Abstract
Fertility is the natural human capability of producing offspring. Infertility is defined as one year of regular and unprotected intercourse without conception. The increase in male infertility has become a source of global concern. These have been attributed to factors such as smoking, drinking of alcoholic beverages, obesity, stress, poor nutrition and lack of exercise. Nutritional status, as a major lifestyle factor, is crucial determinants of normal reproductive function. This study aimed to investigate the effect of combinations of oils, green leaves and other plants on infertility rats. The current study was performed on a total of fifty adult male Sprague Dawley rats, average body weight (170 ± 5 g). The rats were distributed on 10 groups each of 5 rats. One group was kept as a control negative (C-ve) group which fed on basal diet, while the other rats fed on basal diet + previous injection (CdCl2, 0.1%) at 0.1 ml/100g body weight to induce male infertility. All rats were divided into the following groups: group (1): Control negative group (-), in which normal rats were fed on basal diet.
group (2): Control positive group (+), in which infertility rats were fed on basal diet. group (3): Infertile rats fed with 5% of formula (A) which formed of (Olive + Linseed + Sunflower + Mustard + Lettuce) oils. group (4): Infertile rats fed with 7.5 % of formula (A) which formed of (Olive + Linseed + Sunflower + Mustard + Lettuce) oils. group (5): Infertile rats fed with 5% of formula (B) which formed of (Leeks + chard + Lettuce + Watercress + Parsley) powders. group (6): Infertile rats fed with 7.5% of formula (B) which formed of (Leeks+ chard + Lettuce + Watercress + Parsley) powders. group (7): Infertile rats fed with 5% of formula (C) which formed of (Avocado+ Pumpkin+ Carrots+ Sweet Potato+ Yellow Pepper) powders.
