Selenium

Learning conducted at the University of Padua in Italy and published in the Journal Science states that a diet low in selenium could be a root of male infertility. Selenium acts to help put off oxidation of the sperm cell, thus aiding in maintaining sperm cell integrity. A Good source of selenium can be found in red meat, liver and seafood. The recommended dietary allowance (RDA) for selenium is 70 micrograms/day meant for an adult male.
