I previously addressed how we discovered the endocrine disruptor phenomenon in Alkylphenol Endocrine Disruptors and Allergies (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/alkylphenol-endocrine-disruptors-and-allergies/), as well as where they’re found (Dietary Sources of Alkylphenol Endocrine Disruptors http://nutritionfacts.org/video/dietary-sources-of-alkylphenol-endocrine-disruptors/). 

For more on sustaining male virility, see Male Fertility and Diet (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/male-fertility-and-diet/), The Role of Diet in Declining Sperm Counts (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/The-Role-of-Diet-in-Declining-Sperm-Counts), and Dairy Estrogen and Male Fertility (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/dairy-estrogen-and-male-infertility).

I’ve talked about the role a plastics chemical may play in male sexual functioning (BPA Plastic and Male Sexual Dysfunction http://nutritionfacts.org/video/bpa-plastic-and-male-sexual-dysfunction/), but It’s not just toxins, it’s the total diet (Survival of the Firmest: Erectile Dysfunction and Death http://nutritionfacts.org/video/survival-of-the-firmest-erectile-dysfunction-and-death/), and not only in men (Cholesterol and Female Sexual Dysfunction http://nutritionfacts.org/video/cholesterol-and-female-sexual-dysfunction/).
