Crack on
Start your day with an egg to end it on a high. Eggs’ B vits are essential for sex drive and erectile strength but stress can deplete your levels, says Dr Paul Lachance. Scramble before you hit the office.
Just soy no
Soy milk isn’t better than cow juice, despite what the hipsters say. A Harvard study found the sperm counts of men using soy were 41m/ml lower than normal. That’s a lot of little yous to lose over your cereal.
A glass act
Throw out your Tupperware. A Reproductive Toxicology study found exposure to BPA in plastic can cut your sperm concentration by 23%. Nuke lunches in glassware. And limit Chinese takeaways too.
Lift on empty
Take a pitstop before you hit the squat rack. Peeing before you push stops urine being forced into your testicles, which the Uro Center of New York says causes epididymitis with painful swelling. Not the kind of growth you were after.
