1, eat more foods rich in vitamin C and antioxidants, because vitamin C and antioxidants can reduce the risk of sperm damage and improve sperm motility.
2. Even short-term zinc deficiency will reduce sperm volume and testosterone content. Therefore, pregnant men should add foods containing zinc to their diet, and take at least12mg to15mg of zinc every day. Foods rich in zinc include lean beef, black-bone chicken and animal liver.
3. Increase the intake of calcium and vitamin D. Foods rich in calcium include low-fat milk and cheese. Milk and salmon contain vitamin D.
4. Quit drinking or reduce alcohol consumption. Although it is generally believed that it is safe to drink alcohol occasionally, studies have shown that drinking wine, beer or spirits every day will reduce the testosterone content and sperm count, and increase the number of abnormal sperm in ejaculation.
