Mediterranean diet can help with IVFA Mediterranean diet could help women receiving IVF to achieve successful pregnancies, a study has suggested.

Researchers asked women about their eating habits before they underwent the treatment and found those who ate more fresh vegetables, fruit, whole grains, legumes, fish and olive oil, and less red meat, had the better outcomes.

The study found women who ate that way in the six months before IVF had a 65 per cent to 68 per cent better chance of becoming pregnant and giving birth to a live baby than women with the lowest adherence to the Mediterranean-style diet.

The research, which is published in the journal Human Reproduction, focused on dietary patterns rather than individual nutrients, foods or food groups.

It assessed the diet of 244 women via a food frequency questionnaire when they enrolled at a clinic in Athens, Greece, for their first IVF treatment.

The questionnaire asked them about how often they ate certain groups of food in the preceding six months before they were given a MedDiet Score, which ranged from 0-55, with higher scores indicating greater adherence to the Mediterranean diet.

The researchers was led by Associate Professor Nikos Yiannakouris at the department of nutrition and dietetics at Harokopio University of Athens

“The important message from our study is that women attempting fertility should be encouraged to eat a healthy diet, such as the Mediterranean diet, because greater adherence to this healthy dietary pattern may help increase the chances of successful pregnancy and delivering a live baby,” Yiannakouris said.

“It should be noted that when it comes to conceiving a baby, diet and lifestyle are just as important for men as for women.

“Previous work from our research group among the male partners of our study has suggested that adherence to the Mediterranean diet may also help improve semen quality,” he said.

“Taken together, these findings highlight the importance of dietary influences and diet quality on fertility, and support a favourable role for the Mediterranean diet on assisted reproduction performance.”

TASMANIA STATE ELECTIONLabor has pledged to fix Tasmania’s health “crisis”, while Premier Will Hodgman spruiked a timber mill on the second day of campaigning for the March 3 election.

After declaring health Labor’s number one priority, leader Rebecca White on Tuesday announced a flagship $560 million six-year package aimed at recruiting more doctors and nurses and reducing emergency waiting times.

“Thousands of Tasmanians have been affected by the crisis in health and many, many more have a loved one who has been affected,” she said outside a health clinic in the Franklin electorate.

“It’s time to say ‘enough is enough’.”

Labor plans to recruit 500 health staff, put $75 million towards improving wait times for outpatients and update the plan for the state’s four major hospitals.

Hospital infrastructure would get $250 million, while $8 million is to be spent on ambulances.

A recent Productivity Commission report found Tasmanians wait the longest for ambulances in , with the average response time ballooning to more than half an hour.

Liberal Health Minister Michael Ferguson spruiked Tasmania’s health system though, saying elective surgery times were improving under the Liberal government.

But Ms White accused Mr Ferguson of “cherry picking” data from the latest Report on Government Services.

“Our health workers across Tasmania have had a very different experience,” Ms White said.

“What he hasn’t acknowledged is that there are 30,000 people waiting to get on the elective surgery waiting list.”

The premier, meanwhile, spent a second consecutive day in the state’s north.

He announced a $190 million hardwood mill plant for Burnie that would create 221 jobs.

Mr Hodgman said the Liberals health policy would be revealed in coming weeks.

“I will make the point again that in successive budgets we have put more into health than Labor and the Greens ever did,” he said.

“They’vebeen wearing their school uniforms in the afternoons after preschool for a few months,”the boys’mum Tonya Lunn said.

“They’re pretty excited and have been looking forward to it for a long time now.”

The Lunns, aged five, are one of two sets of identical twins who will start kindergarten this year at St Therese’s Primary in New Lambton.

They will be in a separate class toScarlett and Mackenzie Hill, who are also five.

“It’s a bittersweet feeling,” Mrs Lunn said.

“They’re so ready to go and I’m really excited about the fact they’re going and we’ll be moving on to the next phase of life, but I’m sad this is the end – I feel quite torn about it.

“I will miss them a lot and the house will be a lot quieter.”

Mrs Lunn said her boys had been preparing by practising their drawing and letters, as guided by their older sister Sophie, who will start year two.

“Hamish is really curious about science and loves video games and reads those kinds of books,” she said.

“Charlie loves art and drawing and is a helper, he very much wants to be involved and engaged.”

“Once they get confident we plan to separate them – we want to ensure they get to develop their own skills sets without all the comparing that happens,” she said.

“They really stuck together last yearfor emotional support and this will be a big exhausting year.

“These guys look after each other and are always checking the other one is okay.”

The boys said they were both most looking forward to “making art”.

Natalie Hill said her daughters had been “absolutely ready for school for about five months” and had grown even more excited since finishing preschool and starting to talk about seeing theirolder cousins and friendsat school.

“They love learning and ask a lot of questions,” Mrs Hill said.

“They lovewriting on Christmas cards, learning new words and spelling.

“Scarlett picks things up very quickly and then gets bored, so I think she’ll be into sport and activity.

“Mackenzie is very creative and arty and loves singing and dancing.

“She’ll work on things and keep going and going and going.”

Scarlett said she thought school would be about “being happy” and she was “looking forward to playing in the sandpit” while Mackenzie said school would be “fun” and she wanted to “make craft”.

Mrs Hill said separating the girls into different rooms at preschool was “the best thing I ever did”.

“Mackenzie used to follow Scarlett around and we wanted her to gain some independence,” she said.

“Ever since then Mackenzie has just blossomed. They loved talking to each other about what they did that day with their friends.”

