10 things sperm fear the most

There are many factors in daily life that can affect the quality of sperm. What kind of harm is sperm most afraid of? Let us learn about it today. Fathers-to-be must pay attention when preparing for pregnancy.

1. Barbecue

According to experts, fried and grilled starchy foods contain acrylamide, a carcinogenic poison. Men who like to eat grilled foods should be careful because this toxic substance can cause men to be weak and have low sperm count. In addition, some heavy metals and pesticides can damage the quality of sperm.

2. Beer

Beer will increase the burden on the liver and kidneys. If men with kidney diseases drink beer without restraint, it will lead to kidney failure.

3. Coffee

Coffee stimulates the body's sympathetic nerves. When the body's sympathetic nerves are active, the parasympathetic nerves will be suppressed, and the clinical manifestation is a decrease in sexual desire. People with mood swings usually have sympathetic nerves that are easily excited. It is best not to drink caffeinated beverages before sexual intercourse to avoid reducing sexual desire.

4. Tofu

According to the latest research from Harvard University School of Public Health, if you eat soy products every day, your sperm count will drop significantly. If a man eats soy products every day, he will only have 41 million sperm per milliliter of semen, which is much lower than men who eat less soy products. If a man's semen has less than 20 million sperm per milliliter, it is considered too low a sperm concentration and can easily cause infertility.

5. Milk tea

The main ingredient of creamer in milk tea is hydrogenated vegetable oil, which is a trans fatty acid. Trans fatty acids are not conducive to the activity of sperm, can reduce the secretion of male hormones, and interrupt the reaction process of sperm in the body.

6. Contaminated fish

Toxic chemical PCBs accumulate in fish's bodies. They are harmful to sperm. Fish from polluted waters should not be eaten. Experts say that if you really like to eat fish, deep-sea fish, especially wild salmon, is the best choice.

7. Canned food

Canned food is indeed very convenient, but almost all metal cans contain BPA coating, and there is a high possibility that BPA will penetrate into food (especially acidic foods such as ketchup). Many researchers believe that the largest source of BPA contamination comes from the food packaging industry.

8. Shopping receipt

Studies have found that about 40% of computer-printed shopping receipts contain the hormone-disrupting chemical bisphenol A (BPA), which can significantly reduce sperm quality and quantity.

9. Toxic bath products

Phthalates are also found in soaps, shampoos, cleaners and vinyl shower curtains. Heat from bathing accelerates the release of harmful chemicals, making them more easily accessible to the body.

10. Agricultural products treated with pesticides

Agricultural products must be thoroughly washed before consumption. Chemical pesticides can kill crop pests and sperm without any effort. Pesticides not only exist on the surface of food, but also enter the food. Therefore, it is best to choose organic agricultural products that are not produced using chemical fertilizers and pesticides.
