Seventy two days before you attempt to conceive, you need to ensure that both partners are in optimal health. This will ensure that the sperm (which has a 72 day life cycle) fertilising the ovum will be a healthy, viable specimen for making the best babies possible.

Although all the vitamins and minerals are important and eating a natural, varied, whole food diet will be essential to your health, there a few stand out nutrients for male reproductive health.

The Zinc Link with Male Fertility

Zinc is an extremely common deficiency in the Western world. NZ soils are low in zinc, added to the fact that it is a mineral which is poorly absorbed it is not surprising that there is a general deficiency of zinc in the NZ population. Zinc has been shown in clinical studies to increase sperm count and is vital for the development and functioning of the hormonal and reproductive systems of both sexes. It it is also a key player in immune function and it’s needed to keep mother and baby protected. A zinc deficiency during pregnancy may worsen the baby blues and contribute to problems with breastfeeding. Radiance Zinc Complex caters for your needs with a convenient, highly bioavailable form of zinc monomethionine, alongside a blend of co-factors to enhance absorption, retention and activity for support of general, immune and reproductive health.

Radiance® Zinc Complex also provides Vitamin C, Vitamin B6, Magnesium and Vitamin A (as betacarotene) for optimal retention and activity. An easy indicator of zinc deficiency is the appearance of white spots on the fingernails, taste and smell perception may also be diminished. A zinc taste/talley test (available at some health stores, pharmacies and many natural health practitioners) will help further confirm the need for supplementation.
