    Are you talking about DHEA?
    I think in small doses, like 25-50 mg it helps with testosterone and sperm count, it's excessive doses that suppress sperm production. IDK how much of it is excessive.

    For sperm motility CoQ-10 should be the best choice, also FA, Zinc, vit E and L-Carnitine.

    no i wasnt talking about dhea, i dont know what that is. i just read (thru my personal research) that T based supplements can do the exact opposite (impeded sperm production)..but i see whta youre saying...only if its in excess. yes im defly doing coq10, zinc, and l carnitine so far for dh. i found coq10 at our local walgreens. i thought i heard that coq10 was d/c'd from GNC, i wonder why? just ppl not purchasing it enough..as long as it wasnt recalled or anything...

    Massive doses of ANY nutrients CAN indeed cause sperm count to decline. A lot of that info is directed towards bodybuilders who take freaking insane dosages of T raising supps. Too much T can cause a man's testicles to actually shrink and produce much less sperm than they would otherwise. You are looking for high normal T, not T that is abnormally high.

    I really really think that the best way to raise T for the wife is the boring way - eating a well balanced diet with lots of protein, healthy fats, and phytonutrients, and lifting weights and doing moderate exercise.

    That having been said, gelatin is a good way to raise your testosterone and good ol' oatmeal has an ingredient in it that may raise testosterone. You can even buy oat supplements http://www.google.com/products/catal...d=0CE8Q8wIwAw#

    Wait a min. this is great! We just can't bring ourselves to eat oatmeal much at all...So this avena sativa suppose to be just like oatmeal or what? Does it works the same? And what's the ingr. in it? For sure me and DH would take it instead of eating much oatmeal.
