What to eat to conceive a boy and how to eat to have a girl?

That is, is it possible that the maternal diet can influence the sex of the unborn child?
Let’s find out together in this article.

DIET FOR THE CONCEPTION
HOW TO CONCEIVE A MALE OR A FEMALE

From a scientific point of view, there is no evidence that the sex of the unborn child can be influenced by the diet of the expectant mother. However, studies have been conducted that are based on the percentages of how many women, with a certain diet, had the best chance of having a son or daughter.

WHAT TO EAT TO DESIGN A MALE

For example, an English study found two curious data for women who wish to have a boy.
56% of women who were not on a diet before conceiving a child, and therefore had not reduced calories, had a boy.

The researchers also determined how many calories moms planning to get pregnant and wanted to have a baby boy had to consume. There is talk of 2250 calories per day.

Instead, a diet of less than 1800 calories increased the chances of having a girl.
Another curious thing is that, according to the same study, there would be a correlation between the consumption of breakfast cereals and the chances of having a son. And also between having breakfast and having a son.

This is probably due to the fact that breakfast cereals, in addition to having a certain energy density, are enriched with vitamins and minerals (generally B vitamins and iron).

Infatti, tra i nutrienti che non devono mancare in una donna che vorrebbe avere un maschietto, ci sono le vitamine del gruppo B, la vitamina E, il potassio, il calcio e la vitamina C.
Lo stesso studio infine suggerisce di aumentare il consumo di banane nella dieta: probabilmente proprio per il fattore potassio.
Altri cibi ideali per concepire un maschietto sono le patate e gli agrumi.

COSA MANGIARE PER CONCEPIRE UNA FEMMINUCCIA

Uno studio olandese darebbe ragione a quello dei colleghi inglesi.

Si è visto infatti che le donne che volevano avere una bambina dovevano limitare il consumo di cibi ricchi in potassio. Altra cosa da fare è ridurre il consumo di sale e fare una dieta ricca di latte e latticini magri.

The researchers explained that these three things – reducing salt intake, not consuming too much potassium-rich foods, increasing consumption of milk and dairy products – led to a very high success rate in conceiving a girl.

Add to that keeping calories below 1800 before conception and our chances will go up dramatically. Other foods that favor the conception of a girl are chocolate, vegetables and fish, while the future father who wants a girl must reduce the consumption of coffee.
