That Printer in Your House might affect your Fertility

You might be shaken aback to know, that your skin care products, cookware devices and even printers, too are the causes of infertility. Beware and stay cautious, natural and healthy! 

Infertility is often seen to be a women’s problem, but is most prevalent among men. Male infertility is a process wherein; the semen or sperm does not perform up to its potential. Infertility has been increasing day by day due to changing lifestyle patterns, trends and attitudes.

We might not have ever imagined, that poisonous chemicals with which we come in contact with everyday might be hazardous, making our fertility levels to drop.

Printers that are widely used across the world, the inkjet cartridges inserted within them have ‘glymes’ which affects the level of fertility. Study shows that the workers in factories where glymes are produced and used extensively have a really high rate of infertility. These glymes are often present in lithium batteries, paints and carpet cleaners.

“It is also proven that, only a few out of 60,000 commercial products are examined that are suitable and fit to use. Vulnerability to pesticides, solvents, nitrates, metals and other industrial chemicals cause drop in the levels of fertility and rising hormonal imbalances, miscarriage and sperm disruption.” says Dr. Rita Bakshi, Senior Gynecologist and IVF Specialist of International Fertility Centre.

Nonstick Cookware that we use several times for cooking is actually draining toxic substances into our food. Canned foods that have a plastic container are destructive. Also, too much exposure to vinyl products like room fresheners, scented candles, detergents, hairsprays etc. can also be a curse for our bodies.

It is a grave matter of concern that even water has presence of certain nitrates that causes infertility. Excessive intake of sugar can also develop erectile dysfunction. Paints, pet care products, building material could also be a root cause and may affect fertility levels.

“We are often exposed to several products in our day-to-day life which we think are safe, might not be totally safe for our health. They might be damaging your chromosomes, functional birth defects, menstrual problems or even disrupting the hormones. Thus, one must adopt practices that reduce exposure to such products.” Dr. Bakshi further added.
