Synopsis
Source of validity: Scientific
Rating (out of 5): 4
Minerals play a crucial role in supporting the reproductive system, and there is significant scientific evidence to justify their use in this context. Specific minerals such as zinc, selenium, magnesium, and iron have been extensively studied for their roles in reproductive health. For example, zinc is essential for normal sperm production and testosterone metabolism in males, while in females, it is important for ovulation and overall reproductive health. Selenium is involved in antioxidant protection of reproductive tissues and is linked to improved sperm motility and reduced risk of miscarriage. Iron deficiency is a well-known cause of infertility and menstrual irregularities in women, and adequate iron status is critical for healthy pregnancy outcomes. Magnesium supports hormone regulation, uterine health, and may help alleviate symptoms of premenstrual syndrome (PMS). Clinical trials and observational studies have demonstrated that deficiencies in these minerals are associated with impaired fertility, pregnancy complications, and adverse reproductive outcomes. Supplementation or dietary adequacy of these minerals is often recommended by healthcare professionals for individuals seeking to optimize reproductive health. While the term "mineral (unspecified)" is broad, the scientific consensus strongly supports the use of specific essential minerals for maintaining and supporting the reproductive system.