But Mrs Hill said the girls were still each other’s biggest fans.

“If one is in trouble, the other can get really upset,” she said.

“They do not like the idea of the other one getting left out.”

Mrs Hill said it would be difficult to see her girls leave the nest, but her husband Daniel said he was excited for them, that they were “ready for the next challenge” and he was looking forward to seeing his “hard-workers thrive”.

“I’m ready for them to go,” Mrs Hill said.

“But I’m starting to realise they’re going to school and there’s no going backwards.

“I’m going to have a very strange face on the first day trying to hold it in until they get into their classrooms.

“They’re going to be nervous because it takes them a while to adapt to an environment.

“They’ll cling a little bit but after an hour they’ll be alright, once they’re able to make themselves feel comfortable.”

Both mothers said while they could usually tell their children apart, it wasn’t alwayseasy.

“Charlie tends to be the one that pretends to be Hamish,” Mrs Lunn said.

“Hamish does not seem to get the same joy out of it.

“We’ve cut Hamish’s hair shorter and left Charlie’s a bit longer.”

Mrs Hill saidScarlett had small pink stones in her earrings and a pink schoolbag, while Mackenzie had purple versions.

“They correct people if they get mixed up, I don’t think they’ve realised yet they could be playing tricks!” she said.

“Scarlett’s our fashionista. She’ll be the one wanting to change her uniform andwear a belt or pink socks.”

Students’ return to classrooms will be staggered from this week, depending on their school and grade.

CRICKET AUSTRALIA ANNOUNCEMENTA world record for attendance at a women’s sporting event could be set with the MCG to host stand-alone finals for the men’s and women’s World Twenty20s in two years’ time.

Ten countries will compete in the women’s T20 in February and March of 2020, before 16 men’s teams arrive for their tournament in October and November of that year.

The tournament will mark the first time the men’s and women’s competitions have been split when both played in the same year.

Both women’s semi-finals will be held in Sydney before the final is held at the 100,000-capacity MCG.

The International Cricket Council are talking up the potential for a near-sellout at the March 8 decider which has been scheduled to coincide with International Women’s Day.

That could potentially beat the 90,185 crowd that packed out the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California in 1999 for the women’s soccer World Cup final between the USA and China.

At least 70,000 fans packed out India’s Eden Gardens in 1997 when faced New Zealand in the women’s 50-over World Cup final, while Lord’s was sold out for last year’s decider.

‘s side, led by superstar batter Meg Lanning, have won three of five world T20s and will be out to reclaim the title during this year’s tournament in the West Indies.

“It’s very exciting to think about … to potentially play in front of over 90,000 people,” Lanning said on Tuesday.

“I think it just shows where the women’s game is at. It’s always evolving and it’s exciting to see where it is in 2020.”

The men’s semi-finals will be split between the SCG and Adelaide Oval before also culminating at the MCG.

Eight cities in total will be used between the two tournaments.

Hobart and Geelong will feature in the men’s group stage while Canberra, the WACA, Melbourne’s Junction Oval and Spotless Stadium are to each host women’s group matches.

‘s six main venues – including Perth’s new Optus Stadium and Bellerive Oval in Hobart – will then be used for the Super 12 stage of the men’s tournament.

Steve Smith’s side have never made it beyond the world T20 semi-finals despite enjoying strong success in 50-over and Test cricket.

“When T20 cricket started, it was just a smash-and-grab sort of game,” Smith said.

“The game has changed so much and the strategy behind the game is really important.

“Hopefully we can get that trophy that’s eluded us for so long.”

LAURYN EAGLE COURTProfessional boxer Lauryn Eagle will appeal her conviction for drug driving, with her lawyer saying she should not be penalised for simply taking her prescribed medication.

The 29-year-old was on Tuesday convicted of driving with an illicit drug in her system, fined $600 and banned from driving for six months.

Magistrate Hugh Donnelly at Sydney’s Downing Centre Local Court rejected an application by Eagle’s lawyer Adam Houda to record no conviction, saying it was “not an acceptable sentence” because of her criminal history and poor driving record.

Her case did not attract the leniency which would be afforded to a first time offender.

The magistrate referred to evidence that the methamphetamine detected in her system at a random breath test in July 2017 was an ingredient of Desoxyn, a drug prescribed to her in the US to treat ADHD.

Eagle pleaded guilty to driving with an illicit drug in her system, after the magistrate rejected an application to have the charge disposed of under the Mental Health Act.

According to the police facts, Eagle saw her GP about the side effects she was having from a drug prescribed to her for ADHD and told him her research identified another drug, Desoxyn.

The GP noted the drug was not prescribed in but gave her a prescription she could present to a doctor in the US on her April 2017 attendance at a boxing training camp.

The facts referred to an internet search of Desoxyn, which included a warning about possible impairment when operating machinery or driving.

Referring to NSW law, the magistrate noted there was a defence to consuming morphine if it was prescribed for medicinal purposes but this did not extend to methamphetamines.

“Where a driver is taking any kind of medication, there is an obligation to find out whether it will affect his or her ability to drive,” Mr Donnelly said.

After her guilty plea was entered, Mr Houda asked the magistrate not to record a conviction saying Eagle was not aware that Desoxyn contained the offending ingredient.

“No way in hell she would have driven if she knew that,” he said.

Mr Houda also submitted she had been punished enough because of unfair publicity linking her to an illicit substance.

“Having a conviction recorded against her would be unjust and unconscionable when you take into account the facts in the matter.”
