A recent study by Harvard University showed significantly: pizza, chocolates, chips, burgers and other processed "fast" food with high fat content significantly impairs the ability of men to conceive. And because fast food "indulge" more young (for some teenagers and guys in general he is a necessary component of daily diet), the picture "emerges" disappointing. Soon it turns out that "produce" healthy offspring simply no one ...
As part of the research were studied in detail indicators of 3000 men from 18 to 20 years, of different nationalities. And what is revealed? The results revealed a definite pattern: vegetarians, as well as those, a sufficient amount of fruits and vegetables was in whose daily menu, chicken and sea fish, had a far more capable of sperm than fans of fast food, or a so-called "Western diet. " And this regardless of race.
Note that health experts consider normal amount of 39 million (or slightly more) of sperm per ejaculate. But in subjects who prefer junk food, sperm count was lower by 25.6 million, than people with the right eating habits.
Edition of The Independent, commenting on the results of the Harvard study, cites the opinion of the doctors linking to the variance with the presence / absence of dietary antioxidants. In the first case (health food) products rich in these substances, and processed food - not. In addition, the latter also increases oxidative processes in the body. A similar oxidation of the most negative impact on male fertility.
"You have to really be surprised how young men are sensitive to things that affect the sperm count. It's for them that other, as an indicator of masculinity ", - said one of the lead authors of the aforementioned study, Dr. Jorge Chavarro. He added that men's health can be markedly improved if diet change. Albeit at a later age.
However, it should be borne in mind:at an early stage of development of the body's bad habits cause almost irreparable damage to sperm production.
