There is one more solid reason for young boys to avoid junk food, apart from keeping lifestyle diseases at bay. Not eating junk food can protect your fertility, researchers have revealed.


The trans fat found in junk food is capable of damaging the sperms, experts have cautioned.



Many hundreds of sperms taken from many men between 18 and 22 years of age were analyzed for their quality.



The analysis revealed that the boys who consumed a lot of junk food with trans fat had very poor quality sperms. Results showed that a diet comprising wholegrains with lots of veg and fish helped in producing quality sperms.
