Lemon & Ginger Smoothie Recipe for Wellness & Fertility

This incredible lemon and ginger fertility smoothie tastes great and boosts your fertility tremendously! Drink it every day for the best benefits! Get the recipe now :-)I am always scouting the internet for new and interesting “fertility recipes.”  I found this one last summer, tailored it to my needs, and I absolutely love it.  I think it tastes like a specialty lemon mocktail that I would sip on a fancy terrace on some European beach somewhere.  It is made with a whole lemon and a huge chunk of ginger, and it is very strong.  So strong in fact that my husband and brother make awful faces when they try it.  My mother thought it was delicious, however.  I think the drink tastes good if your body needs it!

In this blog post I’m going to give you the recipe for the fertility tonic and then I’m going to talk about why each of the ingredients is so good for fertility.

First, I have to give credit where credit is due.  I found this drink while doing Gabriela Rosa’s free 14 Day Fertility Challenge.  Most of what Gabriela does in this challenge, I had already done- clean eating, eliminated soy, dairy, gluten, etc., eliminated toxins, reduced exposure to chemicals harmful for fertility, etc.  But this lemon drink was a totally new idea to me.  She got the drink idea from Peter de Ruyter who originally developed it as a holistic cleanse for healing the liver and overall health.  Gabriela’s recipe is here and Peter’s recipe is here.

Lemon-Ginger Fertility Tonic Overview

Okay, let’s get talking about the drink. Ideally you are drinking it three times a day spaced out, but I just drink it in the morning and the evening.  You can drink it before or after eating, whatever feels better to you.  In the morning I drink it with breakfast, and then I usually drink the second 30 minutes after dinner.  Sometimes, however, I only think to make it in the afternoon, then I’ll just drink it then, and finish it in the evening.  No big deal!  Make sure to drink plenty of filtered water throughout the day to stay hydrated and support the gentle detoxification.

Sometimes I worry about the acid and my teeth!  For this reason I invested in some stainless steel straws, so I could know they were non-toxic, and the lemon could skip past my teeth.  I use these when drinking apple cider vinegar water also.

Fertility Smoothie with Lemon and Ginger

So, why is this lemon-ginger drink good for fertility?

The number one reason I drink this is because it helps make my body more alkaline- in a major way.  This is important because – and I’m about to get graphic here- you NEED your vagina and cervix to be alkaline so the sperm are welcome.  An acidic environment is not good for sperm.  I’ll confess- I don’t drink this tonic every day, but I do just before and around ovulation. As I drink it, I imagine myself becoming healthy, and my, ahem, parts, becoming receptive and welcoming to my husband’s sperm.

Ideally, you are drinking it every day.

The number two reason I drink this is because of its powerful health effects overall.  Just the combination of a whole lemon and a huge piece of fresh ginger is enough to stop a cold in its track! Whenever I feel my immune system struggling I make this drink!  I also love that it is supporting my liver. As I drink this I feel myself becoming more robustly healthy.

The number three reason is that when I mentioned this drink to my acupuncturist, and to my brother who is an acupuncturist, they both approved.  They said that lemon aids in nutrition, meaning that it would stimulate my body to hold on to nutrients better.  So when I drink the tonic I think about it helping me fully nourish my body.

Is there anyone who shouldn’t drink this?

You shouldn’t drink this if 1) It tastes terrible to you, or it makes you feel sick, 2) you are taking any prescription medications which the lemon peel pectin might interact with, or 3) you have a very, very sensitive stomach. The full lemon might just be too much for you.

Lemon and Ginger for fertility

Why each ingredient is good for you!

Lemon– Lemon is chock-full of Vitamin C which is a powerful antioxidant for fertility, and is thought to prevent age-related decline in ovarian function. Vitamin C is also associated with a shorter time until pregnancy. The lemon peel has pectin which helps emulsify the fats you add in and the lemon oils.  Lemon peel also has additional antioxidants which are crucial for developing healthy eggs (these particular ones are oligomeric proanthocyanidins or OPCs).  Supposedly some of the substances in the lemon peel also help remove harmful forms of estrogen from your body (like those from chemicals).

Ginger– Ginger is an incredible food that reduces inflammatory responses in the body (good for fertility) and encourages healthy, gentle, detoxification (good for fertility). It also helps in overall digestion, which increases your ability to nourish yourself.  Further, it is believed to stimulate circulation of blood in the body- making sure plenty gets to your uterus and eggs!

