(15-02-07) Fruits and Vegetables Improve Male Fertility

A new study shows that eating fruits and vegetables
can improve fertility in men.
Researchers from the University of Rochester
compared the dietary intake of antioxidants
of 10 fertile and 48 infertile men and correlated the
findings with sperm motility.
Infertile men were twice as likely to have a low
intake of fruits and vegetables (fewer than five
servings per day) compared with fertile men. Also,
men with the lowest overall intake of dietary
antioxidants had lower sperm motility than men with
higher intakes.
