      Experts warn: Candlelight dinners may be damaging male fertility

      According to statistics, about 15% of married couples are infertile, of which the male factor accounts for about 49%. In the past 10 years, reproductive scientists at home and abroad have been committed to finding the cause of male infertility. Research data in recent years have shown that certain lifestyle trends are to blame.

      Candlelight dinner: Candles, especially scented candles, will release harmful particles such as lead and mercury, which will hinder the testicles from synthesizing male hormones and sperm

      Fast food: Fast food contains a lot of soy products. Long-term intake of large amounts will show some estrogen effects, thus inducing male reproductive problems.

      Don’t like to drink water: Although scientists have not yet fully understood how lack of water specifically affects male reproduction healthy , but facts show that men who love drinking water have stronger reproductive capabilities.

      Overeating: Scientists in Atlanta, USA, found that when men overeat, the quality of their sperm is damaged.

      like to drink coffee : Coffee can also damage male sperm and make it inactive. Therefore, scientists recommend that men drink coffee in moderation.

      Like to eat seafood: The ocean is polluted by industry, so seafood contains too much mercury, a chemical that is harmful to reproduction.

      Smoking and drinking: Studies show that men who smoke regularly are three times more likely to be infertile than men who never smoke.; Patients with chronic alcoholism may experience testicular atrophy, resulting in decreased semen quality.
