Low sperm count is one of the biggest problems not just men, but women as well face in their marriages today – the reason being that any man suffering from it cannot impregnate his wife.
Lots of marriages have crashed as a result, and more men are falling victim to the avoidable ailment. Low sperm count is the inability of the body to produce the right quantity of semen, and is mostly caused by a poor diet. Most men fail to eat the right food(s), and as a result, the body fails to get the right nutrients to help it function adequately, and that includes producing semen in the right proportion. To fix this problem, as a man you must eat the right foods.
So what are those foods you must eat to help your body produce more sperm? Come with me as we explore some of them…
1. OYSTERS
As we’re well aware, oysters contain mineral called zinc. Zinc helps boost testosterone levels as well as sperm production. And an increase in testosterone levels equals a higher libido (sexual desire) and energy, which means that you are going to derive more pleasure from your sexual encounters besides having higher chances of getting a woman pregnant.
2. EGGS
Eggs are very rich in protein and vitamin E, and are considered to help in the production of healthy and strong semen. They are also believed to prevent sperm cells from the harmful effects of free radicals, which may kill sperm.
3. BANANAS
Bananas contain bromelain; an enzyme which is believed to increase libido in men. They are also rich sources of vitamin B, which can help bring an increase in stamina, making sure that you not only have an abundance of semen, but last long enough to enjoy your sexual encounters, and satisfy your partner.
4. SPINACH
Leafy green vegetables such as spinach are rich sources of folic acid. An inadequacy of folate can result in distorted sperm shapes such as ones with two heads or two tails. The sperm are also at an increased risk of chromosomal abnormalities. This means that firstly your sperm will find it difficult to reach an egg and even if it does reach an egg, it will not be able to fertilize it. Furthermore, even if these sperms are able to fertilize an egg, the chances of birth defects are quite high in such cases.
5. ASPARAGUS
A green vegetable that is high in vitamin C; asparagus is also a good food to increase sperm volume. Vitamin C protects the sperm cells from the damaging effects of free radicals and thus ensures that the sperm store in the male reproductive system does not get depleted.
6. GARLIC
Garlic is a very effective food that has been used for centuries in treating various physical ailments including heart problems and respiratory infections. What most people don’t know is that it is also a potent aphrodisiac and very effective in boosting sperm volume. It contains a compound called allicin which improves blood flow to the male sexual organs, increasing sperm production and semen volume.
7. CARROTS
A lot of people only know carrots to be good for the eyes, but they do even more than that. The vitamin A contained in carrots is an important nutrient for increasing sperm production as well as improving their motility.
8. DARK CHOCOLATE
Dark chocolate contains L-Arginine; an amino acid which is known to increase Fluid volume as well as improve the intensity of your orgasms. However, an excessive consumption of this can lead to great weight gain which will consequently reduce levels of testosterone in your body and your sperm count.
The consumption of these foods, coupled with a balanced diet will no doubt boost your sperm production. Good luck!
