Globally, sperm count and overall fertility dropped more than 50% since the 1950s, and the decline appears to be accelerating. One theory: The toxins that leach from plastics may be partly to blame.

A Netflix documentary, “The Plastic Detox,” followed five couples with unexplained infertility for three months while they reduced levels of plastic in their homes. While not a scientific study, the men’s sperm count rose and levels of certain plastics in the blood and urine of each couple dropped during the intervention. Several couples later went on to conceive. However, the link between reducing plastics and improving fertility remains to be proven.

CNN’s Sandee LaMotte speaks to one of those couples, Eric and Julie Isaac, about their journey to rid their lives of plastics.

自20世纪50年代以来，全球精子数量和整体生育率下降了50%以上，而且这种下降趋势似乎还在加速。一种理论认为：塑料渗出的毒素可能是部分原因。

Netflix纪录片《塑料排毒》跟踪拍摄了五对不明原因不孕的夫妇，在三个月的时间里，他们减少了家中的塑料用量。虽然这并非一项科学研究，但干预期间，男性的精子数量有所增加，每对夫妇血液和尿液中某些塑料的含量也有所下降。之后，几对夫妇成功怀孕。然而，减少塑料用量与提高生育能力之间的联系仍有待证实。

CNN 的 Sandee LaMotte 采访了其中一对夫妇 Eric 和 Julie Isaac，了解他们如何摆脱生活中的塑料制品。
