Around the world, we're seeing declining sperm counts, rising infertility, more erectile dysfunction, and lower testosterone—even in younger men. These trends aren't just affecting family planning; they're pointing to something much bigger happening in men's health. Joining me today on The Dr. Hyman Show is Dr. Michael Eisenberg, a Stanford researcher and leading voice in male reproductive health. We talk about why sperm quality matters far beyond fertility—and how everyday health choices quietly shape it. Watch the full conversation on YouTube or listen wherever you get your podcasts. [YOUTUBE THUMBNAIL] We cover: • Why sperm quality may be one of the strongest early indicators of overall health and longevity • How metabolic dysfunction, belly fat, and low testosterone impact fertility and sexual function • The role environmental toxins and endocrine disruptors play in declining sperm counts • What men can do right now to protect fertility and long-term vitality When we look at fertility through the lens of whole-body health, it changes how we think about prevention, risk, and longevity. Male fertility isn't just about reproduction. It's a signal. Register for The Ultra Learning Series: Functional Fertility on Thursday, February 12 at 12PM ET here.

We already know that what we eat, drink, and inhale can affect which parts of our DNA are expressed, and which aren't. But recent research poses a shocking idea: A dad's habits may be encoded in molecules and transmitted to his future kids.

Fertility, chronic illness, and children's health are colliding in ways we can no longer ignore, and this conversation brings much-needed clarity to what's happening beneath the surface. In this episode, I'm joined by Ann Shippy, MD, a board-certified internal medicine physician and functional medicine practitioner whose work is reshaping how we think about preconception, detoxification, and generational health.We explore Dr. Shippy's personal healing journey, from severe gut illness and infertility to a complete career pivot into medicine, and how that experience shaped her systems-based approach to root-cause healing. From there, we dig into the modern fertility crisis, including declining sperm counts, rising miscarriage rates, and the alarming increase in childhood chronic disease, autism, and autoimmunity.This conversation centers on the preconception window, the months and years before pregnancy that determine the health of sperm, eggs, and ultimately future generations. We break down how toxins like mold, heavy metals, plastics, pesticides, and PFAS quietly damage mitochondria, hormones, and DNA, and why fertility challenges can be a powerful “check engine light” for deeper imbalances in the body.We also get practical, covering environmental testing, detox strategies, and why gentle, well-supported detoxification matters more than aggressive protocols. Dr. Shippy explains how nutrition, minerals, glutathione, methylation, and nervous system regulation work together to restore resilience, whether you're trying to conceive or simply aiming for long-term vitality.If you're thinking about having children, struggling with fertility, or concerned about the health trajectory of future generations, this episode offers both hope and a science-backed roadmap forward.Order Ann's new book, The Preconception Revolution: A Science-Backed Path to Your Fertility and Generational Health, at annshippymd.com/the-preconception-revolution.DISCLAIMER: This podcast is for educational purposes only and not intended for diagnosing or treating illnesses.

What if the most dangerous health device in your home is the one you use without thinking. In this episode of The Healthier Tech Podcast, Dr. Beverly Jensen, founder of YouAndEMF.com, explains why modern EMF exposure is not just a fringe concern and how everyday tech habits may be quietly affecting fertility, brain health, childhood development, and long term wellbeing This is a practical, eye opening conversation that connects the dots between invisible radiation, chronic exposure, and the tech behaviors we have normalized. You will hear about: How sitting near a Wi Fi router for months triggered Dr. Jensen's EMF sensitivity and reshaped her life's work Why airplane mode alone can cut phone radiation exposure by roughly 95 percent The uncomfortable reason phones do not belong in pockets, bras, or on laps What more than 200 studies reveal about sperm damage, fertility decline, and phone placement The disturbing rise in colorectal cancer among children and why researchers are questioning constant device exposure Why women and children appear to be more vulnerable to EMFs and why mothers often lead behavior change How Hollywood once normalized cigarettes and how phones may be following the same path Simple low cost steps that dramatically reduce EMF exposure without abandoning modern technology This episode is not about panic or unplugging from life. It is about understanding cumulative exposure and making smarter choices with the devices you already use. If you care about digital wellness, fertility, brain health, or raising kids in a hyper connected world, this conversation will likely change how you think about your phone and your home.

