A new study led by scientists from the U.S. Department of Energy's Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) found that a healthy intake of micronutrients is strongly associated with improved sperm DNA quality in older men. In younger men, however, a higher intake of micronutrients didn't improve their sperm DNA.
In an analysis of 80 healthy male volunteers between 22 …
Healthy young men with a Western-style diet may be able to boost their sperm quality by eating a small packet of walnuts a day.
These are the findings of a new study that shows healthy American men in their 20s and 30s who ate a 75g (2.5 ozs) packet of walnuts a day were able to increase the vitality, motility …

Males who place a laptop on their laps with the WI-FI on might have a greater risk of reduced sperm motility and more sperm DNA fragmentation, which could, in theory, undermine their chances of becoming fathers, researchers reported in the journal Fertility and Sterility this week.
This study was done in an artificial setting. The male participants were not tested …
I want to call to your attention a very informative article in today's Health Journal section of the Wall Street Journal on surprising risks to men's fertility. This is in additon to the article posted here yesterday on BPA in plastics causing a potential risk.
All these environmental risks may explain why we are seeing so many otherwise healthy men …
