Paternal preconception exercise and sperm epigenetic mechanisms: a systematic review on offspring health

Puntos clave

• To examine how paternal exercise before conception affects the epigenetic mechanisms in sperm and subsequent offspring health.
• Conducted a systematic review of existing literature.
• Evaluated studies on paternal exercise and its effects on sperm epigenetics.
• Analyzed relationships between paternal health behaviors and offspring outcomes.
• Paternal exercise positively influences sperm quality and genetic programming.
• Healthier sperm was linked to better health outcomes for offspring.
• Epigenetic changes in sperm were correlated with improved offspring development.
