The testicles (testes) are a paired male organ responsible for the production of sperm. In addition, they are a source of the sex hormone (testosterone).
The testicles are located in the scrotum. This is important for normal sperm maturation, as the temperature for maturation must be slightly below body temperature. The testicles are located at different levels. At the same time, the left one is slightly lower and more than the right one.
Within a minute, almost 50 thousand sperm are produced in the testes. This process lasts from the beginning of puberty and continues throughout life.
Male seminal fluid consists of 30 different components, which include substances such as: fructose, potassium, magnesium, zinc, copper, sulfur, calcium, vitamins C and B12.
Therefore, for the normal functioning of the genitals, adequate nutrition is necessary, which, in turn, can provide full-fledged offspring.

- Spirulina. It has antitumor activity. Rich in phosphorus, potassium, sodium, vitamin B3, beta-carotene.
