sì次cì以上yǐ shàng快餐kuài cān的de女性nǚ xìng要yào多duō花huā近jìn一yī个gè月yuè的de时间shí jiān才cái能néng成功chéng gōng受孕shòu yùn。

她们tā men不孕bù yùn的de风险fēng xiǎn也yě会huì成倍chéng bèi增加zēng jiā,从cóng8%提高tí gāo到dào16%。

这些zhè xiē研究yán jiū发现fā xiàn显示xiǎn shì,包括bāo kuò水果shuǐ guǒ在内zài nèi的de高gāo质量zhì liàng饮食yǐn shí和hé尽量jǐn liàng少shǎo吃chī快餐kuài cān能néng改善gǎi shàn生育shēng yù能力néng lì,减少jiǎn shǎo受孕shòu yùn所需suǒ xū的de时间shí jiān。
