“…As a naturally rich source of vitamins, minerals, and polyphenols, the DASH diet may be perceived as antioxidative and anti-inflammatory. The antioxidants in male reproductive health may be positively associated with semen parameters [31][32][33], fertilization rate [34], decreasing oxidative damage to spermatozoa [35,36], DNA maintenance, transfer RNA, protein synthesis [37], and the reduction of the negative effects of inflammation [36,38]. Moreover, the DASH diet recommends a reduction in sweets, meat, eggs, and fat consumption that, due to the content of sugars, saturated/trans fatty acids, and sodium, may adversely affect sperm count [28], concentration [39,40], sperm motility [29,40,41], and morphology [40,41].…”

“…representing between 1.7-and 3.7-fold increase [107]. While these results seem to be promising, the authors of that study warned about the increase in miscarriage rates (from 2% to 13%) following antioxidant supplementation.…”

“…Since not only does an increase in oxidative stress reduce sperm quality but also the likelihood of achieving pregnancy (either natural or through ART), the use of exogenous antioxidants has been proposed to balance the ROS:antioxidant ratio and increase the sperm quality. In the literature, several non-enzymatic antioxidants, such as arginine, carnitine, carotenoids, coenzyme Q10, cysteine, reduced glutathione, micronutrients like selenium or zinc, vitamin E, vitamin C, myo-inositol, or resveratrol, have been reported to be utilized to treat different diseases [107]. In the case of ART, exogenous antioxidants have been tested for decades, and several works point out to a positive contribution of these supplements on sperm count, motility, and morphology [108][109][110].…”
