Mediterranean Diet Improves Sperm Quality

January 6, 2024

A group of doctors from Italy decided to further study the impact of diet on male fertility. They investigated how nutrition would affect testosterone levels and sperm quality. It was found that adherence to the Mediterranean diet, rich in antioxidants, significantly increased testosterone levels and reduced sperm DNA fragmentation. The Mediterranean type of diet is based on vegetables, fruits, olive oil, grains, dairy products, and nuts. Those who follow it also moderately consume fish and wine.
