There is no doubt that whatever we consume reflects in our body, hence the saying, “ you are what you eat.”
As a man, you really need to pay close attention to what you eat or drink as whatever is being consumed by you will in a way, affect your sperm production and quality.
Here is the list of foods that every man should eat to increase sperm quantity and quality.
Banana
Vitamins (such as A, B1, and C) found in bananas are good for the body system as they help the body in manufacturing healthier and stronger sperm cells. Bananas also contain a rare enzyme, Bromelain, which is known to prevent inflammation and also help boost sperm quality.
Walnuts
Research has shown that walnuts are a great source for improving fertility in men. Walnuts repair sperm cells by reducing lipid peroxidation (a process that causes damage to sperm cells). Walnuts contain Omega 3 fatty acids which helps increase sperm production by increasing blood flow to the testices. It also contains arginine, an amino acid that helps to build protein in the body. Proteins are great for increasing sperm count. This tree nut also contains antioxidants that remove toxins from the bloodstream.
Eggs
Eggs are a great source of protein and so are good for increasing sperm count. They also help to improve sperm motility.
Pumpkin seeds
Phytosterol, which is present in pumpkin seeds, helps to improve the production of testosterone in the body hence boosting sperm count and fertility. Pumpkin seeds also contain omega 3 fatty acids which increase the volume of semen by improving blood flow.
Spinach
Folic acid is essential for healthy sperm growth. They can be found richly in leafy vegetables. Spinach is a great source of folic acid thus, it should be included in your daily diet. Higher levels of folate reduces the number of defective sperm in the semen.
Dark chocolate
Dark chocolate is rich in arginine (L arginine) which helps to increase sperm production and boost sperm count.
Diets rich in zinc
Foods (such as beans, beef, and barley) should not be missing in your diet because they are rich in zinc which helps in the production of sperm cells. Zinc reduces sperm motility.
Asparagus
It is a vegetable which is very rich in vitamin C. It attacks free radicals and protects the testicular cells thereby improving sperm count, quality, and motility.
The following should be included in your diet regularly: maca roots, garlic, ginseng, honey, oysters, pomegranates, avocados, almonds, and tomatoes.
