What foods affect the quality of male sperm? The quality of male sperm is related to the probability of female pregnancy, so as men, we should know the knowledge of protecting our sperm. Now the editor will tell you what foods affect the quality of male sperm?
1、 Food that affects the quality of male sperm
1. Tofu
Men who like bean curd and other soy products should be careful. According to several US media reports recently, a new study from the Harvard University School of Public Health in the United States has once again made it clear that if you eat soy products every day, it will significantly reduce the number of sperm in men.
Soybean products have adverse effects on male reproductive system, especially sperm production. Soybean and its products are rich in isoflavone phytoestrogens. If you take too much, it will naturally affect the level of male hormones in men, resulting in a series of adverse consequences.
2. Beer
If you have kidney disease and drink beer without restriction, uric acid deposition will lead to renal tubular obstruction and renal failure.
3. Milk tea
At present, the pearl milk tea on the market is mostly made of milk essence, pigment, essence, cassava powder (referring to the pearl in milk tea) and tap water. The main component of creamer is hydrogenated vegetable oil, which is a trans fatty acid.
Trans fatty acids will reduce the secretion of male hormones, have a negative impact on sperm activity, and interrupt the reaction process of sperm in the body.
4. Fried chicken
Men who love barbecues in summer should pay attention to it. Experts pointed out that the starchy foods in barbecues and fried foods contain the carcinogenic poison acrylamide, which can cause men to have less sperm and weak sperm.
In addition, heavy metal cadmium and pesticide residues are toxic to sperm.
5. Coffee
The reason why coffee has a refreshing effect is that the caffeine it contains stimulates people's sympathetic nerves. Sympathetic nerve controls all activities of the day. When it is stimulated, people will be refreshed and energetic. The parasympathetic nerve is specialized in the physiological, erectile and other sex-related activities of people at night, and its relationship with the sympathetic nerve belongs to the relationship between the exterior and the interior.
When the sympathetic nerve activity is frequent, the relatively weak parasympathetic nerve will be suppressed, and the clinical manifestation is the decline of sexual desire.
6. Pork loin
Many people like to eat animal offal, especially when eating barbecue, "waist" is the favorite of many men. Recently, Taiwan doctors warned: eat viscera to nourish the body, and beware of heavy metal "cadmium" damaging sperm and infertility. Liver, viscera, pig testicles, people who want to "what to eat" should be careful, because eating too much, not only can not fill the body, but also may be sterile.
According to the latest research of Changgeng Hospital in Taiwan, it is found that the liver and kidney of pigs, cattle and sheep contain different amounts of heavy metal cadmium. People eat cadmium into their stomach while taking supplements, which may cause infertility. If they are smokers themselves, the probability of infertility is as high as 60%.
2、 Chinese medicinal materials affecting sperm quality
1. Tripterygium wilfordii
Adults take 10-20g of this product every day for 14 days, which can lead to sperm reduction, while continuous use for 60 days can kill most of the sperm. The sperm count significantly increases or returns to normal after 3 months of drug withdrawal.
2. Earthworm
The ethanol extract (earthworm powder) of earthworm decoction and its component succinic acid. The minimum content of earthworm powder to inactivate human sperm instantaneously is 5%, and succinic acid is 0.5%.
3. A flower with seven leaves and one branch
Its extract and crude soap have strong spermicidal effect in vitro.
4. Cottonseed
Gossypol extracted from cottonseed is an effective spermicide. At present, experts are using gossypol as a male contraceptive.
5. Camellia oleifera seeds
Camellia oleifera seed soap can inhibit mouse and human sperm in 20 seconds, and the minimum effective content is 001 mg/L and 0.6 mg/L respectively.
6. Sophora flavescens
It has strong and rapid spermicidal effect in vitro. The minimum content of instant inactivation of human sperm by Sophora flavescens is 15%, and its spermicidal effect is mainly broken sperm.
3、 Life habits affecting sperm quality
1. Shopping ticket
The study found that about 40% of computer-printed shopping tickets contain the hormone disrupting chemical bisphenol A (BPA), which will greatly reduce the quality and quantity of sperm.
2. Canned food
Canned food is really very convenient, but almost all metal cans contain BPA coating, so it is very possible for BPA to penetrate into food (especially acidic food such as tomato sauce). Many researchers believe that the largest source of BPA pollution comes from the food packaging industry.
3. Sexual equipment
Sexual appliances made of vinyl materials, such as vibration rings and masturbators, will release phthalates. This plastic softener is highly associated with cancer, allergies, birth defects and infertility.
4. Toxic bath products
Phthalates can also be found in soap, shampoo, detergent and vinyl shower curtain. In the process of bathing, heat will accelerate the release of harmful chemicals, which is easier to enter the human body.
