Eating bacon can significantly lower a man’s sperm quality, Medical Daily reported.

In a study presented at the American Society for Reproductive Medicine’s 2013 Annual Meeting in Boston, researchers from Harvard University gathered data from 156 men who were undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVR) with a partner. Each couple was asked questions about their diet, including how often they consumed processed meat, red meat, white meat, poultry, and fish.

Hubby and I love bacon. Mmm. We haven’t noticed a fertility issue. Lol

Our son has had one surgery. More to come. He had a rough 36 hours when they took him off sedation post surgery. It is hard to watch. He pulled staples out of his incision! Now he is strapped down all over and has his head wrapped in a turban so he doesn’t pull out his pressure monitor. He is doing amazingly well, however! He can write and respond to commands. He does well with the physical therapist. Major surgeries soon to follow though we dont know when. You can see God’s hand in his healing and just that he is breathing at all. I stand amazed! Thank you for asking, and please keep him in your prayers.

I bought a package of really pretty bacon in Baxley, GA but it tasted funny. I took it back to the store and the butcher said someone slipped a boar hog in on them. He said the bacon was beautiful but had an off taste.

They replaced it of course.

I’m delighted with this news. I can just see any of my kids in the same situation, any time.

I’m more a pastry person than a meat person.

I thought I had heard you weren’t feeling well, but there can’t be much wrong with a fella who can start a bacon thread...:)

Given the high quality of my grown children and the quantity of bacon consumed as a young man, I call BS.

"Is there anything bacon can’t do?"

Well, there is ONE thing bacon cannot do: When bacon is the subject of a thread on Free Republic, that the bacon thread will get fewer hits in a given amount of time than any other subject, just using for example, a thread about the moon sized asteroid that is only a few hours from hitting us.

There is NOTHING that bacon cannot do.
