Mountain Dew Reduces The Sperm Count?
Share The Knowledge
Mountain dew is a carbonated soft drink which is owned by PepsiCo. Its formula was originally developed by two Tennessee bottlers, Barney and Ally Hartman in 1940s. These rumours were also faced by Mello Yello, another Coca Cola product, and now it’s the same regarding Mountain Dew.
The reason behind these rumours is the presence of a dye called Yellow no.5, which is thought to be dangerous to health and sperm production. This substance is also called tartrazine which has been approved by the Food and Drug Association (FDA) for the use in food, drug and cosmetics. The only thing which is required by FDA regarding tartrazine is that its presence should be mentioned in making of the product.
“This is simply not true, and is just one of the many stupid ideas that reckless young people perpetuate about sex.”
The only problem FDA has identified regarding tartrazine is its effect on sensitive people with a variety of allergic reactions. It is this dye which gives Mountain Dew its yellowish colour.
So drinking this “sperm reducing refreshment” is safe and rumours about it are just myths and there are no scientific proofs to this rumour.
