With the increasing incidence of infertility in the world, the impact of environmental factors, lifestyles and nutrients on reproductive health has gradually attracted attention. Many studies have shown that there is a significant correlation between the intake of nutrients and semen quality. A variety of nutrients, including micronutrients, vitamins, amino acids and derivatives, plant-derived extracts, melatonin, have effects in male spermatogenesis and semen parameters, and the types and content of nutrients in the body are also significantly related to male semen quality.
