All the scientifically proven nutrients, which improve sperm motility
Sperm cells, we’re on your tails with the help of new tech An exciting new study from the University of Birmingham shows that scientists can learn a great deal about fertility in men by analysing the movement of the tails of sperm cells [1.

Research Shows That Q10 Coenzyme Benefits Male Fertility By Improving Sperm Motility And Protection From Oxidative Stress Ubiquinone, commonly called Q10 coenzyme, just Q10 or CoQ10, is a vitaminoid. This is a compound that acts like a vitamin. However, it is unable to be produced by the body. CoQ10 must be sourced from diet to…
WHY CARNITINE IS CRITICAL FOR MALE FERTILITY Overview Carnitine improves male fertility by supporting sperm count, sperm concentration, motility, nuclear DNA integrity and morphology. L-Carnitine is present in almost every cell in the body. It is derived from the amino acids lysine and methionine. Carnitine is the generic name for several compounds. These include L-carnitine, acetyl-L-carnitine,…
One of the most important and effective antioxidants in the human body is glutathione (GHS). It can be found in fungi, animals, plants and some bacteria and prevents oxidative damage caused by reactive oxygen molecules. A non-essential nutrient, the body is able to produce glutathione itself. Glutathione relies on the availability of the amino acids cysteine, glycine and…
Research Shows That The Amino Acid Arginine Benefits Motile Sperm And Maintains Male Fertility. This Amino Acid Also Helps To Promote Strong Erections. The non-essential amino acid arginine performs a variety of roles in the body. It contributes to cell division, waste removal, immune function, wound healing and hormone regulation. One of the key functions…
There are several benefits of zinc for fertility: for men it is an essential trace element to produce healthy sperm. For women, it is important both before and during pregnancy to both themselves and their developing baby. Zinc (Zn) is an essential trace element for human nutrition. It is an integral part of many enzyme systems, including DNA polymerase complex and…
Studies show that pine bark extract may help to enhance sperm health. It may also help improve erectile function when taken with the amino acid L-arginine. In recent years there has been growing interest in the properties of plant extracts with a high polyphenolic content, e.g. extracts of pine bark, grape seeds or green tea. The…
zinc 5 mg folic acid + 66 mg zinc (improves sperm count by 74%, but induces 4% increase in abnormal sperm) – http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11872201 edit etc A worrying history Carlsen et al analysed a total of 61 studies including 14,947 men from the years 1938 to 1991, for mean sperm density and mean seminal volume. Their…
Clinical Study: Fatty Acid (FA) Composition Of Sperm Cells Is An Important Determinant Of Fertility In 2009, eighty-two infertile men with idiopathic male factor infertility and seventy-eight fertile men were enrolled in a clinical study. The semen parameters were assessed according to World Health Organization criteria. Several fatty acids and enzymes were measured to evaluate the…
Research shows that the trace element selenium benefits the structural integrity of sperm. It also helps to protect sperm from oxidative stress. Selenium (Se) is a trace element and essential nutrient for humans. It helps to protect the cell DNA from oxidative stress, supports DNA synthesis, and has a role in thyroid hormone metabolism. By extension, Selenium is therefore…
