Natural Remedy for Semen pH Optimal & Survival
Think of sperm cells like the human body. They need food, healthy characteristics, and the right environment to survive. Remove any one of these factors, and semen can mutate. When most men ejaculate, all they see is the white, liquidly solution. The clear liquid is actually an alkaline-based solution used in helping sperm survive the arduous environment of the vagina. Inside the clear, alkaline solution is the sperm, fructose, proteolytic enzymes, and various mediums that are necessary for fertilization.
pH Levels Matter
Ever wonder what would happened to an astronaut if he didn’t wear one of his million dollar space suits? The Earth’s atmosphere contains plenty of breathable air. Space contains no air. Sure, the raw ingredients for air—Oxygen and Nitrogen—exist in space, but no breathable air is present.
You can imagine how quickly an astronaut would suffocate. Aside from breathable air, the Earth’s atmosphere also prevents dangerous rays from hitting our skin. Once outside the atmosphere, humans become exposed to dangerous sunlight rays.
Now think of that clear, alkaline solution as semen’s space suit, and the vagina as a different environment harmful to a sperm’s survival. The alkaline solution not only helps sperm swim, but also provides sperm with the right acidity level to survive inside the vagina. Ejaculation fluid must maintain a pH range between 7.2 to 7.8 in order to survive the vagina’s environment. [1] [2]
Semen Composition
Source
| Volume
| Characteristics
|
| Urethral and bulbourethral glands | 0.1 - 0.2cc | Viscous, clear |
| Testes, epididymides,vasa deferentia | 0.1 - 0.2cc | Sperm present |
| Prostate | 0.5 - 1.0cc | Acidic, watery |
| Seminal vesicles | 1.0 - 3.0cc | Gelatinous, fructose positive |
| Complete ejaculate | 2.0 - 5.0cc | Liquefies in 20 - 25min |
Prostate’s Role
The prostate gland, located just below the bladder, is responsible for producing the highly acidic fluid that neutralizes the high-alkaline seminal fluid from the seminal vesicle. If either the prostate or seminal vesicle malfunctions, the ejaculation fluid will become too acidic or too rich in alkaline. In fact, many case studies have reported that highly alkaline ejaculation fluid is yellowish in color; high alkaline fluid can change the pH level of a woman’s vagina, resulting in bacterial infection. Women who are allergic to alkaline fluid or have vaginal abrasions may even experience a burning sensation when semen is present in the vagina.
Solution Overview
Lepidium Meyerii, Sea Cucumber, and Tribulus Terrestris work to stimulate sperm production by sustaining testosterone levels. Meanwhile, Curculigo Orchioides, Eurycoma Longifolia, Fucus Vesiculosus, Panax Ginseng, Polygonum Multiflorum, and Resveratrol contain several anti-oxidant molecules and phyto-compounds that help produce healthy, active sperm by preventing DNA replication damage and sperm count hindrance.
The Lycopene, Fucus Vesiculosus, Mucuna Pruiens, Nettle, Cinnamomum Aromaticum, and Resveratrol rejuvenate the prostate and testes, producing an optimal pH level for the alkaline solution.
