Every woman is born with all the immature eggs that she will have in her lifetime period. The eggs lie dormant in the ovaries, waiting to become activated by hormones. Environmental factors that eggs are exposed to such as toxins, chemicals, and any nutritional deficiencies, can affect the quality of these eggs waiting to become activated.
Antioxidants are vitamins, minerals and other nutrients that help to protect the body from the damage caused by free radicals, which are unstable molecules that can damage cell structure. Research indicates that egg cells are highly susceptible to harm from free radicals, the unstable oxygen molecules that are produced as the body breaks down toxins.
Has potent antioxidant properties that help to stabilize cell membrane to enhance egg quality. It is produced by the body, however production declines with age. Low CoQ10 can result in decreased energy production and increased oxidative stress. It helps support and improve mitochondrial function, which is the powerhouse of the cell, providing a fertililzed egg energy to divide and implant. CoQ10 is required for mitochondrial ATP synthesis, or energy production.
Fatty acids that when supplemented can help produce a higher number of follicles. Omega 3’s comprise many chemicals that reduce inflammation and support the health of cell membranes. Recent research shows that there may be a link between consuming omega 3’s and delayed ovarian aging and improving egg quality.
Is another important antioxidant. It helps to repair damage caused by the enformonment and aging. Vitamin C supports healthy blood vessel structure and reduces blood pressure and inflammation. Vitamin C may be involved in the release of progesterone and may be effective treatment for luteal phase defect. According to a study published in Fertility and Sterility, a moderate amount of supplemental vitamin C improves hormone levels and increases fertility.
Vitamin E is an antioxidant that helps to prevent oxidatitive mitochondrial damage to the egg. It may also improve glandular epithelial growth and development of blood vessels in the endometrium. Vitamin E is incorporated into the lipid (fatty) part of the cell membrane, where it stabilizes and protects the cell membrane from toxic compounds including lead, mercury and other heavy metals,cleaning solvents (all known endocrine disruptors); medications; radiation; and free-radicals Some studies also suggest that Vitamin E can lengthen the luteal phase of the cycle.
Is a super potent antioxidant. It is effective against fat soluble and water soluble free radicals. Pycnogenol has anti-inflammatory effects and supports blood vessel structure. Antioxidants may help diminish the toxic effects of oxygen-free radicals that can accumulate in the follicular fluids surrounding eggs.
An amino acid that encourages the pituitary gland to produce more human growth hormone which in turn helps improve the quality and quantity of egg production. L-arginine allows for better blood circulation to the ovaries, which can allow for optimum egg production, creating a better environment to allow for the implantation of a fertilized egg.

Sperm cells require energy to function, because of this need, they generate oxidation—which can ultimately damage cell membranes, DNA molecules, and the very mitochondria that power the cell in the first place. There's a well-known association between oxidant stress, the antioxidant capacities of sperm cells and semen, and final sperm quality. In general, men with elevated markers of oxidation show impaired sperm count and more abnormally-formed cells.
Coenzyme Q10 is a vitamin-like substance found in body cells, especially in the heart, kidney, liver, and pancreas, that may promote health and fight some diseases. Scientists believe CoQ10 functions as an antioxidant that blocks actions that can damage cells. New studies have found that supplements of CoQ10 can help improve sperm movement in infertile men.
VITAMIN C is an important anti-oxidant that helps prevent sperm defects and boosts sperm motility. Studies have shown that lower levels of vitamin C may lead to infertility and increased damage to the sperm's genetic material.
VITAMIN E is a powerful antioxidant that improves sperm count, quality, and motility. It helps keep the sperm membrane healthy and protects sperm from free-radical damage. Studies show that vitamin E supplements improve the sperm’s overall ability to penetrate an egg. IVF success rates are higher for couples in which the man takes vitamin E supplements.
ZINC- Zinc deficiency is associated with poor sperm quality resulting from increased oxidant stress in seminal plasma, the liquid portion of semen that is responsible for maintaining sperm cells in a healthy state. Depletion of zinc also reduces the volume of semen produced. Studies in both animal models and humans demonstrate significant improvements in sperm quality following zinc supplementation, especially in cases of known infertility. Supplementation increases sperm counts, mobility, and fertilizing capacity, and decreases levels of DNA damage, structural abnormalities in sperm, and levels of antibodies to sperm that can impair sperm quality.
Essential fatty acids are necessary to the production of healthy sperm. They improve sperm membranes and protect sperm from oxidative stress. Omega-3s stimulate blood flow to sexual organs and improve sexual function. Inadequate intake of these fatty acids has been linked to poor sperm quality, abnormal sperm, poor motility, and low sperm count, largely because of their role in membrane structure.
Previous research has shown that men with poor sperm counts saw improvement after taking fish oil supplements high in omega-3 fats. A 2012 study by the journal Human Reproduction, found that high intake of omega-3 fats was linked to more normal sperm size and shape, while high intake of saturated fat (the bad fats, aka Trans Fats) was related to lower sperm concentration
Acetyl-L-Carnitine is concentrated in the epididymis, it acts as an antioxidant, protecting spermatozoa against damage caused by reactive oxygen species. This is where sperm mature and acquire their motility. Studies have shown that Acetyl-L-carnitine supplementation for three to four months can significantly improver sperm function and fertility.
