What are the best natural foods or herbs for male reproduction?


My boyfriend and I are trying to have another baby but we have been unsucceful for the last 2 years. I know that folic acid and vitamins B12 are good for female reproductive health, but what are some supplements or foods that he could take to improve our chances?

L- arginine is great for both male and female. It is best known as a sexual inhancer, but if you go to a search engine and put in
L-arginine and fertility or sperm count -you should get information. We used it and have a healthy one year old.

Nothing you eat will make a difference in sperm count. It is the sperm count that will make the difference as long as you are fertile. If he is not wearing boxers he should start. Boxers allow the scrotum to hang lower and cool the testes. This is the function of the scrotum and cooler testes have a higher sperm count. If you continue, I suggest he have his sperm counted.
