Male Fertility and Boron Supplementation

Dietary Factors and Fertility

  • A poor diet can result in reduced fertility, and dietary interventions should focus on lower fats/meats with more fruits and vegetables, as recommended by the American Urological Association [1] [3]
  • Current data on the majority of environmental and dietary risk factors, including boron supplementation, are limited, according to the American Urological Association [2] [3]
  • The focus should be on proven risk factors like smoking, anabolic steroids, and obesity rather than trace mineral concerns, as suggested by the American Urological Association 1
