The quality of sperm determines the quality of children. The health of men's sperm not only affects the next generation, but also the health of semen has an impact on women's bodies. Healthy semen in the female vagina is beneficial for women. What drinks do men drink that can harm their sperm? These drinks must be consumed sparingly! What are the drinks that men can drink?
1. Beer
Alcohol is always regarded as a friend of men, but it is also the most harmful to men. Not only beer, but any alcoholic beverage (ethanol) has a spermicidal effect.
The alcohol contained in alcohol can cause an increase in catecholamines in the blood. The physiological function of catecholamines is to constrict blood vessels. High concentrations of catecholamines can affect testicular blood flow, cause premature shedding of immature sperm, hinder sperm maturation in the epididymis, and also cause atrophy of spermatogenic epithelial cells. If the alcohol concentration in the body exceeds 80 milligrams per liter, the damage to sperm will be obvious. Even if you drink low-alcohol alcohol alcohol, if you drink too much, it can still pose a risk if it accumulates in your body.
During the fermentation of hops in beer, an estrogenic effect is produced, which inhibits sperm motility and leads to low fertility in men. Beer also contains many purine substances, which, in conjunction with alcohol, cause an increase in blood uric acid. Long term consumption of beer in large quantities can cause uric acid deposition, leading to renal tubular obstruction and kidney failure.
2. Poor quality tea
Tea polyphenols in tea have antioxidant effect, which is conducive to cardiovascular health, as well as the health of germ cell. However, drinking tea has high hygiene requirements for tea leaves. The concentration of toxic heavy metals such as lead, cadmium, and mercury in inferior tea leaves is high, and heavy metals are toxic, which is detrimental to sperm production and can even lead to sperm abnormalities. So, when buying tea, it is important to choose reputable brands and producing areas with low environmental pollution.
3. Milk tea
Pearl milk tea contains a large amount of trans fatty acids, which can reduce the secretion of male hormones (testosterone), have a negative impact on sperm activity, and interrupt the reaction process of sperm in the body. Therefore, it is recommended to drink less. If you really enjoy drinking milk tea, you can use milk, condensed milk, or black tea to make your own milk tea.
4. Coffee
Caffeine in coffee can stimulate the sympathetic nervous system in the human body, causing it to be in a state of increased breathing, increased blood flow, and vasoconstriction, thus feeling refreshed. The neurovascular reflexes such as glandular secretion and erection are innervated by the parasympathetic nerves. When the sympathetic nervous system is excited, the parasympathetic nervous system is in a relatively suppressed state, leading to decreased libido. So, when men drink a few more cups of coffee to brew romance, their sexual drive will also be greatly reduced.
5. Sweet drinks
Studies have found that long-term consumption of sugary drinks will lead to the weakening of sperm motility. Interestingly, this association is more pronounced in lean men. Scientists say that sugary beverages increase the risk of developing insulin resistance, leading to increased oxidative stress and ultimately endangering sperm. Fresh juice or green tea are the best substitutes.
6. Whole milk
A study shows that adult men who consume whole milk products such as cheese or milk every day have a decrease in the number of viable sperm. Scientists suggest that adolescent men should drink whole milk, but adult men may experience sperm problems when consuming whole milk. Just switch to low-fat milk.
7. Cola
Most carbonated beverages such as cola contain ingredients such as carbonation, citric acid, and lactic acid, which can leave the body fluids in an acidic state, while the body fluids are in an alkaline state. Therefore, carbonated beverages are prone to interfere with the alkaline state in male semen, affecting the survival rate of sperm. The combined effects of acidic substances, additives, preservatives, and caffeine in carbonated beverages can to some extent reduce sexual ability, limit sperm vitality, and affect male fertility.
What drinks are good for men?
1. Plain water
Cultivating the habit of drinking more water can dilute the urine, make the urine discharge quickly, prevent urinary system stones, reduce the sodium load of the kidney, and protect the kidney.
2. Freshly squeezed fruit juice
Fresh fruits not only contain abundant moisture, but are also the main source of B vitamins and vitamin C. The phytochemistry factors contained in fruits, such as lycopene, anthocyanin, carotene, are beneficial to health. What we need to remind you is that some fresh juices on the market are often added with pigment, essence and sugar, and it is safest and most reassuring to squeeze them at home.
For the sake of the health of the next generation, as well as the health of the target audience, and for the sake of one's own health, do not drink spermicide drinks. Men can drink plain water, which is the healthiest. You can also drink fresh juice. Try to drink as little as possible, such as cola, milk tea, coffee, etc., especially when planning to have a baby.
