It has been confirmed by many medical studies that women or pregnant women who intend to be pregnant can properly supplement vitamin B to reduce infant congenital defects. A new experiment by Dutch scientists found that increasing the intake of vitamin B and zinc can help improve the quality of semen and may be beneficial to fertility success.
According to the latest issue of the British magazine New Scientist, in order to study the effect of vitamin B on male fertility, scientists from the University of Nijmegen in the Netherlands conducted a comparative study on 107 men who had made their partners pregnant and 103 men with fertility defects who still failed to make their partners pregnant after a year's efforts.
The analysis of blood and semen samples shows that the levels of vitamin B and zinc in the blood of the two groups of men are basically the same, but the number of sperm cells per milliliter of semen of men with fertility defects is only 5 million to 20 million, while the number of sperm cells per milliliter of semen of most men who make their partners pregnant is more than 20 million.
This fax can be used to carry out the main control? Group A, a 26-week trial: the first group was supplemented with zinc sulfate and placebo; The second group was supplemented with vitamin B and placebo; The third group was supplemented with zinc and vitamin B; The fourth group was given two placebos. After the test, their blood and semen samples were examined again.
The results showed that the number of healthy sperm produced by men with fertility defects who took zinc and vitamin B supplements at the same time increased by 74%, although most of them still failed to conceive their partners. The situation of other subjects did not change significantly. Researchers still don't know why vitamin B and zinc can increase semen concentration. They speculated that these substances may have some effect on the synthesis of DNA and transferred RNA.