Walnut Oil or other Fat- Getting enough essential fatty acids is absolutely crucial to fertility. Body fat cells produce estrogen which is essential for getting pregnant.  Low body fat can lead to infertility problems such as anovulation. Ladies, babies are made from protein and fat!  You need to consume healthy fats! I use Walnut Oil because it is good for endometriosis and provides me with Omega-3s.  You can sub in whatever is most appropriate for you and your condition- flax oil, coconut butter (good for everyone), fish oil, or other healthy fat.  Coconut butter tastes the best! :-). This is the kind of coconut butter (“manna”) I use!

Sunflower Lecithin– Lecithin (NOT soy lecithin) is naturally occurring in many foods, including eggs.  In fact if there was an organic egg yolk lecithin I would totally use that instead of the sunflower!  But all my research shows that sunflower lecithin is a helpful supplement for overall health.  It has healing effects on the liver, nervous system, and kidney.  The choline in lecithin is an essential nutrient that lowers the risk of neural tube defects and helps prevent homocysteine levels (which are associated with miscarriage) from becoming too high. Most women don’t get enough choline, so this is a good way to add it to your diet.

Vitamin E– Vitamin E is a fat-soluble antioxident that is thought to have a beneficial effect on egg quality.  Some studies show it reduces free radical damage in ovarian follicles. A good multi-tocopherol Vitamin E is a good supplement to the fertility diet, and the body processes it best when taken with Vitamin C.  Although the people who originally developed this recipe recommend huge doses of Vitamin E, I have some concerns about large doses of Vitamin E over long periods of time.  I advise you to talk to your doctor and do your own research to decide on your dosage.  Out of an abundance of caution I I personally use a very modest dosage of 100 IU.

Cinnamon– The cinnamon is optional as I think it changes the overall taste and sensation of the drink.  The one really great thing about ceylon cinnamon is that it helps balance blood sugar levels- something very important for women with PCOS.  Try your drink with and without the cinnamon and see what you think!  Don’t put in more than the ½ tsp, as it can be harmful in large doses. Honestly, I usually skip this, I’m not a fan of the taste.

Filtered Water– I feel so much better making this from clean, filtered water that I know is free of fertility-harming toxins.  Check out my blog post on why it is important to filter your tap water and how to pick the best one for your budget!

One drink for now, and one for later! You can see my strainer set-up on the right!

Are you already drinking lemon water every day? Are you going to try this whole-lemon drink?  Leave a comment with what you thought of the taste!

Description

A delicious lemon and ginger fertility smoothie to boost chances of conception!


Ingredients

Scale

1 whole organic lemon

1 large knob of fresh ginger, peeled (I do about the size of my thumb, but you could do less)

1 tbsp organic walnut oil (or other fat- coconut butter, fish oil, flax oil)

2 tsp organic sunflower lecithin (NOT SOY LECITHIN!!!!)

1 capsule Vitamin E 100 IU Mixed Tocopherols

1 ¾ cup filtered water (just enough to reach the Max Fill line in my Nutribullet tall cup)

Optional: Add 1/2 tsp of organic ceylon cinnamon (especially good for those with PCOS)


Instructions

Gently scrub the lemon to make sure it is clean- we use this natural scrubber with coconut bristles and love it.   Put all the ingredients into your Nutribullet tall cup or other blender. Blend for 30 seconds.   Strain through a fine mesh strainer (we use one from this set). I use a spoon to help push it through, because I lack patience. Pour into two glass containers- one to drink now, and one that you can put a top on (like a pint size mason jar) and put in the fridge for later.  Drink the second within 24 hours!

Notes

Optional: Swap the lemon for a lime

Optional: Increase Vitamin E levels

As a note- although you can substitute different oils, I think coconut butter tastes the best!

      Hi Nicole! I used to put it in our compost but then I read that citrus debris is terrible for compost. So I’ve got no idea ?. You can blend longer and have less pulp and reduce waste a little bit. If you come up with seen idea, let me know!!

    Hello,
    I’m just wondering if you know off this is safe to drink after ovulation (when waiting to take a pregnancy test) and if it is safe during pregnancy.

    Thanks

      Yes, safe to drink during two week wait after ovulation and during pregnancy, with ONE caveat– some studies have said that truly huge amounts of ginger cause contractions. But we are talking like popping multiple pills of straight up ginger. So, if you’re going to do this drink while pregnant (which I certainly have- I make it every time I think I’m getting sick or am sick with a cold/flu), don’t ALSO ingest a ton of ginger in other ways throughout the day. Does that make sense? Ginger is a common and safe pregnancy herb and treatment for morning sickness, etc., but you don’t want to overdose! Be well and baby dust!

