Synopsis

Source of validity: Scientific
Rating (out of 5): 3

Vitamins play a crucial role in supporting the male reproductive system, with several having scientifically validated functions. Most notably, vitamins such as vitamin C, vitamin E, vitamin D, and certain B vitamins have been studied in relation to male fertility and reproductive health. For example, vitamin C is an antioxidant that helps protect sperm from oxidative stress, which can improve sperm quality and motility. Vitamin E, another antioxidant, has also been shown in some studies to enhance sperm function. Vitamin D deficiency has been linked to reduced testosterone levels and impaired sperm production, and supplementation may benefit men with low levels. B vitamins, particularly folate (B9), are important for DNA synthesis and healthy sperm development. While not all studies reach the same conclusions, and the benefits are often more pronounced in men with existing deficiencies or suboptimal fertility, there is a reasonable amount of scientific evidence supporting the use of certain vitamins for male reproductive health. However, the evidence is not uniformly strong for all vitamins or in all populations, so the overall rating is moderate. It is important to note that supplementation should be tailored to individual needs and undertaken in consultation with a healthcare provider, as excessive intake of some vitamins can have adverse effects.
