Various studies now show a 20% decrease in semen volume in 50-year-old men compared with 30-year-olds. Sperm quality decreases too. Why this happens isn’t clearly understood, but age-related decline in semen volume and male fertility may be caused by changes in the genital urinary tract or perhaps by free radical damage at the cellular level. Sperm needs a healthy environment in which to survive. A decline in semen volume makes it harder for them to get to where they are supposed to go.
If you have been delaying fatherhood, or are concerned about this effect of aging, the following may be of interest to you. You can reverse this effect of aging and increase semen volume and quality again.
Fertility clinics often recommend dietary supplements to optimize sperm quality, fertility health and semen volume. The key ingredients are Acetyl-L-Carnitine, Folic Acid, Vitamins C, B12 and E, Selenium, and Zinc.
Sperm are particularly susceptable to oxidative damage, and it has been noted that high levels of free radicals are present in around 40% of infertile men so it makes sense to take supplements that contain Vitamin C which is a powerful antioxidant. Vitamin C is also thought to be helpful because it has a role in reducing the process of sperm agglutination (clumping together). As sperm agglutinate a man can become less able to impregnate a woman.
Folic acid, along with Zinc improves the quality of sperm in men who have fertility problems, according to a study from the University Medical Center Nijmegen in the Netherlands because the two nutrients are part of gene function and because enzymes involved in testosterone synthesis also rely on zinc. Zinc is thought to extend the lifespan of ejaculated sperm because zinc is found at such high levels in the testes.
Selenium an essential trace element and an important anti-oxidant, is associated with the treatment and prevention of cancer and heart disease. According to a Scottish research trial, Selenium has been shown to be a particularly important nutrient in overcoming male infertility. In a doubleblind, placebo-controlled study, men who took a vitamin tablet containing Zinc and Selenium had as much as an 80% increase in sperm motility.
Vitamin B12 is another important ingredient. It has been suggested that a B12 deficiency could lead to reduced sperm counts and reduced sperm motility.
Researchers have found that Acetyl-L-Carnitine may be able to stimulate sperm motility in certain situations.
Vitamin E has long been known for its antioxidant effects on cell membranes. Recently there has been some data published about vitamin E and its effect on fertility enhancement where taking it improved sperm function.
The good news is that Biotrex™ Renew+™ contains all those powerful recommended ingredients but also includes Lycopene to help protect your prostate and Ginkgo Biloba which improves circulation and helps increase blood flow to erectile tissue.

WASHINGTON, D.C. June 21, 2004 -- Eco-Artware.com is demonstrating how to put oldies but goodies to a new use. For music aficianados, album collectors or retro-minded fashion divas: one of a kind fashion statements made from classic long playing records.
These unique tote bags feature velcro-enclosed clear vinyl sides that hold two different authentic record jackets: a Beatles, Rolling Stones, or Bruce Springsteen album cover on one side, and a random rock favorite on the second side. Created by designer Meg Musick-Makely, these bags are very cool because of their smooth lines and practicality. When a new look - or musical theme - is desired, the covers can be recycled with others in your collection. Two amplifier knobs (that actually turn) decorate the sides and the two-inch wide shoulder strap is adjustable.
See the Vintage Vinyl Record Bracelet by Meg Musick-Makeley. When her pre-teen daughter dropped and cracked a favorite 33-1/3 record, Meg cut out the label to preserve the wonderful associations she had with the record. As she sliced across the surface, she got the idea to transform the label into a bracelet. The rest is record-breaking history, and we're proud to feature these vinyl cuff bracelets featuring various artists.
Still not rockin' enough? One of eco-Artware's most popular items continues to be Jeff Davis' Vinyl Record Bowls - deocrative centerpiece bowls molded from genuine LPs. The labels are sealed with mylar so that nothing falls through the spindle hole and are great for holding non-liquid food items or display pieces. The bowls can be accented by a set of Vinyl Record Coasters or the very timely Vinyl Record Clock.
Everyone from aspiring lylricists to autograph seekers will love our one-of-a-kind Album Cover Notebooks. Each is designed using authentic vintage LP album covers. And if that alone isn't cool enough, the notebook's paper is made with 100 percent recovered cotton denim, harvested from denim clothing manufacturers in the U.S. (We don't know, however, how mucyh of the denim comes from bell-bottoms).
There's no doubt that rock and roll is here to stay-in more ways than one - at Eco-Artware.com.

AURORA, Ontario, October 27, 2003 -- Knowledge Probe Inc announces the availability of the first of a family of unique computerized Alarm Clocks for MS/Windows®. Two initial products, Free Cellular Alarm Clock and CellAlarm, are directed towards users with cellular phones. Without any predecessors in the software marketplace, these PC-based productivity tools allow users to virtually pre-program their cellular phones with appointments, wake-up calls and reminders. No matter where they are, cell phone users can receive their important alarms and reminders at the times needed.
Created out of the necessity of scheduling varied wake-up times, the Cellular Alarms are useful for more than just wake-up calls. The company's website lists a myriad of uses from existing users. One user is quoted as using a pre-programmed alarm as a way of getting out of a boring meeting early. Another corporate user is using the tool to automatically remind staff away from the office to submit reports.
This simple application has already been downloaded by thousands of users in places as remote as Mauritius in the Pacific Ocean. According to the company, all one needs is a cellular provider that supports text messaging. Over 250 cellular providers across the globe are listed as being able to support the cellular alarms.
"I created CellAlarm to give my teenage son a way of getting up for college at different times each weekday. Seems teenagers respond better to telephone calls than alarm clocks", said Mark Kolb, President of Knowledge Probe Inc. Mr. Kolb further adds "You only need to program CellAlarm once. That's better than changing your alarm clock each night for the next morning - day in-day out".
In an interest marketing strategy, the Free Cellular Alarm version is available to any corporate sponsor at no cost for the purpose of branding their logo and targetted message within the product.
The Free Cellular Alarm Clock allows a user to program a single alarm at a time for his/her cell phone, while CellAlarm allows a user to program up to five cell phones (family/friends/staff) with up to 99 alarms. CellAlarm retails for $10 (US). Both products are delivered via the Internet.
With CellAlarm, users have the convenience of a novel way of being reminded anywhere they are of the things they need to do - provided they keep their cell phones handy.
