In daily life, many women love to drink milk tea. Every time they go shopping with their husband, they buy a cup for themselves and also buy one for him to drink. Milk tea has a strong and smooth taste, which combines the aroma of milk with the refreshing taste of tea. Therefore, many people believe that milk tea is a healthy drink. In fact, this understanding is unscientific. Some health experts say that drinking too much pearl milk tea can kill sperm, and men of childbearing age should try to drink less.
Milk tea contains spermicidal ingredients
On the street, the pearl milk tea we buy does not contain either milk or tea. Most of these milk teas are made from milk essence mixed with tea powder and other substitutes such as essence and pigment. Milk essence is not milk powder or milk product, but tea powder contains very low theophylline and tea polyphenols, so the beverage can not be called "tea".
Compared to real milk, the "milk" in pearl milk tea lacks calcium, B vitamins, and vitamins A and D, and its protein content is very low. There are almost no useful nutrients in milk. On the contrary, it contains a large amount of sugars, saturated fats, and trans fatty acids.
Most importantly, a large amount of milk essence is used in milk tea, and the main component of milk essence is hydrogenated vegetable oil, which is a trans fatty acid that can reduce the secretion of male hormones and affect sperm vitality. So, men who are planning to have a baby should try to drink less milk tea.
Couples of childbearing age should stay away from milk tea
Milk essence contains trans fatty acids. Long term intake of trans fatty acids not only increases the incidence rate of cardiovascular diseases and tumors, but also has a greater impact on reproductive health. On the one hand, it affects the quality of sperm and egg cells, increasing the risk of infertility and fetal malformations. On the other hand, trans fatty acids can affect the synthesis of sex hormones, which can lead to menstrual irregularities, sexual dysfunction, and an increased risk of infertility.
For men, trans fatty acids have a faster impact on their bodies and can easily inhibit sperm motility. For women, the time is slower, but oocytes are more affected by long-term chronic damage factors such as radiation and drugs.
Therefore, for couples of childbearing age, in order to have a healthy baby, it is best to stay away from foods with higher levels of trans fats, such as cream cakes, bread, potato chips, etc.
