Furthermore, we can add to the increase in infertility biological weapons and the disastrous management against Covid-19, which adds to the diseases that industrialized society is producing, where Western food, environmental toxins, GMOs and their pesticides, CAF, vaccines, antibiotics, 5G, are degenerating the human species, reducing quality of life and causing serious chronic and degenerative diseases, including fertility. COVID lockdowns have caused stress and stress causes infertility. In these studies, the impact of quality of life (modifiable lifestyle factors) and psychological stress on male fertility is discussed. In addition, the role that increased scrotal temperature along with inadequate nutrition and physical exercise attitudes on male fertility will be presented.
Evidence shows that modern man's fertility plight is largely due to the way the world has changed with industrialization. Chronic chemical exposure is a major contributing factor to male infertility, as Shanna Swan says. Additionally, a mother's exposure to these chemicals during pregnancy can have a disastrous effect on the fetus, especially when that child is a boy.
Obesity and diabetes, magnetic fields are another major cause of decreased sperm levels in men, as unhealthy diets marked by excessive consumption of refined sugar and refined carbohydrates directly prevent a man's body from producing healthy testosterone levels. Endocrine disruptors are substances that alter the normal biosynthesis of hormones and, therefore, directly affect reproduction. These chemicals range from pesticides, industrial solvents to pharmaceutical agents.
Results from a meta-analysis and other advanced studies support the hypothesis that glyphosate exposure decreased sperm concentration in rodents. Glyphosate (GLY) causes damage to the blood-testis barrier (BTB) and low-quality sperm. GLY-induced BTB injury contributes to decreased sperm quality. Oxidative stress results in disruption of BTB integrity. GLY exposure leads to dysbiosis of the gut commensal microbiota. GLY-induced changes in gut microbiota are negatively correlated with sperm quality. Oxidative stress caused by pesticides and heavy metals causes inflammation and infertility. In a 2021 review, it is reported that some antioxidants, especially selenium and zinc, ω-3 fatty acids, lycopene, CoQ10 and carnitines, ALA, melatonin, vitamin and minerals have been positively related to sperm quality and, therefore, can help improve the quality and fertility of male sperm, in addition to a balanced diet, which takes advantage of the synergy of multiple antioxidants. Ascorbic acid, α-tocopherol, β-carotene, reduced glutathione, and enzymes superoxide dismutase, catalase, and glutathione peroxidase help remove excess ROS. Table 1 of this review details antioxidants related to male fertility by biological nature classified as physiological enzymatic factors, non-enzymatic factors, micronutrients and others.