    The pulp can be mixed with a little whole flour to bake yummy ginger cookies, u can add a little coconut to the mix too.

    You can also use the pulp as flavour while steaming your chicken, meats and other cooking.

    Honestly I just tried this yesterday and it seems to be awesome. Though it was just lemon peel that I started with. I normally have this burning sensation in my lower abdomen which suggests to me that my body is too acidic. But immediately I ate lemon peel yesterday, my body became cool and I believe I will have greater testimony to share in no distant time. Am afraid of taking the lemon juice itself because of the acid in it. I want to know whether it is safe for me or will it bring back the burning sensation?

      Hi! I started drinking the lemon drink this week and I do really like the taste. Two questions. 1. Can I put the lemon and ginger in my juicer and then add it to blender with the rest? Only because straining he pulp is taking forever for me and is very messy. Maybe my blender isn’t so great (nutribullet). Or would a cheese cloth be better to strain? Also, I have found that I have had a big reduction in appetite and I’m not a big eater to begin with so am concerned. Is that normal? Thank you!!!

      • Anna Rapp

        February 12, 2019 at 9:37 am

        Hi Bridget!!! Are you blending for a solid 30-40 seconds? I have a Nutribullet and I just need to blend longer to let the pulp smaller. And yes, haha, it does take a long time! I think a cheesecloth would take even longer to strain. The only problem with the juicer is you won’t get all the goodness from the lemon rind and ginger. BUT if straining is making you crazy, its better than nothing!!! Yes, this drink fills me up to. I just space it out, so its like second breakfast 🙂 After dinner snack. But, I AM a big eater to begin with. So just try spacing it out away from meals so you can still eat a normal meal!

    Hi, I have only just started drinking this drink via the Gabriela Rosa 12 day fertility challenge as well as seeing it on your website (which is fab by the way), so it is too early to really comment on any impact. Will I even be able to tell as it will be internal?! What I wanted to know was how does it make your body more alkaline…isn’t lemon acidic? I have complete faith in it but like to understand the science that backs it up. Thanks :)x

      Here is the crazy thing- our body balances out what we eat. So when we eat acidic foods, our body compensates and we become more alkaline. When we eat alkaline foods, our body compensates and becomes more acidic. This is why it drives me crazy that people drink alkaline water- no, no, no! Blogs are incredibly confusing on this!! They’ll be like “here’s the alkaline diet” but its really acidic foods to create an alkaline body.

      Anyway, some readers have noticed significantly more CM with this drink! I found I was more energetic. Let me know what you find happens!!

    Good stuff! I didn’t strain it – just blended it for longer. Great without the cinnamon. I used coconut water. Definitely will make again!

    Can you heat this up or does it need to be cold?

    Can you drink this as a hot drink? I miss my warm coffee and would love to use this as a warm “substitute”!

    How long after drinking this did you become pregnant? I was recently diagnosed with pcos and have been trying to convince for almost a year.

    Dear Anna,
    I really like this recipe. I am preparing now a ginger tea with lemon. The last four circles a had very bed results in FSH levels – above 20. This cycle I started 2-3 days in the beguiling making this ginger tea because I read and miracle – my FSH is 14,79. I am not sure if this is the reason. After I found you I make a lot of changes in my diet and in my lifestyle. But I read indifferent articles that ginger is kind of natural stimulator and that it increase FSH. I need your advice – do you think it’s safe if I continue with the ginger tea during my follicular phase?

    I’m confused about the Vitamin E. I assume you mean open the capsule and put the powder in the blender… you don’t put the entire plastic capsule in do you?

    I have a thyroid issue and have read that I should avoid raw ginger. I have been drinking this drink for a few days and don’t notice any symptoms of thyroid dysfunction (heart palpitations, sweating), so I think it’s ok, but any thoughts on this issue for you or your readers? Thanks!

    It’s a great article. I just begin taking ginger and lemon tea 🍋 I had IUI a few weeks ago with no luck. After the negative results I was devastated and try to find good ways to help me get pregnant. I am ovulating fine and I can say my period is regular … but I had a lot of clots, so I was reading a little bit and wanted to give lemon and ginger a try to improve my circulation. I am also taking prenatals and good quality OMEGA 3. I am having smoothies with: berries, cacao, flaxseed, rolled oats, banana, honey and walnut.
    Warm wishes ladies.
    Thank you for the your help 🌻🐝

    Can I drink this every day of my cycle or are there certain times it’s best to drink and times it’s best not to?