Ma'am… we need to have a grown conversation. In this episode, I'm breaking down something most people don't want to talk about—because it's not "popular," it's not trendy, and it doesn't sound like the feel-good advice floating around online. But it might be the information that saves you. I'm Shay—your Love Diva. I'm a master's certified love strategist, and yes, I'm also a woman of science. I graduated pre-med biology, spent over a decade in pharmaceutical sales, and I've helped high-value women uplevel their love lives using the science of attraction for over ten years. And today, we're talking about what happens when you're sexually intimate with a man—because it's not "just sex." Even with a condom, you're still exposing your body to him. And according to research, semen isn't just fluid—it's biological data: proteins, hormones, and molecular messengers that communicate with your immune system and reproductive system. Meaning your body can adapt, adjust, and respond to a man's presence in ways you may not even realize. So if you've ever wondered why you felt anxious after sleeping with him… why you felt emotionally off… why you stayed attached to an ex you know was toxic… we're going there. Because the real question is: is he worth it? Is he worth how your body may be responding long-term? Is he worth what he might be leaving behind—biochemically, emotionally, mentally? This episode is for the woman who's done being reckless with access to her body and is ready to start moving like a wife—strategic, intentional, and protected.

Your fertility might be the canary in your body's coal mine. Urologist Dr. Justin Houman explains why this matters way beyond making babies.Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1254What We Discuss with Dr. Justin Houman:Male fertility is a diagnostic window into overall health. Low sperm counts correlate with cardiovascular disease, metabolic dysfunction, hormonal imbalances, and even earlier mortality. Your reproductive system is essentially sending you a biological memo about the state of your entire body.Varicoceles (varicose veins of the testicles) are one of the most underdiagnosed yet treatable causes of male infertility, low testosterone, and testicular pain. They cause blood to pool and overheat the testicles, and most men never know they have them because general practitioners rarely check for them during routine physicals.TRT (testosterone replacement therapy) shuts down natural testosterone and sperm production — and once you start, you essentially can't stop. Before jumping on the TRT train, explore alternatives like addressing vitamin deficiencies, improving sleep, and using medications that stimulate natural production instead.Erectile dysfunction isn't just a bedroom problem — it's often the first warning sign of cardiovascular disease. The same arterial issues that cause heart attacks show up in penile blood flow first, making your erection quality a surprisingly accurate early warning system for your heart health.The foundations of long-term hormonal and sexual health are remarkably simple: consistent strength training, quality sleep, stress management, and whole foods. Starting in your twenties and thirties, these habits build the infrastructure that keeps your systems running smoothly for decades to come.And much more...And if you're still game to support us, please leave a review here — even one sentence helps!

Around the world, many countries are concerned about tackling the decline in birth rates and total fertility rates. The US is no exception. To tackle this issue the US government announced that it would provide subsidies for Americans seeking IVF treatment. The announcement was accompanied by one suspect sounding stat from US Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. "Today the average teenager in this country has 50% of the sperm count, 50% of the testosterone as a 65-year-old man," he said. We speak to Professor Allan Pacey, Professor of Andrology at the University of Manchester, and Adith Arun, a researcher at Yale University to find out whether this statement is accurate.

Sperm whales are among the most extraordinary creatures on the planet—massive, deep-diving, highly social, and constantly communicating. David Gruber, marine biologist and founder of Project CETI, leads a global team of scientists using cutting-edge technology to decode the vocalizations of these remarkable animals. A 2025 Tällberg-SNF-Eliasson Global Leadership Prize winner, Gruber explains how understanding whale communication isn't about speaking to them, but about learning how they see and interact with the world we share. In this episode, he discusses the science, wonder, and purpose behind CETI—and what unlocking whale language could mean for humanity.

In this episode, I'm answering one of the most common questions I get from all of you: How can I improve embryo quality? And, I also very often get the questions of how could I improve egg and sperm quality too? I'm really excited to talk about this with you today!! The thing is this, there are three factors that influence egg, sperm and embryo quality that I want you to know about. Once you know about it, then you can do something about how these three things come into play in your life. And the three factors that I want you to know about are age, genetics, and environment.

Episode 334 Which sperm is the oldest sperm - the ancestor sperm that came before all others? Well, you might think it links back to an ancient animal that came before us, but the oldest sperm may actually predate animals altogether. We explore this plus the enduring mystery of the scrotum - and why a male's most important body part is so delicate and…exposed. The team hears about the variation in scrotum morphology across mammals, and the evolution of “non-scrotality”. Our brains undergo four major turning points throughout our lives. New research suggests the way our brains are wired shifts at key stages as we get older - and your adolescent years may last longer than you realised. We explore what is happening at each brain stage, how long they last and why this research could prove useful in figuring out conditions like depression or dementia. Politicians, scientists, celebrities and climate activists gathered at the National Emergency Briefing in London this week and the message was clear: environmental breakdown is escalating faster than expected. One report highlighted that the biggest health risk of the 21st century is climate change, and other scientists described scenarios of starvation, wars and ungovernable societies. But there were messages of empowerment and hope too. Hear from some of the scientists - and a British army general - at the event. Hosted by Rowan Hooper and Penny Sarchet, with guests Sam Wong, Carissa Wong, Michael Le Page, Lt General Richard Nugee, Paul Behrens and Kevin Anderson.

