IN PARTNERSHIP WITH ACNEM, KANEKA SPONSORED TWO INSIGHTFUL EDUCATIONAL SESSIONS ON MALE AND FEMALE FERTILITY
Recent Article
Kaneka Ubiquinol is a proud sponsor of the ACNEM Women’s Health Training Forum, launched on 19th of November 2022, in live and online. Leading experts in Fertility Health presented evidence-based strategies and interventions that have been shown to assist in the management of symptoms associated with complex women’s health conditions with a focus on fertility, outlining comprehensive management plans based on diet, nutrition, lifestyle, and endocrine regulation.
Kaneka sponsored two educational sessions, one on female fertility and one on male fertility, with leading fertility clinician, naturopath and educator, Leah Hechtman. The sessions highlighted the importance of effective mitochondrial function on sperm health.
Male fertility is largely affected by lifestyle choices and so it comes as no surprise that harsh lifestyle choices may impact one’s fertility journey. When men are exposed to environmental toxins and stress, it can have a negative impact on the sperm. Excessive consumption of alcohol, smoking, sleep deprivation, all play a role in the quality of the sperm, including its morphology (shape), count and motility (movement).
Hechtman highlighted the growing body of evidence supporting the efficacy of natural antioxidants, including ubiquinol, to mitigate the oxidative stress on sperm mitochondria and how this may assist, either to conceive naturally or to improve the outcome of assisted technologies such as IVF, for the countless couples struggling with fertility issues.
“We need a greater understanding of the role of male factor with fertility. We often stress the body block of a female when discussing fertility, and while men can continue to produce sperm throughout their adult lifetime, as the quality of the sperm declines due to environmental factors and we experience depletion of antioxidants like ubiquinol, couples may find themselves struggling to conceive.”
“In a time where oxidative stress is believed to be one of the primary drivers of infertility for both men and women, it is imperative that all people of reproductive age seek professional recommendations to ensure that they address factors that may be impacting their chance of starting a family, and how to mitigate through dietary and lifestyle measures,” adds Hechtman.
Hechtman highlighted the connection between mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress and resulting damage within the body, importantly to sperm health.
