Here's an interesting study:

High dietary intake of saturated fat is associated with reduced semen quality among 701 young Danish men from the general population

"Conclusions: Our findings are of potentially great public interest, because changes in diet over the past decades may be part of the explanation for the recently reported high frequency of subnormal human sperm counts. A reduction in saturated fat intake may be beneficial for both general and reproductive health."

    Will definitely eat more saturated fat because I do not want children.