See the full show notes: https://www.draimee.org/understanding-fertility-and-the-tushy-method-hosted-by-anne-matthews In this episode hosted by Anne Matthews, a fertility-focused acupuncturist from Energy Tree in Toronto, Canada, Anne discusses fertility issues with Dr. Aimee. Anne reveals how she became a fan of Dr. Aimee's holistic and patient-centric approach rooted in the TUSHY method, which stands for Testing: Tubes, Uterus, Sperm, Hormones, and Your genetics. They delve into the inadequacies of common fertility treatments, the importance of comprehensive diagnostic tests, and the role of acupuncture. They also discuss the implications of factors such as polyps, DNA fragmentation in sperm, and the significance of quality embryo grading. Dr. Aimee emphasizes the importance of personalized patient care, thorough diagnoses, and being emotionally and physically prepared for pregnancy, reflecting on her own motivations for specializing in fertility treatments. The conversation also covers the roles of psychological support, supplementation, and the evolving landscape of egg freezing and IVF.

Everyday exposure to pesticides, even from conventionally grown fruits and vegetables, disrupts sperm function and reduces fertility in otherwise healthy men Researchers found that higher levels of pesticide residues in urine were linked to slower, less motile sperm, showing that even non-occupational exposure harms reproductive health Organophosphate pesticides damage sperm by disrupting calcium balance, impairing mitochondrial energy production, and oxidizing cell membranes, which reduces both movement and viability Global data confirm these effects, revealing consistent patterns of reduced sperm motility, concentration, and normal shape across men from multiple countries, even when hormone levels remain normal Reducing exposure through organic foods, filtered water, regular exercise, and sauna use helps your body eliminate stored toxins, restore mitochondrial energy, and rebuild sperm health within a few months
Fertility Docs Uncensored is hosted by Dr. Carrie Bedient from the Fertility Center of Las Vegas, Dr. Susan Hudson from Texas Fertility Center, and Dr. Abby Eblen from Nashville Fertility Center. This week, the docs welcome Dr. Nadine Al Kaisi, MD, a reproductive endocrinologist at Eggcellent Fertility, who brings an international perspective to the fertility field. Dr. Al Kaisi has practiced reproductive medicine across Germany, Spain, Belgium, and London, giving her a unique understanding of how fertility care differs around the world. In Germany, for example, preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy (PGT-A) is not routinely performed and is used only in specific cases, such as when both partners carry a genetic condition or when sperm morphology is abnormal. Unlike in the US, much of fertility treatment in Germany is covered by insurance, creating a hybrid system that includes both public and private options. German laws impose strict limitations on fertility options outside of IVF. Egg freezing is restricted to married individuals, and same-sex couples are not eligible for treatment. Sperm donation is permitted but tightly regulated, with minimal information about the donor. At age 16, the donor-conceived child is able to contact the donor. Dr. Al Kaisi also explains how clinics in Germany perform natural cycle IVF, freeze embryos at the pronuclear stage, and transfer only one embryo per cycle. Other European countries, such as Spain and the Czech Republic, have more liberal practices—similar to the United States—though surrogacy remains prohibited. This is an interesting perspective on the different ways IVF is done in other countries. This podcast was sponsored by RMA New York.
On Today’s Show:
I used to assume conception began at the first sign of pregnancy — until I learned about Trimester Zero. The 100-day window before conception may be the most powerful period in shaping your baby's lifelong health — and your own. In this minisode, I sit down with Vida Delrahim and Ronit Menashe, co-founders of WeNatal, to unpack what science now calls the pre-pregnancy trimester. We talk about how both women and men can dramatically influence fertility and genetics before conception through nutrition, lifestyle, and the health of one mighty organelle — the mitochondria.This episode features highlights from our full conversation, which premiered August 12th, 2025. Watch the full episode here → https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5gztCFH603g About the guests:After experiencing miscarriages just a week apart, best friends Vida and Ronit were devastated — and confused. Both were healthy, both on prenatal vitamins, and yet doctors dismissed their losses as “random” or “age-related.” They partnered with leading experts, pored over research, and created a science-backed prenatal system for both women and men. What began as a personal mission has grown into WeNatal — a movement giving couples the knowledge, tools, and products to support conception, pregnancy, and the lifelong health of future generations. *** Subscribe to The Neuro Experience for more conversations at the intersection of brain science and performance.
