The experiment lacks common sense and "drinking Coke kills sperm" is not credible

Coke is a favorite drink of many young men. However, the recent rumor that "Coke kills sperm" has troubled many young people who want to be fathers. Can Coke, a beverage we drink every day, kill sperm? Is it true or false? Does drinking Coke really kill sperm?

Wrong conclusions from unreliable experiments

In fact, the rumor that drinking cola kills sperm originated from an experiment in the United States in 1985. At that time, the experimenters added frozen sperm to three test tubes filled with soda and found that the number of sperm decreased accordingly. Therefore, the conclusion is that soda can affect sperm motility to a certain extent.

In fact, if you pay a little attention, you will find that soda first enters the mouth, then enters the stomach through the esophagus, the stomach digests and absorbs, and then the blood transfers the nutrients to various parts of the body, so soda will not kill sperm in the human body. In addition, sperm has a lifespan, and its lifespan is affected by the environment. Normal sperm can survive for 2 to 8 days in the cervix, 2 to 2.5 days in the uterus and fallopian tubes, and only half a day in the vagina. Once sperm leaves the human body and is placed in water or air, its lifespan is no more than half an hour. In short, Coke will not kill sperm because soda is digested and absorbed through the digestive tract and has no direct relationship with the reproductive system. Men who want to be fathers don't have to worry that moderate consumption of soda will affect sperm health.

Sperm health taboos

(1) Dietary picky eating

Some men have the habit of being picky eaters, which will lead to uneven nutritional intake, causing sperm weakness, exhaustion, and even death. Therefore, it is recommended that men should maintain good eating habits to ensure balanced nutrition in the body, which is beneficial to sperm health.

(II) Use drugs with caution

Some sedatives, sleeping pills, anti-cancer drugs, etc. taken by men can harm the health of sperm. Therefore, men should try to avoid long-term, unnecessary, and excessive exposure to such drugs.

3. Environmental pollution

Severely polluted environments where men live can also affect the health of their sperm. Special attention should be paid to the decoration pollution of the housing environment. It is best to wait for a while before moving in after the decoration is completed.

(IV) Smoking and drinking

Smoking and drinking are hobbies of many men. The nicotine in alcohol and cigarettes can directly damage sperm and affect sperm vitality, so men should try to stay away from smoking and drinking.

(V) Pants selection

Some men like to wear tight, airtight underwear and jeans. These habits will affect the health of sperm, so men who are not yet fathers should avoid wearing pants that are too tight.
