Soy-Sperm Connection

Calling all men who want to become fathers! Soy products may reduce a man’s sperm count. Based on a recent study, men who consume soy products may have lower sperm counts than those who don’t. The study was based on a small group of men who visited the Massachusetts General Hospital Fertility Center from 2000 to 2006.

Even though the study found that some of the men who ate soy products on a regular basis had lower sperm counts, the researchers conducting the study are not saying that soy products were the cause of the lower sperm concentrations. The men who had soy products in their diets recorded lower sperm counts than those that didn’t, but their counts were still within the normal range.

Something to consider if you are male and are thinking of planting your seed anytime soon.

WAIT! The Chinese eat a lot of soy products, from tofu to sauce, and yet there is a billion or so Chinese. After carefully consideration—–NEVER MIND!
