The Zardoz Effect: The Epidemic of Male Infertility

By: William Wong ND, PhD, Member World Sports Medicine Hall of Fame

Remember the 1974 Sean Connery movie where he was the last fertile man on earth?  Zardoz.  Well art seems to predate and predict reality.  Things may just come to something close to that.

Birth rates across Western Europe are the lowest ever seen.  The numbers of babies being born is not as great as the number of people dying  (1,2,3).   France and Spain have active campaigns to increase the number of babies being made!  (Any volunteers to go help out)?   Africa, for the first time in memory, is also in the negative numbers in terms of births, with the number of children being born (never mind surviving to adulthood) not coming close to number of people lost to disease, famine, tribal genocide and war.   Here in the States the main thing keeping our birth rate up is illegal immigration! 

Worldwide, the fertility of both men and women is declining but things seem to be worse for the men!  In 1960 a good sperm count was considered to be 120 million sperm per milliliter of seminal fluid.  Anything lower than that and a man was considered to be only marginally fertile.  These days, things have become so bad that a man is considered fertile if he has only 20 million sperm per milliliter of ejaculate!  What happened? 

Xenoestrogens happened.  Since WW 2, mankind has filled the world and himself with estrogen like substances.  Pesticides, synthetic fertilizers, petrochemical fumes, the esters that plastics give off when heated, and the worst offender of all in the estrogen world – soy.  I won't rehash my litany against soy, you'll have to read about it's many ill effects on my website (Soy the Poison Seed), at www.westonaprice.org, and www.soyonlineservice.co.nz.   In both men and women high estrogen creates infertility.  That's why estrogen is used in birth control pills.  The synthetic progesterone used in other birth control pills have been molecularly modified to act like estrogens, which is why instead of increasing fertility the way real (natural) progesterone does the prescription drug, progesterone, decreases fertility and if used during pregnancy can create birth defects and mutation.
