Hi! While it is true that diet has a role to play in sperm quality it is certainly not the only factor.There are other causes like structural defects of the sperms, varicocele, genital tract infection, antisperm antibodies,partial obstruction of sperm ducts and
hormonal defects. He needs to get a hormonal evaluation, ultrasound of scrotum, antisperm antibody test etc. Let me also add that in quite a few cases one is not able to find a cause even after extensive investigation. In these cases empiric therapy is given ( antioxidant combination, kallikrein etc) with variable benefit. Nowadays with advances in Assisted Reproductive Techniques (ART) we have a potent weapon to fight this disorder. All the best!

hello
These treatments are of doubtful value. Please get a coloured Doppler scan of scrotum to see if he has varicocele
