Men can reproduce the end of life?

The world's oldest father recently welcomed the birth of his second son (fertilized by natural methods) at the age of 96. Many people wonder if this Indian grandfather wants to break the record. Once again about the age of my father, is the law of natural biology allowed?

Although sperm production usually continues until a man dies, it is a mistake to assume that the 'biological clock' only affects women.

For a long time, the scientific community mainly focused on the effects of aging on women's fertility, rather than in men. However, the results of the few studies directed at the eyebrows found, both the amount and quality of semen generally decreased as the man became older.

According to a study published in the American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology in 2004, among couples using in vitro fertilization (IVF) chosen to follow, the man kept increasing by 1 year. making pregnant wife down to 11%.

Another study also found that, like women, the eyebrow will face an increased risk of becoming the father of children with genetic defects when they get older.

Random mutations in men's sperms increase over time. And the genetic transmission of more mutations to children could increase the incidence of autism, schizophrenia and other diseases of the child, according to a study published recently in the journal Nature.

However, no one resembles anyone, and it seems that humans can resist the destruction of sperm quality. Ramajit Raghav, who holds the record for the oldest father (96), revealed a diet rich in vegetables and nuts. He also claimed that he could do 'sex' three times a night. Both of these things can positively impact Mr. Raghav's sperm and are the secret to helping this nearly 100-year-old man be as strong as a young man.

New research by Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory of the US Department of Energy also shows that diets contain high levels of vitamin C, antioxidants, vitamin E, zinc and folic acid (except vitamin C, all The rest are found in nuts, which can prevent DNA damage affecting male sperm.

In addition, a study published by Australian scientists at the 2009 annual conference of the Pregnancy and Childbirth Association in Amsterdam found that daily ejaculation will help reduce DNA damage in sperm of the sperm. most men, although increasing DNA damage in a few remaining.
