Although no dietary pattern has been found to date that has been confirmed to improve sperm parameters and successful conception rates, the Mediterranean diet is suggested as the most appropriate diet for the health of the expectant father. The latter includes frequent consumption of:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">Fruits and vegetables: rich in antioxidants that help maintain the redox balance<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">Seafood: a source of polyunsaturated fatty acids that act as antioxidants.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">Poultry: main source of protein.

More specifically, reckless alcohol consumption has been linked to increased oxidative stress, high DNA fragmentation and disruption of reproductive hormones.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">Finally, exercise and quality sleep are two important components of everyday life that can contribute to a man's health and, by extension, to fertility, for which more research is needed at a scientific level.<\/span><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u03a4\u03b7 \u03c3\u03cd\u03b3\u03c7\u03c1\u03bf\u03bd\u03b7 \u03b5\u03c0\u03bf\u03c7\u03ae \u03b7 \u03c7\u03b1\u03bc\u03b7\u03bb\u03ae\u03c2 \u03c0\u03b5\u03c1\u03b9\u03b5\u03ba\u03c4\u03b9\u03ba\u03cc\u03c4\u03b7\u03c4\u03b1\u03c2 \u03c3\u03b5 \u03b8\u03c1\u03b5\u03c0\u03c4\u03b9\u03ba\u03ac \u03b4\u03af\u03b1\u03b9\u03c4\u03b1, \u03c4\u03b1 \u03c5\u03c8\u03b7\u03bb\u03ac \u03c0\u03bf\u03c3\u03bf\u03c3\u03c4\u03ac \u03c0\u03b1\u03c7\u03c5\u03c3\u03b1\u03c1\u03ba\u03af\u03b1\u03c2 \u03ba\u03b1\u03b9 \u03bf \u03ba\u03b1\u03b8\u03b9\u03c3\u03c4\u03b9\u03ba\u03cc\u03c2 \u03c4\u03c1\u03cc\u03c0\u03bf\u03c2 \u03b6\u03c9\u03ae\u03c2 \u03ad\u03c7\u03bf\u03c5\u03bd \u03c3\u03c5\u03bc\u03b2\u03ac\u03bb\u03bb\u03b5\u03b9 \u03c3\u03c4\u03b7\u03bd \u03c5\u03c0\u03bf\u03b2\u03ac\u03b8\u03bc\u03b9\u03c3\u03b7 \u03c4\u03b7\u03c2 \u03c0\u03bf\u03b9\u03cc\u03c4\u03b7\u03c4\u03b1\u03c2 \u03c4\u03bf\u03c5 \u03c3\u03c0\u03ad\u03c1\u03bc\u03b1\u03c4\u03bf\u03c2. \u039f\u03bb\u03bf\u03ad\u03bd\u03b1 \u03ba\u03b1\u03b9 \u03c0\u03b5\u03c1\u03b9\u03c3\u03c3\u03cc\u03c4\u03b5\u03c1\u03b5\u03c2 \u03bc\u03b5\u03bb\u03ad\u03c4\u03b5\u03c2 \u03b1\u03c0\u03bf\u03b4\u03b5\u03b9\u03ba\u03bd\u03cd\u03bf\u03c5\u03bd \u03cc\u03c4\u03b9 \u03bf\u03b9 \u03b4\u03b9\u03b1\u03c4\u03c1\u03bf\u03c6\u03b9\u03ba\u03ad\u03c2 \u03c3\u03c5\u03bd\u03ae\u03b8\u03b5\u03b9\u03b5\u03c2 \u03c4\u03bf\u03c5 \u03ac\u03bd\u03b4\u03c1\u03b1 \u03b5\u03c0\u03b7\u03c1\u03b5\u03ac\u03b6\u03bf\u03c5\u03bd \u03ac\u03bc\u03b5\u03c3\u03b1 \u03c4\u03b7 \u03b3\u03bf\u03bd\u03b9\u03bc\u03bf\u03c0\u03bf\u03b9\u03b7\u03c4\u03b9\u03ba\u03ae \u03b9\u03ba\u03b1\u03bd\u03cc\u03c4\u03b7\u03c4\u03b1. \u03a0\u03b1\u03c1\u03cc\u03bb\u03bf \u03c0\u03bf\u03c5 \u03b4\u03b5\u03bd \u03ad\u03c7\u03b5\u03b9 \u03b2\u03c1\u03b5\u03b8\u03b5\u03af \u03bc\u03ad\u03c7\u03c1\u03b9 \u03c3\u03ae\u03bc\u03b5\u03c1\u03b1 \u03ad\u03bd\u03b1 \u03c0\u03c1\u03cc\u03c4\u03c5\u03c0\u03bf \u03b4\u03b9\u03b1\u03c4\u03c1\u03bf\u03c6\u03ae\u03c2 \u03c0\u03bf\u03c5 \u03b5\u03c0\u03b9\u03b2\u03b5\u03b2\u03b1\u03b9\u03c9\u03bc\u03ad\u03bd\u03b1 \u03b2\u03b5\u03bb\u03c4\u03b9\u03ce\u03bd\u03b5\u03b9 [&hellip;]<\/p>","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":2290,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_coblocks_attr":"","_coblocks_dimensions":"","_coblocks_responsive_height":"","_coblocks_accordion_ie_support":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2291","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-ta-nea-mas"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/lymberopoulos-lab.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2291","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/lymberopoulos-lab.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/lymberopoulos-lab.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lymberopoulos-lab.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lymberopoulos-lab.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2291"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/lymberopoulos-lab.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2291\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2292,"href":"https:\/\/lymberopoulos-lab.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2291\/revisions\/2292"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lymberopoulos-lab.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2290"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/lymberopoulos-lab.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2291"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lymberopoulos-lab.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2291"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lymberopoulos-lab.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2291"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
