Eating half a serving per day of soy-based foods could significantly lower a man’s sperm count, Harvard researchers reported Wednesday in the journal Human Reproduction.
The study is the largest in humans to look at the relationship between semen quality and a plant form of the female sex hormone estrogen known as phytoestrogen, which is plentiful in soy-rich foods.
