The number of sperm in patients with asthenozoospermia is relatively normal, but the vitality of sperm is quite weak, which is also one of the factors leading to male infertility. So what are the effects of magnesium and zinc on asthenozoospermia?
Foreign studies have shown that the fertility disorders of some male infertility patients are related to the deficiency of trace elements in the body, with zinc playing a particularly important role. It is not only involved in the composition of sperm, but also closely related to the birth, development, and maturation of sperm.
Doctor Zhang, director of the urology department of a hospital, said that zinc was in direct proportion to the quality and density of semen, and zinc deficiency would affect sperm metabolism and vitality, thus "delaying" testicular development. When zinc is insufficient, it will directly "harm" the prostate tissue, and the semen contains one third of the prostatic fluid, which also leads to poor semen liquefaction, reducing the vitality of sperm, thus affecting the process of fertilization.
If men want to improve their fertility, don't forget to supplement with zinc. Adult men need 15 milligrams of zinc per day, but since the amount absorbed is usually smaller than the supplement, it is best to supplement more than 15 milligrams of zinc per day. Generally speaking, there are two ways to supplement zinc: one is to take oral zinc preparations, and the other is to eat foods containing zinc, such as seafood, apples, bananas, etc.
In addition, magnesium can improve the vitality of sperm, so while supplementing zinc, attention should also be paid to supplementing magnesium to achieve the goal of "dual pronged". Foods rich in magnesium include beans, seaweed, oats, etc.
In daily life and diet, paying more attention to supplementing the necessary elements for the body can not only effectively prevent asthenozoospermia, but also an effective way to maintain physical health!
