Boost Male Fertility and Increase Sperm Count

Infertility is a growing problem worldwide.
It affects about one in every six couples, and researchers estimate about one in every
three cases is due to fertility problems in the male partner alone. While infertility is not
always treatable, it can sometimes be improved with a healthy diet, supplements, and
other lifestyle strategies. The list below includes some of the main lifestyle factors,
foods, nutrients, and supplements that have been associated with improved fertility in
men.
Numerous strategies may help improve your fertility, although this depends on its
cause. Also, keep in mind that fertility and libido usually go hand in hand with your
general health. For this reason, anything that improves your overall health is likely to
boost your fertility at the same time.
Here are eight tips to boost fertility and sperm count/quality:

  1. Lead a healthy lifestyle: Unhealthy lifestyle practices impair your overall health,
    including fertility.
  2. Lose excess weight: Obesity is associated with infertility. If you are infertile and
    obese, weight loss should be one of your top goals.
  3. Limit your alcohol intake: Avoid heavy alcohol consumption, as it may reduce
    testosterone levels and impair semen quality.
  4. Get enough folate: A few studies indicate that a low intake of folate may impair
    semen quality.
  5. Get adequate sleep: Getting adequate sleep is vital to maintaining your health.
    Restricted or excessive sleep has also been linked to poor semen quality.
  6. Snack on walnuts and almonds: Eating a lot of antioxidant-rich foods, such as
    walnuts, seems to benefit fertility. Almonds contain natural omega 6.
  7. Consider supplements: Antioxidant supplements also seem to work. Some
    evidence suggests that coenzyme Q10 improves semen quality. Omega 3 is
    excellent.
  8. Avoid eating too much soy: Soy is rich in isoflavones, which are associated with
    lower semen quality.
    The following is a list of nutrients and foods that promote sperm health:

Zinc Omega 3
Folate Omega 6
Vitamin B-12 L-arginine

Vitamin C Maca
Vitamin D Ginseng
Vitamin E Fenugreek Seeds
Coenzyme Q10 Ashwagandha Root
D-aspartic acid Maco Root

Focus first on improving your general health. Many of the tips mentioned are key
components of a healthy lifestyle. While none of them are guaranteed to work, if you
suffer from nutrient deficiencies or low testosterone levels, chances are that they may
help.
