Moderate exercise training as an effective strategy to reduce the harmful effects of cell phone radiation on Wistar rat's semen quality

Abstract

Overview

The study investigates the the effect of moderate exercise on mitigating the detrimental impacts of electromagnetic radiation from cell phones on rat semen quality.

Background

With increasing exposure to cell phone radiation, understanding its impact on fertility is crucial. This study evaluates if exercise can reduce these harmful effects.

Materials and Methods

• Experiment involved 24 male Wistar rats divided into four groups: control, exercise-only, radiation-only, and radiation plus exercise.
• Exposure to cell phone radiation was set at 3 hours daily for 28 days.
• Exercise groups engaged in moderate training six days a week for the same period.
• Sperm parameters such as count, motility, morphology, and viability were meticulously recorded.

Findings

Significant declines in sperm quality were noted with radiation exposure, whereas moderate exercise notably improved these parameters, particularly when combined with radiation exposure.

Conclusion

Moderate exercise training shows promise in counteracting the deleterious effects of cell phone radiation on semen quality, potentially enhancing fertility in males.
