According to media reports, experts have pointed out that the three factors that have the greatest impact on men's sperm are diet, nightlife, and work.
An imbalance in diet can lead to insufficient nutrition. Nowadays, people's living standards have undergone a qualitative leap, especially among white-collar workers. Due to their relatively loose economy, they often rely on high fat, high protein, and high calorie foods such as seafood and fast food as their main foods, resulting in a very unbalanced diet. In fact, dietary imbalances can lead to excess nutrition and malnutrition. Insufficient nutrition leads to changes in the composition of semen. Because semen itself is composed of more than 52 substances such as proteins and vitamins. Only with comprehensive nutrients can sperm live fully. On the contrary, if there is insufficient nutrition, the sperm will be in a hungry state, half alive, and the quality will be greatly reduced.
Smoking and drinking during nightlife can lead to decreased sperm count. After work, many white-collar workers like to go to a pub or dance hall, and some people use it as a good way to relieve stress. And almost all of these nightlife can't be separated from cigarettes and alcohol. In fact, smoking and excessive drinking not only harm the lungs and stomach, but also kill sperm! Those who smoke more than 31 cigarettes a day have an almost doubled risk of producing sperm with abnormal morphology. The number and vitality of semen in people who smoked for 10 years decreased significantly compared to those who smoked for a shorter period of time. In addition, after drinking a lot of alcohol, 70% of the sperm in men's semen is not healthy or active.
Psychological stress at work affects the endocrine system. Working at a fast pace and under too much pressure can cause psychological tension among white-collar men, while long-term mental stress can have an impact on reproductive ability. Studies have shown that long-term or severe stress can lead to a decrease in semen volume, sperm count, and sperm motility. Nervous emotions can play an important role in the reproductive process by affecting the neuroendocrine system, and any interference with neuroendocrine balance can have adverse effects on reproductive function.
