Summary
This study looks at how diet and exercise affect the epigenome (chemical tags on DNA) in sperm of overweight, inactive Hispanic men. Researchers compare sperm from healthy active men and obese inactive men, then track changes after 12 weeks of diet, exercise, or both. The goal is to see if lifestyle can reverse unhealthy sperm epigenetics, which may impact future fertility.
