Foods that increase your chances of conceiving twins
4. Dairy products
A study in 2006 showed that women who regularly consume dairy products e.g milk, yoghurt, butter are five times more likely to have twins.
This may be as a result of Insulin Growth Factor (IGF), a growth protein that is present in cow milk and can also be gotten from other animal products.
When a woman consumes a larger quantity of dairy products, she is prone to release more than one egg during ovulation and this increases her chances of conceiving non-identical twins.
5. Cassava
Cassava like yam is also known for increasing fertility. It also helps increase the chances of getting pregnant twins due to its hyper ovulation properties.
According to experts, natural hormones in cassava may trick the brain into thinking there is insufficient estrogen, causing the brain to naturally release more of a hormone called gonadotropin, which increases the ovulation rate.
Cassava can be consumed in the form of garri, tapioca, lafun etc.
