Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The process of male fertility is intricate and multifaceted, impacted by a range of biological, environmental, and lifestyle variables. Among these, diet has become recognized as a crucial regulator of reproductive health, influencing hormone levels, spermatogenesis, and capacity for conception. Many aspects of how nutrition and certain nutrients affect male fertility are still poorly understood, despite increased interest in this topic.
In light of this, I am pleased to serve as a Guest Editor for this Special Issue, entitled "The Effect of Nutrition on Male Fertility", which seeks to gather cutting-edge research and reviews that delve into this crucial topic. We aim to provide a platform for high-quality studies exploring the molecular mechanisms, clinical interventions, and public health implications of nutrition on male reproductive outcomes.
I invite you to contribute to this Special Issue with your groundbreaking work and join us in advancing the scientific understanding of the nutritional factors that influence male fertility. By sharing your expertise, we can collectively enhance the field and inspire new directions for future research.
Original research articles and reviews (systematic reviews, critical reviews, and meta-analyses) are welcome to be submitted.
Dr. Mariarosaria Negri
Guest Editor
