Men can improve their fertility and overall health by incorporating certain fruits into their diet. According to Dr. Doan Vinh Binh from the Medical Information Center at Tam Anh General Hospital in Ho Chi Minh City, bananas, citrus fruits, avocados, watermelon, and apples are all beneficial for men’s fertility as they contain vitamins, magnesium, lycopene, and antioxidants that can help increase sperm quantity and quality.
Bananas are rich in vitamins B1, C, and magnesium, which can increase mobility and support sperm production. They also contain an enzyme called bromelain that promotes the increase of sperm quantity and mobility. Citrus fruits contain antioxidants that protect sperm from damage caused by free radicals and oxidative stress. Vitamin C found in these fruits helps improve endurance, making conception easier.
Avocados provide vitamin E, counteracting the effects of reactive oxygen species and improving sperm quality. Folate in avocados supports spermatogenesis and sperm cell development, necessary for DNA replication and improving sperm mobility, quantity, and quality. Apples are rich in fiber and antioxidants, particularly flavonoid compounds that can increase sperm count and protect sperm from oxidative damage.
