It's about the legacy you pass on. The choices you make today shape your partner's pregnancy, your child's lifelong health, and even the health of your grandchildren.
of all fertility issues are male-factor
the increased risk of miscarriage if you drink alcohol in the week leading up to conception
the increased risk of your child developing metabolic disease if you're overweight
You've probably been told sperm is just about numbers. Count, motility, morphology. But here's the truth: a sperm test only gives you half the picture.
Sam, one of our participants, was the picture of health. He lifted, ate well, felt great. But he was deficient in a key nutrient—one that impacts how genes switch on and off, especially the ones tied to brain development, metabolism, and immune function.
Without Upstream, he would never have known. Correcting that deficiency gives his future child a better start in life.
More than half of miscarriages are linked to poor sperm quality
The placenta — the foundation of pregnancy — is built primarily from your DNA
Having a baby is a team sport.
For too long, the burden has been placed almost entirely on women. They make enormous sacrifices with their bodies, their health, and their lifestyles to bring a child into the world.
For men, the ask is smaller—but no less important. Ten weeks of focused change. Ten weeks of stepping into the preseason of fatherhood. Ten weeks to optimize your biology so you can show up fully for your partner and give your child the strongest possible start.
The choices you make today echo through generations. Every decision shapes not just your future, but the future of your bloodline.
Your weight, nutrition, and daily habits can impact your child's risk of disease and metabolic disorders throughout their lifetime.
Your stress levels and mental health can impact how resilient your child will be to stress and anxiety for life.
Your sperm health can influence whether your partner may face pre-eclampsia or gestational diabetes during pregnancy.
Your exposures today ripple forward—to your children, your grandchildren, and beyond. Your legacy starts now.
This isn't about fear. It's about opportunity.
The opportunity to give your partner the healthiest pregnancy possible.
The opportunity to give your child the strongest start in life.
The opportunity to take ownership of your role as a father before fatherhood even begins.
Your fertility. Their health.
That's the power you hold.
