A newly released UK study shows how smoking and alcohol consumption do not affect semen quality, BBC reported. The research, published in the journal Human Reproduction, however did state that avoiding both remains the best health advice.

Researchers at the Universities of Sheffield and Manchester compared the lifestyles of 939 men with poor sperm quality to those of 1,310 men with normal sperm quality.

The study showed there was little difference in the number of active spermatozoids between those of patients who never smoked and those of patients who had a 20-a-day habit.

There was also little evidence that excessive alcohol consumption affected the sperm quality.

據(jù)英國廣播公司報道，英國最新研究證實，抽煙喝酒不會影響精子質(zhì)量，該結(jié)果已發(fā)表在《人類生殖》雜志上，但文章稱，保持健康首先仍要遠(yuǎn)離煙酒。

針對939名精子質(zhì)量不佳和1310名精子質(zhì)量正常的男士，謝菲爾德大學(xué)和曼徹斯特大學(xué)的研究人員對其生活方式進(jìn)行了比較。

結(jié)果發(fā)現(xiàn)，從不吸煙者與一天抽20支煙的人相比，活躍的精子數(shù)量差別不大。

同時，過量飲酒影響精子質(zhì)量的說法也證據(jù)不足。
