Is it actually safe to ingest? For the most part, yes, the components that make up semen are safe to ingest. Swallowed semen is digested in the same way as food. However, in very rare circumstances, some people might discover that they're allergic to semen.

What exactly is semen? Semen is a “viscous, creamy, slightly yellowish or greyish” substance made up of spermatozoa — commonly known as sperm — and a fluid called seminal plasma. In other words, semen contains two separate components: the sperm and the fluid. Sperm — about 1 to 5 percent of the semen — are the tadpole-like reproductive cells that contain half of the genetic information to create human offspring. The seminal plasma fluid, which is about 80 percent water, makes up the rest. Is it actually safe to ingest? For the most part, yes, the components that make up semen are safe to ingest. Swallowed semen is digested in the same way as food. However, in very rare circumstances, some people might discover that they’re allergic to semen. This is also known as human seminal plasma hypersensitivity (HSP). Though rare, this sensitivity is something to be aware of in case you find yourself experiencing an allergic reaction. Is it as protein rich as everyone says? Despite its reputation for being a rich source of protein, you would likely have to consume gallons of semen to see any dietary health benefits. Although the amount of ejaculate varies from person to person — depending on a variety of factors, such as age and health — protein is only a small part. It’s about one-twentieth of the entire fluid. What else is in semen? Along with the sperm, protein, and water mentioned above, semen also contains a variety of other components, including: sugar, both fructose and glucose

sodium

citrate

zinc

chloride

calcium

lactic acid

magnesium

potassium

urea

If it has actual nutrients, does that mean it has calories? Yes, but not as many as you might think. Contrary to popular belief, sperm isn’t highly caloric. Each teaspoon of ejaculate — the average amount of ejaculate produced at one time — is around five to seven calories, which is about the same as a stick of gum. What does it taste like? There’s no single description of what semen tastes like because it can vary from person to person. To some, it can taste bitter and salty, while for others, it can taste sugary sweet. Although there isn’t a direct link proving that a person’s diet directly affects the taste of their sperm, there’s some anecdotal evidence. There are a few foods that could make semen taste more palatable, or less acidic, such as: celery

parsley

What does it smell like? Similar to taste, the smell of semen can vary quite a lot depending on circumstances like diet, health, and hygiene. In many situations, semen can smell like bleach or other household cleaners. This has to do with its makeup of ingredients, in order to provide a pH level where the sperm can thrive. Unlike the vagina, which naturally skews more acidic, semen tends to be neutral or slightly alkaline. It stays around 7.26 to 8.40 on the pH scale — which ranges from 0, highly acidic, to 14, highly alkaline. On the other hand, if semen smells musky or fishy, this could be due to outside factors. Like taste, a more putrid smell could be attributed to diet, in the same way that asparagus affects the scent of urine. Sweat and dried pee can also make it smell bitter. Is it really a mood booster? Potentially! There’s some research that shows there could be natural antidepressant properties in semen. These may include: endorphins

estrone

prolactin

oxytocin

thyrotropin-releasing hormone

serotonin A 2002 study conducted by the State University of New York at Albany surveyed 293 college-age females to see if exposure to semen, without the use of outside condoms worn on the penis, affected their overall mood. According to the survey, those who were directly exposed to semen showed significantly better mood and fewer symptoms of depression. However, this study should be taken with a grain of salt. What about stress relief? In the same vein as the studies that show evidence for the natural antidepressant properties of semen, some believe it could also have stress-relieving properties. This claim is due to the mood-boosting properties of oxytocin and progesterone hormones, the both of which are found in semen. It’s also thought that vitamin C and other antioxidants found in semen may help reduce sperm impairment by fighting oxidative stress within semen. Are there any other health benefits? Maybe. Similarly to how some studies have shown mood-lifting and anxiety-reducing benefits, semen exposure could help with pregnancy health. A 2003 case-controlled study found that females who were exposed to sperm for longer periods, both before and during pregnancy, were less likely to develop preeclampsia, a rare pregnancy complication. However, this is only one study, and more research is needed to support these findings.

Why do some people get tired afterward? Semen contains melatonin, the natural hormone your body releases to regulate sleep cycles. This may explain why some people feel tired after swallowing semen or being exposed to it during intercourse. There hasn’t been any research on this, so there’s no way to know for sure. I heard some people are allergic — is this true? Yes, but it’s extremely rare. Although there isn’t a lot of hard data, semen allergies may affect up to 40,000 females in the United States. That’s a small percentage of the nearly 160,000,000 females living in the U.S. Symptoms of a semen allergy usually show up 20 to 30 minutes after contact or ingestion and may include: pain

itching

redness

swelling

hives

difficulty breathing Seek immediate medical attention if you have trouble breathing or experience other signs of a severe allergic reaction. Symptoms of allergy will likely vary from one person to the next, as will the duration of symptoms. See a doctor or other healthcare provider if your symptoms persist or worsen.
