Short consumption of antioxidantes is associated with decrease reproductive capacity of the semen. This discovery was deed in two centers of fertility in Alicante and Murcia, Spain. According to Jaime Mendiola, main author of the article and researcher of the University of Murcia, previous study showed that men that swallowed big quantity of meat and dairy products produced with whole milk presented worse quality of the semen than those that consumed more fruits, vegetables and little quantity of dairy products. In this I study, we uncover that persons that consume more fruits and vegetables are swallowing more antioxidantes and this is the important point, says The specialists passed the four last years analyzing the connection between dietary habits or exposition to contaminantes in the localities of work and the quality of the semen between the patients attended in clinics of fertility. The objective of the study was uncover itself the consumption of vitamins, that act like antioxidantes, would be able to affect the quality of the semen. Those molecules, that are presents in the sustenances such as citric fruits, peppers and spinach, reduce the level of stress oxidativo that can affect the quality of the semen, and improve sperm concentration parameters like well as to its mobility and morphology. Participated of the study 61 men, of the which 30 had reproductive problems whereas the others 31 remained like control. "We observe that, between the couples that arrived to the clinical one with problems of fertility, the men with semen of good quality swallowed more vegetables and fruits (more vitamins, acid fólico and fibers and less proteins and fatnesses) than those men with semen quality decrease", explains Mendiola. "A healthy diet is not barely a good way of avoid illnesses, but also can have an impact in the improvement of the quality of the semen. What still do not we know is itself exists difference between swallow those vitamins naturally and in the form of supplements. In the studies that we are going to carry out ourselves U.S.A. (where the consumption of vitamins in compressed is very common) we will be examining the paper of the supplements, the Spanish scientist said. More and more scientific studies show that the quality of the semen of the man and the male fertility has declined in the recent decades. The results of the European study "Differences in seminal quality and reproductive results", carried out between 2000 and 2008 by the Valencia Infertility Institute show that the Spanish semen is in the last placements in we will have of volume (9o put), mobility (10o put) and concentration. However, after it analyze the quality of the sperm, the team of researchers evaluated to its function, in other words, to its capacity of cause to the pregnancy successfully. In that analysis, the Spanish sperm came in second place, behind barely of the semen of Portugal. "The quality of the Spanish semen is in on average of the European. Do not we be necessary concern ourselves, although of monitor the situation", observes Mendiola. In others countries of the European north, as Denmark, the quality of the semen from 40% of the young men is below the levels recommended for fertility. The Danish specialists are studying the question therefore is very worrying. The lifestyle can be related with the quality of the semen and parameters of human fertility. Beyond that, in the recent years, has been emphasized the importance of displayed babies the toxins and pollutants (pesticides, etc.) while in the womb, what also can commit to his future reproductive capacity when will become adults.
