The only thing i can find which isn't an antioxidant, is Omega 3.
There are a few studies out there which investigate the impact of Omega 3 on sperm morphology, this one is perhaps the most interesting, it essentially analysed Omega 3 intake for 99 men and compared various sperm parameters, it found;
"intake of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) was associated with higher normal sperm morphology. Men in the highest tertile of omega-3 fatty acid intake had a 2.2 (95% CI: 0.7 to 3.4) higher percentage of morphologically normal sperm than men in the lowest tertile of intake."
Here's the table with the stats, the higher the Omega 3 intake as a % of your diet, the higher the sperm morphology;
This is a minor improvement, but I'm looking for all the help i can get, so Omega 3 makes the (now completely full) supplement list!
Next up I'm going to look into acupuncture a little more as there appears to be a few studies out there which suggest it can have a positive impact on sperm morphology.
