Mature Cheeses

The health of sperm may be enhanced by mature cheeses such as aged cheddar, parmesan, and manchego. Polyamine concentrations in mature cheeses are high. In both plant and animal products, polyamines are proteins. They also exist naturally in people.

According to research, polyamines may be crucial to the reproductive system. Putrescine is a polyamine that is particularly abundant in mature cheese and may be important for sperm health. Putrescine (the same putrescine that is found in grapefruit) may also benefit egg health, particularly in women over 35. For a snack in the afternoon, combine some cheese with some nuts or fruit. You can sprinkle cheese over almost everything. When including cheese in your diet, just be aware of portion sizes because even a tiny serving has a lot of calories and saturated fat, enjoy it in moderation.
