Are You Killing Your Sperm With Food?

Let’s talk sperm! Turns out your diet may be harming your swimmers.

Experts at Harvard Medical School in the US found men who consume lots of saturated fat and monounsaturated fat may have fewer sperm.

In contrast, those who eat healthier fats — specifically omega 3 and omega 6 — may have healthier sperm that is more active, the study suggests.

Saturated fat is found in processed meats such as bacon, sausages and ham, dairy and butter. Monounsaturated fat is found in items such as olive oil

Basically, the takeaway is this: That bacon-egg-and-cheese you had for breakfast this morning? Consider it birth control!
