Zinc

Zinc is essential for testosterone production, sperm count, and sperm motility. Even mild deficiency can reduce male fertility.

Does it really work?

Yes. Research consistently shows zinc improves sperm quality and testosterone balance in men with low levels. Supplementation is particularly effective when deficiency is present.

Can I get enough in real food?

Yes. Oysters, red meat, poultry, beans, nuts, and seeds are good sources. However, absorption can be lower from plant-based sources.

Do I need a supplement for everyday health?

For men trying to conceive, yes. Zinc is one of the most important minerals for sperm health, and supplementation is a safe way to ensure adequate levels.
