Eating a diet rich in calcium and magnesium in the weeks prior to conceiving, might result in having a baby girl, claimed researchers. It is established fact that type of sperm that fertilizes the egg of women is accountable for the sex determination of the baby. But the mineral substance of would-be-father’s blood has no effect on the sex determination.
However, it is the mineral substance of would-be-mother’s blood that decided if the egg will be amenable to sperm bearing XX chromosomes, leading to a girl child or XY chromosomes, leading to baby boy. To analyze the effects of the vegetarian diet team of researchers examined nearly two hundred couples, who wanted to add baby girl to their families.
All the participants were instructed to include green, leafy vegetables, fruits and rice in their daily diet, nine weeks prior, they trying to conceive in order to raise the levels of calcium and magnesium in bloodstream of the would-be-mothers. Additionally, the couples were provided with vital minerals in the shape of tablets.
All the participants underwent through regular blood test and they were instructed to note the time of peak fertility every month. The research team was amazed to see that among all participants who participate in test, eighty percent of pregnant women, who consumed vegetarian diet delivered baby girls.
It was found that among thirty-two couples who took test, twenty-six mothers gave birth to girl child and only six delivered baby boys. Following the accurate diet can help would-be-parents to choose sex of their unborn child, although the exact role played by other aspects likes timing of conception was not evaluated, explained study author Annet Noorlander, a biologist.
