Bananas, citrus fruits, avocados, watermelon, and apples contain vitamins, magnesium, lycopene, and antioxidants that help increase sperm quantity and quality.
Low sperm count and poor quality affect men’s fertility. Master and doctor Doan Vinh Binh, Medical Information Center, Tam Anh General Hospital, Ho Chi Minh City, said that a selective diet with appropriate fruits contributes to improving this condition.
Banana Rich in vitamins B1, C and magnesium, which help increase mobility and support sperm production. Bananas also contain an enzyme called bromelain that promotes increasing their number and mobility.
Citrus fruits Contains antioxidants that help protect sperm from damage caused by free radicals and oxidative stress. Vitamin C found in these fruits helps improve endurance, making conception easier.
Butter Providing vitamin E counteracts the effects of reactive oxygen species and improves sperm quality. Folate in avocados supports spermatogenesis and the development of sperm cells. Folate is also necessary for DNA replication, thereby improving its mobility, quantity and quality.
Apple rich in fiber and antioxidants, especially flavonoid compounds, which have the ability to increase sperm count and protect sperm from oxidative damage.
Watermelon Lots of lycopene – a powerful antioxidant that helps protect sperm from oxidative damage, improving quantity, quality, and motility.
Grape Contains resveratrol and quercetin, which have the ability to protect against oxidative damage. Grapes also contain a lot of vitamin C, improving sperm motility and reducing DNA damage.
Mango Contributes to improving sperm count and motility thanks to antioxidants such as vitamins C, E and beta-carotene. These antioxidants help neutralize free radicals, reduce oxidative stress and enhance male physiology.
In addition to supplementing with fruits to help improve physiological health, doctor Vinh Binh recommends that men should work, rest properly, control stress, regularly exercise with moderate exercise, and have a nutritious diet. Balanced nutrition, limit alcohol, quit smoking and stimulants.
Some natural nutrients such as eurycoma longifolia (French pine extract) and ocean oyster essence have the effect of activating the male body to produce endogenous testosterone and nitric oxide regularly. Thanks to that, they help increase sperm quality and physiological health.
Men should have regular health checks and see a doctor if they have physiological or pathological problems related to reproductive health.
