...seems to help sperm cells grow into strong swimmers-and that's critical. Weak sperm do not survive long in the wild environment of the reproductive tract. There may be millions of the tiny cells released, but to reach the egg they must withstand the acidic environment of the vagina, fight through a thick layer of cervical mucus and then race the other sperm to penetrate the egg's protective layer.
