İnfertilite ve Mikro Besin Ögeleri

Abstract

İnfertilite düzenli cinsel ilişkiye ve hiçbir korunma yöntemi kullanılmamasına rağmen bir sene içerisinde gebelik gerçekleşmeme durumu olarak tanımlanmaktadır. İnfertilite tüm dünyayı etkileyen önemli bir sağlık sorunudur. İnfertilitenin önlenmesinde ve tedavisinde yeterli ve dengeli beslenme büyük önem taşımaktadır. Enerji dengesi, beden kütle indeksi ve makro besin ögelerinin infertilite üzerinde etkileri bulunduğu aşikardır. Bu derleme makalenin amacı ise mikro besin ögelerinin infertilite üzerindeki etkilerini bilimsel veriler ışığıyla aydınlatmaktır. Antioksidan özellikteki mikro besin ögelerinin (A, C, E vitaminleri, selenyum ve çinko gibi) DNA hasarının önlenmesi, serbest radikallerin yok edilmesi aracılığıyla infertilitede etkili olduğu düşünülmektedir. Folat, D vitamini ve B12 vitaminin genitoüriner sistem etkileri sayesinde infertilitenin önlenmesi ve tedavisinde etkin olabileceği belirtilmiştir. Mikrobesin ögeleri ile infertilite arasındaki ilişkinin tam olarak açıklanması, suplemanların kullanım dozları ve sağlık yararlarının incelenmesi amacıyla yapılacak çalışmalara ihtiyaç duyulmaktadır.

INFERTILITY and MICRONUTRIENTS

Abstract

Infertility is defined as not being able to get pregnant in a year despite the regular unprotected sexual intercourse. Infertility is an important health problem affecting the entire world. Adequate and balanced nutrition plays an important role in the prevention and treatment of infertility. Energy balance, body mass index and macro nutrients have obvious effects on infertility. The purpose of this review is to explain the effects of micronutrients on infertility in light of the foregoing scientific data. Micronutrients with antioxidant properties are (such as vitamin A,vitamin C,vitamin E, zinc and selenium) thought to be effective in infertility by preventing DNA damage and destroying free radicals. Folate, vitamin D and vitamin B12 have been shown to be effective in the prevention and treatment of infertility due to the effects of genitourinary system. Further studies are needed to clarify the relationship between micronutrients and infertility and to evaluate the use doses and health benefits of supplements.
