I’m sure all my male friends have heard the phrase “drinking Coke kills sperm” when they drink Coke. This problem has been troubling those men who want to have children, so does Coke kill sperm? What foods can really kill sperm? Pictures
Is it true that “Coke kills sperm”?
In 1985, doctors from the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Harvard Medical School mixed sperm and cola in vitro to test the number of surviving sperm and concluded that cola had a spermicidal effect.
In 1987, Chuanyue Hong and others from Taipei Veterans General Hospital tested whether sperm still had transmigration activity in the presence of cola and concluded that cola did not affect sperm activity. These two studies with opposite conclusions were jointly awarded the 2008 Nobel Prize in Chemistry.
There are no experiments to confirm the claim that “cola kills sperm”, and a large number of experiments have disproved the conclusion. According to Dr. Fai Niu of Renxin Mythical Hands, if we want to verify whether the ingredients in Coke beverages have an effect on sperm.
We need to design a reasonable research method based on the principles of evidence-based medicine to verify whether long-term oral consumption of Coke and other beverages has a negative effect on spermatogenesis and function, while also noting the effects of other factors on spermatogenesis.
What we can say for sure is that cola is in direct contact with sperm and probably kills sperm; while cola is drunk into the stomach and does not come into direct contact with sperm, it goes through digestion and decomposition in the gut and cannot have a spermicidal effect. So people really do not have to worry about drinking cola will kill sperm, unless you drink several bottles of cola every day. And the following foods are absolutely sperm, men must not touch.

Five major sperm-killing foods.
- Fatty meat
Bacon, sausage, lunch meat should not eat more. Saturated fats and cholesterol make the blood vessels narrow, including the blood vessels that carry blood to the sex part, the root of the blood supply is insufficient during sex, difficult to climax, affecting sperm vitality. 2-3 oysters can meet the body’s need for zinc throughout the day, and zinc is an important source of minerals to keep the male reproductive system functioning properly.
- Celery
Men who eat more celery will inhibit the production of testosterone, which has a spermicidal effect and will reduce the number of sperm. It has been reported that foreign doctors have experimented and found that young men with good health and fertility will have significantly less sperm after eating celery for many days, even to the extent that it is difficult to conceive, and this situation will return to normal a few months after stopping the dishes.

- Milk tea
The pearl milk tea currently on the market is mostly made with creamer, color, flavor, and tapioca (referring to the pearls in milk tea), and tap water. The main ingredient of creamer is hydrogenated vegetable oil, which is a trans fatty acid. Trans fatty acids reduce the secretion of male hormones, negatively affect the activity of sperm and interrupt the reaction process of sperm in the body.
- Fried foods
French fries and other fried foods, cookies, and crackers contain trans fats. According to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), trans fatty acids can increase the risk of heart disease. At the same time, trans-fatty acids also reduce testosterone secretion, which negatively affects sperm and interrupts the sperm response in the body.
- Pork loin
Many people like to eat animal offal, especially when eating barbecue, “waist” has become a favorite of many men. But experts say, eat offal body beware of heavy metal “cadmium” damage sperm infertility. Plus if you are a smoker, the chances of infertility are as high as 60%.
