OvaBoost Supports Healthy Ovulation and Egg Quality in Healthy Women Who Are Trying To Conceive 

OvaBoost is a dietary supplement that contains a combination of vitamins and antioxidants including myo-inositol, folate, melatonin, coenzyme Q10, vitamin E, grapeseed extract and alpha-lipoic acid to support egg health and ovulation.

Tell Me More About OvaBoost

OvaBoost has a unique formulation highlighted by a trio of ingredients – Myo-inositol, folic acid (also called folate), and melatonin – that has been studied as a way to support egg quality in women undergoing IVF. Folic acid is already well-known for its ability to prevent neural tube defects, and it is recommended that all women of child-bearing age take in a sufficient amount of folic acid. But, recent research in women undergoing IVF treatments indicates that when folic acid is given in combination with two powerful antioxidants, myo-inositol and melatonin, egg quality is significantly improved. (See a list of related scientific articles below.)

In addition, OvaBoost includes Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), which is an antioxidant. But, CoQ10 also plays an important role in energy production within egg cells. Once conception occurs, the amount of cell division that occurs to allow the egg to grow into an embryo and successfully implant into the wall of the uterus requires a tremendous amount of energy. CoQ10 works within the mitochondria (the energy powerhouse of the cell) of the egg cell to help ensure that energy production is optimal.

Finally, OvaBoost contains three additional antioxidant ingredients, Vitamin E, grapeseed extract and alpha-lipoic acid, to help ensure your egg cells are adequately protected from the damaging effects of free radicals.

The formulation for OvaBoost was developed on the basis of a large, and ever-growing, body of scientific literature that suggests how egg quality can be maintained as we age, and which points to effective and promising natural ingredients for supporting egg quality and healthy ovarian function. See Supporting Research below for a sample of the scientific papers (all available in MEDLINE) that were reviewed and considered in the development of this product.

Folate vs Synthetic Folic Acid

Due to the fundamental role that folic acid plays in reproductive health and pregnancy wellness, further explanation about this crucial vitamin is warranted. The words folate and folic acid are often used interchangeably to describe the vitamin known as vitamin B9. Folate is the form of this vitamin that naturally occurs in foods – dark, green leafy vegetables are good sources of naturally occurring folate. Folic acid is the synthetic form of vitamin B9 that is found in fortified foods and most dietary supplements. While the research in this area is still emerging, many experts believe that folic acid is not sufficiently metabolized by some people. To help ensure optimal utilization of the folate in OvaBoost, OvaBoost features methyl folate, a more bioavailable form of folate than synthetic folic acid.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much Myo-Inositol does OvaBoost contain?

OvaBoost provides 2 grams of Myo-inositol per daily dosage.

Who should take OvaBoost?

OvaBoost is intended to support egg quality and enhance the process of ovulation in healthy women who are trying to conceive women.

How long should I take OvaBoost?

We recommend taking OvaBoost for a minimum of 3 months, or as long as you are actively trying to conceive. OvaBoost can be discontinued once pregnancy has been confirmed.

Are there any known side effects or contraindications?

OvaBoost has no known side effects. However, as with any dietary supplement, if you have a pre-existing medical condition, we recommend that you discuss taking OvaBoost with your doctor. Please consult with your physician before taking OvaBoost if you have been prescribed a medication for depression or anxiety, or if you are taking the herb St. John’s Wort, as large amounts of Myo-inositol may have additive effects when taken along with drugs and herbs classified as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRI) and selective serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRI).

I notice that OvaBoost contains melatonin. Will this product impact my typical sleep pattern?

Melatonin is a powerful antioxidant compound that has been shown to be helpful for supporting egg quality, especially when given in combination with folic acid and Myo-inositol. In addition, melatonin is a frequently recommended natural ingredient for helping to restore normal sleep cycles in people with insomnia. OvaBoost contains a small amount of melatonin, similar to the amount given to trying-to-conceive women in clinical trials looking at the benefits of this natural ingredient for improving egg quality. When taken in the recommended dosage, we do not expect OvaBoost to impact your sleep cycle, or your day time energy levels or alertness. If you experience a change, we do recommend that you take all capsules just before bedtime.
