Low sperm count

Lifestyle Health & Fitness

Recent studies indicate that eating soy products regularly may decrease sperm count in men.

Also, obese men who ate soy regularly, had the lowest sperm count.

So no more soy patties for breakfast people!

This is a study, and like all studies, this is a gateway to further research.

Re: Low sperm count

Protein shakes also decrease the sperm count of men. I was quite surprised by this because alot of young men drink these as part of their body building regime...IAnyway came across this whilst reading a medical report at work.

Re: Low sperm count

I don't know Niksik...You'll have to ask someone who is in the medical profession. I'm in the legal field and just came across it whilst I was reading a medical report. But I was quite surprised because I don't think many men know about this side-effect. But I do believe if many were warned about this they would think twice about taking them.

Do you happen to have a link to this article?

Never heard such a study being done on protein shakes.. I'm quite surprised actually. I'd like to read this latest study. Please provide me with the source/link. Thanks.

Re: Low sperm count

Indian water chest nut (singhara) increases sperm count. Plums, pears, strawberries, dates, apple etc are good fruits for fertility.

Re: Low sperm count

Guys let me repeat that I am not in the medical profession and I do not have a link to it. I was reading a medical report on behalf of my cleints defence. And as part of this I had to review the claimant medical reports. In there the Dr said the young lady had come in to see him because she wanted a child. However, her boyfriend was frequently drinking protein shakes and the Dr said he warned him that the protein sheaked significantly affect the sperm count and that if they want to increase their chances of having a child then the guy would need to stop taking them. I don't know if the effects are long lasting or not!

Re: Low sperm count

Sweetpip, the protein shakes you read about are probably from a soy source of protein which makes perfect sense now!

There are usually 2 sources of protein used in shakes: whey and soy.
