Boost Your Sperm Health: Nutrition and Lifestyle Hacks for Male Fertility

Rachel & Elise from Hera Nutrition Season 2 Episode 7

Disclaimers: 

  1. Rachel very briefly discusses her pregnancy loss at the beginning of this episode so if this isn't for you please skip ahead a few minutes
  2. During this episode, we will be referring to males and females however, we acknowledge that not all people with testes identify as male or those with a uterus identify as female
  3. Although we discuss the role that diet plays in sperm health, diet is not the cause or cure for infertility


In this episode, we're diving into an essential but often under-discussed topic: sperm health and its impact on fertility. Did you know male factor infertility accounts for nearly half of all infertility cases? Yet, conversations about it are still not had enough. We're here to change that! 

We’ll cover sperm health terms like sperm count, motility, and DNA fragmentation and explain how small changes to your diet and lifestyle can improve fertility outcomes. 

Whether you're actively trying to conceive or just thinking ahead, you'll get practical, science-backed tips to optimise your sperm health and boost your chances of a healthier pregnancy and future baby. 

We also share an anonymous “Kitchen Confession” which is our segment where we share funny or embarrassing kitchen mishaps. From burnt dinners to culinary disasters, we embrace the imperfect moments and find humour in the kitchen.
