Chemistry question (sex)?!
Question:
Chemistry question (sex)?
When you eat sweet and acidic fruits it makes your semen smell better. Is this because the acidity eats away at the putricine? And if that is true then couldn't eating more acidic foods(like mountain dew) lower your sperm count because it eats away at part of the semen?
Answers:
No, your digestive system takes care of foods, they don't directly impact your sperm or seminal fluid. Your own stomach produces much more powerful acids than mountain dew or any other stuff you drink. Your food is fully broken down into components that can be carried by your blood. Plus sperm that is ejaculated with each load of semen is 2 or 3 weeks old, it is not produced and ejaculated immediately, it must develop and mature. So even if it was true, you would have to drink the soft drink a couple of weeks before you had sex. Another silly urban myth.
