What habits do you recommend for males to boost their sperm quality?

By Javier Domingo del Pozo M.D., Ph.D. (gynecologist).

There is scientific proof that tobacco, alcohol, drugs, obesity and bad nutritional habits affect the quality of sperm, since diet that is poor in antioxidants like vitamins E, A, C, B-12, carnitine, arginine, selenium, etc., has a negative impact on the sperm's DNA. Also, a lack of folates, which are vital for the development of germ cells, is highly damaging.
