AlphaSperm combines the best science and the highest-quality ingredients to promote good sperm health. It also includes powerful antioxidants that protect the delicate DNA cargo from damage during the sperm’s journey to the egg.
Considered a major antioxidant, vitamin E is found in 10-fold higher concentration in semen than in blood. It is a work-horse for controlling co-called “oxidative stress” in sperm.
This mineral is critical for the development of sperm motility and is a major determinant of normal sperm shape or morphology. It is also a nonenzymatic antioxidant. Dr Turek published the only randomized, controlled trial in humans that examined the effect of high and low selenium levels on sperm motility. The incorporation of selenium in Alpha Sperm is based on this research.
An Andean plant in the mustard family, it was first isolated and cultivated in Peru over 2000 years ago. Maca root has been ascribed many medicinal properties, including improving sexual desire and erectile function in men.
Zinc represents one of the most essential factors in sperm quality and male fertility. Its benefits include antioxidant qualities, helping to balance hormones, and maintaining the health of reproductive organs. An essential mineral, it supports over 100 enzymes and coenzymes
involved in DNA and protein synthesis.
This vital compound exists in all tissues in the body, but is found in particularly high amounts in sperm mitochondria and plays a key role in energy production and sperm motility. It is also a powerful non-enzymatic antioxidant.
Derived mainly from tomatoes, and essential for photosynthesis in many plants, lycopene is an extremely powerful oxidant-quencher that is found in high concentrations in the testicle and in the semen. Lower lycopene levels in semen have been shown to correlate with male infertility.
Considered the major "antioxidant group," these three vitamins are found in 10-fold higher doses in semen than blood. They are work-horses in controlling what’s called “oxidative stress” in sperm. Sperm are unique in that they are a small, high energy cell that move rapidly, which is very unique in the body. Due to their compact design, the sperm engines (mitochondria) are located right next to the passenger compartment, the delicate DNA payload. The free radicals that are generated from the energy of sperm movement are sources of “oxidative stress” and can easily damage the DNA payload, and result in infertility. Antioxidants vitamins A, C and E are great at absorbing the radical oxygen species and free radicals that are generated in sperm and that have been implicated to underlie as much as 25% of male infertility.
Often termed vitamin B8, it also goes by the name of myo-inositol or myo inositol, this naturally occurring substance is present at high concentrations within the testicular tubules and is involved with sperm maturation, especially chromatin compaction, mitochondrial function and energy metabolism. It also assists with sperm migration from the epididymis.
This essential amino acid is critical for nitric oxide synthesis in sperm and plays an important role in sperm metabolism, maturation and sperm DNA-packaging quality. It also contributes to the antioxidant activity in semen.
This water-soluble antioxidant is highly concentrated in sperm and in the epididymis. It is involved with sperm metabolism as a source of bioenergetic “fuel’ for sperm motility, especially after sperm leave the testicle and enter the epididymis for further maturation.
Most commercial nutritional supplements contain synthetic vitamins and highly processed ingredients and fillers, which are cheaper and easier to produce than natural derivatives. For example, some makers use vitamin A that has been synthesized from acetone. It has taken eight years of research to pack sufficient quantities of all-natural antioxidants, micronutrients, minerals, and herbals into tablet form. This is why you may notice AlphaSperm tablets look slightly larger than a typical vitamin supplement. The ingredients are minimally processed and come from plants and other natural sources—not a chemical plant.
Ultra High Absorption
Your body cannot absorb and use many of the natural vitamins, minerals and macronutrients in AlphaSperm without help. Most nutritional supplements include carriers, also called excipients, to make their active ingredients available for use by your body (bioavailability). However, all excipients are not created equal. An oncologist (cancer doctor) and a nutritionist collaborated to develop the excipients in AlphaSperm. This is because cancer patients have a notoriously difficult time absorbing nutrients. As result, AlphaSperm provides ultra-high absorption for maximum bioavailability of its active ingredients.
