Everyday Pesticide Exposure Linked to Reduced Sperm Quality in Healthy Men
12 Nov 2025
Everyday exposure to pesticides, even from conventionally grown fruits and vegetables, disrupts sperm function and reduces fertility in otherwise healthy men Researchers found that higher levels of pesticide residues in urine were linked to slower, less motile sperm, showing that even non-occupational exposure harms reproductive health Organophosphate pesticides damage sperm by disrupting calcium balance, impairing mitochondrial energy production, and oxidizing cell membranes, which reduces both movement and viability Global data confirm these effects, revealing consistent patterns of reduced sperm motility, concentration, and normal shape across men from multiple countries, even when hormone levels remain normal Reducing exposure through organic foods, filtered water, regular exercise, and sauna use helps your body eliminate stored toxins, restore mitochondrial energy, and rebuild sperm health within a few months
