HealthyNuts is a novel sensor based medical device to assist males to monitor and take action to improve semen parameters in an inexpensive and private manner in preparation to conceive. There are a couple of aspects the solution could bring benefits from health, economic and society point of view.
The HealthyNuts device could help to improve semen quality by 28% or higher by assisting men to reduce testicular heat stress by monitoring with The HealthyNuts sensors.
The HealthyNuts device helps to optimize testicular temperature for proper sperm maturation. Built in temperature tracking sensor and alarm functions notify the patient if temperature is not proper for swimmers sperm production. According to Ashok Agarwal, Damayanthi Durairajanayagam, Chloe Ong ‘An increase of 1°C is correlated to a 14% drop in spermatogenesis with poorer sperm production’ [3].
The HealthyNuts device helps to avoid sperm DNA fragmentation, oxidative stress, caused by mobile radiation. Built in EMF (cell phones) radiation sensor and alarm application functions notify patient that testicles are being exposed to (cell phones) radiation.
The HealthyNuts device may help to eliminate EMF radiation exposure as a factor impacting on sperm oxidative stress, DNA fragmentation and sperm maturation. According to a publication by Igor Gorpinchenko1, Oleg Nikitin, Oleg Banyra, Alexander Shulyak only just up to 2 hours of EMF exposure cause and increase in sperm DNA damage [4] by 50%. According to Ashok Agarwal „cell phone radiation causes oxidative stress in heat semen and leads to decreases in spermatozoa motility and viability” [5].
The HealthyNuts device helps to improve patients daily activity and movement. Built in movement sensor and alarm function notify patients when activity is too low.
The HealthyNuts device may help to eliminate low activity levels and poor testicles ventilation and may help impacting on lower BMI level.
According to Richard M. Sharpe „Several studies have shown up to a threefold higher incidence of obesity in infertile men than in those with normal semen quality” [6].
