We do not deny that some formulas have certain effects on male infertility caused by certain reasons, but if we do not distinguish and analyze the cause of infertility, all patients will use this formula and drug, and promise to treat it all, this approach is obviously unscientific. So, in order to treat male infertility, it is necessary to first identify the cause of the disease before treating it symptomatically.
What is the effect of calcium and zinc on male fertility
1、 The impact of calcium deficiency on male fertility
Male fertility may be related to bone health. Gerard Calsanti, a geneticist at Columbia University in the United States, pointed out that bones can release a substance called osteocalcin, which can increase the production of testosterone, which can control male fertility. When osteocalcin decreases, testosterone also decreases, leading to a decrease in sperm count and affecting male fertility.
In general, young and middle-aged people face heavy life pressure, and the tense pace of life often makes them overlook some physical discomfort. In addition, calcium deficiency in this age group without typical symptoms makes it easy to cover up the condition. When there are frequent symptoms such as fatigue, fatigue, cramps, back pain, allergies, and colds, one should suspect calcium deficiency. Calcium supplementation can be consumed with oysters, seaweed, Chinese cabbage, cauliflower, turnips, turnips, kale, and cabbage. However, calcium supplementation should also be done in moderation, as excessive amounts can be harmful. Therefore, calcium supplementation must be based on monitoring bone calcium for safety, and dietary supplements should be the main approach.
2、 The impact of zinc deficiency on male fertility
Zinc is one of the essential trace elements in the human body, participating in the activity of various enzymes and many physiological processes. Long term zinc deficiency can affect the function of the pituitary gland, reduce the synthesis and secretion of gonadotropins, hinder sperm production, not only reduce the number of sperm, but also lead to excessive dead sperm. The zinc content in normal semen is (1.2-3.8 mmol/l), and if the zinc content is too low, it can cause male infertility.
In addition, zinc deficiency can cause abnormal changes in enzyme activities in prostatic fluid. It affects the liquefaction of semen and the normal movement of sperm, resulting in abnormal acrosome function, decreased ability to swim and penetrate the egg, and ultimately leading to infertility. Usually, one should pay attention to eating more zinc rich foods, such as oysters, pig liver, peanuts, walnuts, etc., to supplement the body's zinc deficiency.
Calcium and zinc deficiency have a significant impact on male fertility. Male infertility caused by calcium and zinc deficiency should not only pay attention to dietary habits, but also seek active treatment from doctors.
3、 Other effects of zinc on the human body
People can easily identify whether they are zinc deficient through changes in their nails. If your nails show white spots and your fingers frequently show barbs, it is likely due to a lack of zinc. Go to the hospital for an authoritative examination as soon as possible.
In addition, if you have recently experienced a significant decline in memory and reflexes, frequent night sweats, and severe visual impairment, then you should also be aware that these are also obvious symptoms of adult zinc deficiency. Another easily overlooked symptom of zinc deficiency is decreased sexual function. When encountering this problem, people often do not think it is caused by zinc deficiency in the body, but mistakenly believe it is caused by high work pressure and physical fatigue, which often misses the best opportunity for treatment.
How do men supplement zinc?
The method is actually very simple, mainly divided into dietary supplement and medicinal supplement. Dietary supplement refers to eating more zinc rich foods such as walnuts, oysters, and oysters. Severe zinc deficiency cannot be supplemented with sufficient zinc through food. It is recommended to take zinc selenium tablets, whole biological preparations, which are non irritating to the gastrointestinal tract and better promote zinc absorption.
