It's one of the rare case where dirty makes you healthy. A recent study has reinforces what previous research has said: That a man's semen is a good anti-wrinkle potion. Itu00a0 contains proteins that have a tightening effect on the skin. As the water in it evaporates, the protein gathers to stretching out fine wrinkles. And your imagination, perhaps.
As natural and beneficial as this remedy may sound (if you are willing to ignore the bizarre angle), it's far from popular thanks to the nose-twitch factor. But we say, give it a thought. It could work towards delaying ageing, it's free, and a great way to put some part of your man to good use.
What's sperm made up of?
The constituents list looks like a label attached to a vitamin box. It contains at least 3 vitamins: C, B12, and E. It also contains important minerals including calcium, magnesium, potassium, zinc, and phosphor. Two sweeteners, fructose (found in fruits) and sorbitol are in there too. It also contains proteins. Strangely, all this makes sperm an exceptional nutritional supplement (but not one that can ever substitute a balanced diet, experts warn). It also contains a trace of cholesterol and sodium.
But no one told Shahnaz!
Shahnaz Hussain, Beauty Expert
I haven't tried it, so I can't comment. But of the stuff I have tried, the following work. Always use a good sunblock when going out, a day moisturiser and a herb- based night moisturiser. Keep stress at bay.
Why not
Sherlyn Chopra, model-actor
I am shocked! Aisa bhi hota hai kya? I'd like to try and see if it works. Ismain woh baat hai jo ageing cream mein hai, then great! Other treatments like Botox are very painful. This sounds super easy!
No way
Negar Khan, item girl
I haven't heard of anything like this before! Even if scientifically proven, I'd never use it. Just the thought of using something that comes out of someone's body is weird.
Maybe
Priya Bhattacharya, model
I don't know of it so far, but if it is an anti-wrinkle agent and helps tighten skin, I'll use it. But firstly, i'll ensure it doesn't react on my skin. I won't take that risk because it's my face that sells. I'll buy a trial pack first and make sure there are no side effects.
No way
Ashutosh Srivastav, media professional
The theory is weird, but I can give it a try!
Lab culture can turn it into cream
Dr Anup Dhir, Cosmetic Surgeon
"It's proven that sperm has high protein content, and if it is replicated in a lab, after culture, it can be potentially used in a cream. This is something similar to the egg packs we have."
A good diet has same benefits
Ekta Tandon, Nutritionist and dietician, DailyDiet.in
"After you hit 27, you need to take care of your skin because the old cells are replaced by new ones depending on what you eat. Lots of nuts, vegetables and fruits keep nutritional levels to an optimum. Avoid high intake of carbohydrates, sugar, cheese, milk, cigarettes, processed and tinned food; these make you age faster. Regular exercise, and drinking green tea help too. Pick veggies from a reputed vendor to ensure they are not infected."

It works as hair gel too!
In what has been voted as the funniest scene in Hollywood history, Cameron Diaz, in the romcom There's Something About Mary, uses semen as hair gel. Ted (Ben Stiller) is masturbating at his home prior to a date with Mary (Diaz). After successfully reaching orgasm, he wonders where the ejaculate landed. Mary arrives and sees the semen dripping from his ear. She asks if it's hair gel, and scoops it before running it through her hair.
