Garlic is a powerful antioxidant food since it is rich in vitamins A, B, and C, selenium, phosphorus, silicon, sulfur, zinc, copper, potassium, etc. Therefore, it does contribute to reducing oxidative stress in the spermatozoa and to improving both their mobility and their concentration and morphology.

Also, garlic has antibiotic, anti-cancer, and skin-regenerative properties.
