'Notes affect quality sperm'

- By eating two hands of nuts a day, men can significantly improve the quality of their semen. This is shown by research by the Universitat Rovira i Virgili in Spain.

Two groups of men were tested. One half of men ate sixty grams of nuts in addition to their normal diet, the other half did not. After fourteen weeks the quality of the semen of the men was compared.

Sperm count was increased by 14 percent in the nut eaters. The sperm was also more mobile and faster. According to fellow researcher Nicholas Macklon, the figures are significant. 'There is a good chance that they make a positive contribution to the fertility of a man. '

According to Macklon, however, other factors also affect the quality of the sperm. The influence of the notes therefore does not seem to be large.

This week, the results of the research will be published in American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. These results have already been presented at a conference in Barcelona.