5. Agricultural products applied with pesticides
Agricultural products must be thoroughly cleaned before eating. Chemical pesticides can not only kill crop pests, but also kill sperm effortlessly. Insecticides not only exist on the surface of food, but also enter the food. Therefore, it is best to choose organic agricultural products that do not use chemical fertilizers and pesticides in the production process.
6. Car heating cushion
It is very comfortable to use the car heating cushion, but it will cause the temperature of male genitals to be too high, which will damage the sperm quality. In addition, too long heating pad and hot bath time will lead to high testicular temperature and hinder normal sperm production.
7. Contaminated fish
The toxic chemical polychlorinated biphenyls will accumulate in the body of fish. This substance is harmful to sperm. Fish from contaminated water bodies should not be eaten. Experts said that if you particularly like fish, deep-sea fish, especially wild salmon, is the best choice.
4、 How to improve sperm vitality
Sperm motility refers to the ability or intensity of sperm activity. Active sperm is the most basic condition for penetrating cervical mucus, entering the fallopian tube and combining with egg cells, so it is one of the routine analysis contents of semen. Under the microscope, the sperm activity intensity is divided into three levels: in situ activity is level 1, curve movement is level 2, straight forward fast is level 3, and level 3 represents the strongest vitality. The in-depth study of sperm activity includes micrography, micrography, timed exposure photography and computer evaluation system for sperm activity, but it is only used for research and not for routine examination.
Harm of low sperm activity: male infertility caused by low sperm activity. Low sperm motility, also known as asthenospermia, is one of the most common causes of male infertility in clinical practice. The normal fertility of active sperm should be more than 70%. If the active sperm is less than 50%, it is abnormal. If the sperm is completely inactive, it is dead sperm disease.
How to improve sperm vitality:
"Among the causes of male infertility, sperm problems account for a large part." Andrologists said that there are many reasons for male sperm problems, but the main problem is that sperm vitality is not enough. Andrologists put forward four suggestions, and especially hope that married men who have not yet given birth can comply with the "implementation".
1. Pay attention to health preservation
Pay attention to the maintenance doctor of kidney essence. Some male friends are busy with their work and do not care about health care. But "male health care is extremely important". First, men should pay attention to adjusting diet structure and enriching kidney essence; The second is to reduce the consumption of kidney essence. Doctors who treat male diseases with integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine said that from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, kidney essence, also known as congenital essence, mainly comes from parents and is constantly nourished and supplemented by the acquired diet after birth. Especially for those with insufficient kidney essence, it is very effective to pay attention to the aftercare and strengthen the supplement and maintenance of kidney essence.
2. Adjust living
Providing a livable environment for sperm. At present, people's work is really tense and there are many social engagements, but some bad living habits will lead to the decline of sperm vitality, such as irregular life, spicy diet, long sitting, etc. Therefore, we should pay attention not to be addicted to alcohol and spicy, not to wear or wear less jeans, not to wash or take less sauna, and avoid working environment with high temperature and radiation. The doctor said: "Sperm is very delicate and fragile, and its growth environment requires temperature to be 1-2 degrees lower than body temperature. Therefore, we should maintain sufficient energy to provide a suitable environment for sperm growth and life."
3. Promote healthy sex life
People only know that dirty sex can infect sexually transmitted diseases, but few know that genital tract infection has a great destructive effect on sperm vitality. "The doctor said that infected semen will significantly affect the vitality of sperm, just like keeping fish in sewage. From a clinical point of view, young people's infection opportunities mainly come from dirty sex and sauna activities, so sexual life must be safe and healthy. In addition, after the occurrence of genital tract infection, you should also see the doctor in time, do not casually find some medicine to eat, and muddle through. Once you miss a good opportunity for treatment, The formation of chronic genital tract infection will increase the difficulty of treatment.
4. Use supplements carefully
Misuse may aggravate the disease, which may be affected by the overwhelming advertising. Many men who have problems in reproduction and sexual life usually simply seek answers from the aspect of kidney deficiency, resulting in the abuse of kidney tonic health drugs and food.
Experts pointed out that it is wrong to judge from both the theoretical aspects of traditional Chinese medicine and the cases received by their hospitals. The consequences of taking drugs for tonifying yin in patients with yang deficiency are not too bad, but if patients with yin deficiency take drugs for warming yang by mistake, they will add fuel to the fire. Moreover, supplements have indications and contraindications, and can only be used after verifying the constitution and under the guidance of a doctor. Otherwise, it may lead to the result of errors of yin and yang, aggravate the disease and endanger fertility.
It can be seen that the quality of sperm is related to the probability of pregnancy, so male friends must pay attention to protect their sperm vitality, do a good job in diet and change bad habits in life.
