Do vitamins affect fertility?

by Alyson Greenhalgh and Dr. Sara Kirk

question
What vitamins, if any, are needed to increase my chance of conception?

answer
The research is still inconclusive on this subject, but there is some evidence that antioxidant vitamins, particularly vitamin C and vitamin E, as well as zinc may help to improve sperm motility and sperm counts. Fruits, vegetables, wholegrain cereals, nuts, seeds and meat products are rich in these antioxidant vitamins.
