Pass This One Along To The Fellas
Fertility is not just about women. Sperm health is affected by many, many things from what you eat to high body heat. So, if you’re a frequent hot-tubber or sauna-goer, or take nightly hot baths, use laptops on your lap, or keep your phone near your family jewels, we need to have a chat:
🔥Heat — and potentially EMF’s emitted from cell phones — can seriously impact sperm health, sperm shape, and motility. There’s a reason why 🥜 s hang outside of your body — to keep temps down! So if you’re ’thinking about thinking about’ trying, keep the excess heat to a minimum.
💩 - The microbiome affects sperm health, particularly lactobacilli species help those sperm swim. So if your not pooping well, you may not be “shooting” well!
🌿One more thing: a study published in the journal of Epigenetics found that smoking marijuana actually mutates DNA in sperm. So we’d suggest curbing any pot use when you’re in baby-making mode — please don’t shoot the messengers! 💕
