For more and more couples, pregnancy does not happen as easy as desired. According to a study from 2015, 40-50% of unfulfilled pregnancy wishes is due to male fertility problems.
The risk factors include, for example, lifestyle changes, increasing stress and unhealthier eating habits. However, adverse environmental influences may also affect male fertility.
A western meta-analysis of male fertility found an average annual decrease in the mean sperm concentration (million / ml / year) of 1.4% per year, corresponding to an overall decrease of 52.4% between 1973 and 2011. The total number average of sperms fell by 1.6% annually over the same period and thus a total of 59.3%.
L-carnitine is a naturally occurring substance made from the amino acids lysine and methionine. In food, carnitine is mainly found in red meat, whereas a purely vegetarian or vegan diet contains little or no carnitine. Apart from the intake through diet, carnitine can also be produced by our body itself if essential cofactors in the form of various micronutrients are sufficiently available
L-arginine – is a semi-essential amino acid, which means that the body can produce it itself. It is one of the proteinogenic amino acids and is therefore used for protein synthesis and is a component of body proteins (proteins). Arginine has a higher nitrogen content than other proteinogenic amino acids. Arginine is involved in many metabolic processes in the body.
