Blue zone folks are known for their longevity however this study just showed up showing VEGANS had the lowest sperm quality.
Vegan balls are not working in blue zone areas,we deduced on here that it's mainly the more stress free lifestyles people in the blue zones have as the main contributor to longevity.
Lacto-ovo vegetarians would have been fine if they had a piece of meat or an oyster with zinc in it ocassionally rather than nuts.
Food intake diet and sperm characteristics in a blue zone: a Loma Linda Study. - PubMed - NCBI
Lacto-ovo vegetarians had lower sperm concentration (50.7±7.4M/mL versus non-vegetarians 69.6±3.2M/mL, mean±S.E.M.). Total motility was lower in the lacto-ovo and vegan groups (33.2±3.8% and 51.8±13.4% respectively) versus non-vegetarians (58.2±1.0%). Vegans had lowest hyperactive motility (0.8±0.7% versus lacto-ovo 5.2±1.2 and non-vegetarians 4.8±0.3%). Sperm strict morphologies were similar for the 3 groups. There were no differences in rapid progression and chromatin integrity.
CONCLUSIONS:
The study showed that the vegetables-based food intake decreased sperm quality. In particular, a reduction in sperm quality in male factor patients would be clinically significant and would require review. Furthermore, inadequate sperm hyperactivation in vegans suggested compromised membrane calcium selective channels. However, the study results are cautiously interpreted and more corroborative studies are needed.
