Vitamin D Make More Sperm shot Firmness

A new finding says that the sperm can make the most rapid movement in men who had vitamin D levels are high. Research conducted on 300 healthy men was recently published in the journal Human Reproduction.

Of course, this temua give new hope to those who have infertility problems.

The researchers found that the sperm of men who are deficient in vitamin D (less than 25 nanomoles per liter of blood) had a sperm motility less than that has more than 75 nanomoles of vitamin D per liter of blood, said researcher Martin Blomberg Jensen from the Department of Growth and Reproduction at Home Copenhagen University Hospital in Denmark.

The researchers also found that these benefits can be obtained by exposing sperm to the activated vitamin D, "activated vitamin D can induce sperm motility," said Jensen. The sun usually plays a role in activate vitamin D in our skin.

This study shows that vitamin D is needed to overcome reproductive problems in men. But Jensen adds that more research is needed before vitamins can be prescribed to improve the quality of sperm.

"By taking supplements of vitamin D, you can increase the number of active vitamins," said Jensen, "but this has not been seen from the testes are tested."

However, the level of sperm does not guarantee the speed will increase male fertility. Because the fertility of a man "depending on the cause of the low fertility rate itself as motility, or morphology of sperm," said Jensen.

Sperm velocity "is a very important parameter, and the proportion of fast-moving sperm (motility) was associated with and become preditor to the achievement of pregnancy."

However, there is no scientific method that is suitable for improving sperm quality, although previous studies have demonstrated the relationship between sperm velocity in the presence of antioxidants, zinc and vitamins, said Jensen.

For example, research presented in 2003 at a meeting of the American Society for Reproductive Medicine suggests that the speed of sperm in men who drank coffee were higher than those who are not coffee because there are elements of antioxidants.
