Unhealthy diet and junk food undermine male fertility
the ROME - A given on all: sperm concentration fell by 60% between 1973 and 2011. How to protect your fertility? Eat well and from a young age: why are young adults who follow a balanced diet are 68 million sperm to the ejaculate compared to their peers who eat based on junk food (from the snack food industrial, desserts, pizza, soft drinks, etc). This is because it suggests an extensive research just published in the journal Jama Urology. "This is the most comprehensive study ever conducted that examined the dietary style in correlation with the testicular function of the male involved," says the author Feiby Nassan, of Harvard's T. H. Chan School of Public Health in Boston.

Probably because of the multiple environmental factors (the western diet has been repeatedly called into question) is still falling sperm quality: sperm concentration fell by 60% between 1973 and 2011; moreover, also for the concentration of testosterone, the male sex hormone, you observe a trend in decline. A man who is 39 million sperm per ejaculate, or less than 15 million per milliliter of sperm) a sperm concentration low, which not only impacts negatively on the possibility of having children, but also reflects clearly the state of his general health.

In the study were involved 2.935 19enni. The sample was divided into 4 groups according to their feeding behavior. It emerged that those who ate healthy (lots of fruits and vegetables, fish, whole grains) had 68 million sperm to the ejaculate, than those who followed a western diet and not very nutritious; the vegetarians had 33 million of sperm to the ejaculate of their peers who had been hurt. "Fertility is not an important parameter only for children" - said Nassan - but it is also related to the state of health and expectation of life of males. This study, concludes, reiterates the impact of nutrition on male fertility.
