I also just learned from Fertile Facts that "A study published in 2002 examined the effect of folic acid and zinc sulfate on male factor subfertility. This large, well-designed clinical trial found a 74% increase in total normal sperm when subfertile men took 66 mg of zinc sulfate and 5 mg of folic acid daily. Sperm count also increased in fertile men, but this was not statistically significant."
Spinach and Arugula eaten together in a very green salad should provide those nutrients. Parsley would help too.

Water is another key ingredient. According to China Daily's Lifestyle/Health page, "Phenylethylamine is known as the 'love drug'. It is a chemical that mimics the brain chemistry of a person in love and is believed to be the body's natural version of amphetamine...To maintain production of this love drug we need to eat well and stay hydrated...Hydration is so important. Sex is like a game of tennis – it can go on for quite some time and be pretty hot and sweaty, so if you're dehydrated you'll tire easily and it'll be game over all too soon.". Watermelon has cancer fighting compounds which positively affect prostate health and obviously provides hydration as well. Watermelon also has arginine, and Elements4Health tells us that "A study of 50 men with impotence reported significant improved sexual function after arginine supplementation." Let's add that to the list of sexual boosters.
Blood quality and the overall circulatory system is vital to sustaining healthy erections, so Beet juice and leafy greens, like Kale, for iron are prominently featured in my diet.
It's not nutrition, but I also frequently see the advice to wear loose fitting underwear so that the testicles can maintain their cooler than body temperature, temperature. That's easy enough.
Last but not least...Frequency of climax directly affects the volume and quality of the ejaculate. With that logic, the vaguely monthly sex I have should be keeping me brimming with fluids. That's turning a frown upside down for sure!
