Infertility has become a global crisis, with 1 in 6 people experiencing difficulty conceiving. While female infertility receives more attention, male infertility is also being closely examined. Research shows that male infertility accounts for 30% of infertility cases, with environmental factors, particularly exposure to chemicals like glyphosate, playing a significant role.
A recent study revealed that more than half of sperm samples contain glyphosate, a manmade chemical linked to male infertility. Glyphosate, widely used in herbicides like Monsanto’s Roundup, has been found to have negative effects on DNA and oxidative stress in men.
Glyphosate, introduced by Monsanto in 1974, is now used in 60% of herbicide formulations worldwide. Despite claims of being environmentally friendly, glyphosate has been linked to health issues such as kidney damage, liver disease, and cancer.
Animal studies have also shown a connection between glyphosate and infertility, with the chemical disrupting hormone receptors and affecting sperm production in males. Exposure to glyphosate has been found to induce cell death in testicles and lead to lower sperm counts and abnormal sperm cells in animals.
Other factors contributing to infertility include a decline in sperm counts worldwide, with male populations in developed nations experiencing significant decreases. The continued use of toxic chemicals like glyphosate poses a threat to reproductive health, highlighting the urgent need for further research and regulation. In these countries, men experienced a 52.4% decrease in sperm concentration and a 59.3% decrease in total sperm count. The Lancet released a report in March 2024 predicting that by 2100, 97% of countries will struggle to sustain their populations due to global infertility. Glyphosate, along with other toxic chemicals like PFAS, is contributing to this decline in reproduction. Strategies to address infertility include minimizing exposure to toxic chemicals, avoiding unfiltered tap water, eating an optimal fertility diet, and avoiding smoking and alcohol.
In addition to toxic chemicals, electromagnetic fields (EMFs) from wireless technologies like cellphones and Wi-Fi may also be contributing to infertility. Studies have shown that excessive cell phone use can lower sperm concentrations and counts. EMFs can affect sperm motility and damage mitochondrial DNA. To reduce risk, it is recommended to minimize EMF exposure by avoiding carrying cell phones on the body, turning off Wi-Fi at night, and creating an EMF-free bedroom.
It is important to check glyphosate levels, especially for those planning to start a family. Buying organic food, particularly animal products, can help reduce exposure to glyphosate. Investing in a water filtration system and avoiding glyphosate-based products can also lower exposure. Testing glyphosate levels can help identify contamination in the diet. Consuming organic, unpasteurized apple cider vinegar can help detox glyphosate from the body. Tenemos ensalada para la cena y creo que puede ayudarte a descomponer lo que sea que haya en tu boca, porque trabajará directamente convirtiendo el glifosato en fósforo útil. Lo elimina por completo.
El Dr. Dietrich Klinghardt, especialista en toxicidad por metales y su conexión con infecciones crónicas, recomienda tomar 1 cucharadita o 4 gramos de polvo de glicina dos veces al día durante varias semanas. Esto también ayuda a eliminar el glifosato de tu sistema. Después de unas semanas, puedes reducir la dosis a un cuarto de cucharadita (1 gramo) dos veces al día.
También puedes tomar colágeno orgánico de pasto alimentado, ya que es naturalmente rico en glicina. El caldo de huesos orgánico es una gran fuente de colágeno rico en glicina también. Para obtener más información útil sobre el caldo de huesos, te recomiendo leer mi artículo “La Guía Definitiva del Caldo de Huesos: El Suplemento de Colágeno de la Naturaleza”.
