Kelley stated that teen hearing loss could be noise-induced hearing loss \u201cdue in part to loud music, and earbuds and headphones.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>All ages can protect their hearing by avoiding loud, long-lasting sounds. Permanent hearing loss can be caused by loud music, leaf blowers, mowers, and other loud sounds. Reducing the amount of time you\u2019re exposed to loud noise, and using ear protection like ear plugs or muffs, can help protect your hearing and decrease the amount of hearing you might lose as you age.<\/p>\n<p>Research has shown that certain foods, supplements, and other substances may help to reduce noise exposure and delay hearing loss.<\/p>\n<h2>The use of nutrients may help to reduce hearing loss, whether it is noise-induced or aging-related.<\/h2>\n<p>Although hearing loss can be expected with age, it is possible to mitigate the danger by modifying certain factors.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere are several lines of evidence that suggest that dietary intake of certain nutrients is related to the risk of hearing loss,\u201d In an email to The Epoch Times, Dr. Sharon Curhan stated this.

The results revealed that the combination of vitamins A and C with E plus magnesium prevented nearly 80 percent noise-induced hearing loss in guineapigs.<\/p>\n<p>The same combination of magnesium and antioxidants was also tested in a <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/22122960\/\">Study of Swedish military personnel<\/a> Service-related noise exposure. Although the results were encouraging, no conclusions were made regarding the protection of the ears. An additional <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/27990155\/\">Study on Humans<\/a> It was done. Participants received the same four micronutrients before exposure to noise. However, the supplement didn&#8217;t have any effect noise-induced changes of hearing.<\/p>\n<p>Folic acid might also help prevent hearing loss. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC4314232\/\">Studies\u00a0have linked hearing loss<\/a> to\u00a0folate deficiency and high levels of <a href=\"https:\/\/my.clevelandclinic.org\/health\/articles\/21527-homocysteine#:~:text=Homocysteine%20is%20an%20amino%20acid,dementia%2C%20heart%20disease%20and%20stroke.\">homocysteine<\/a>An amino acid. Folate and vitamins B12, B6, along with vitamin B12 and B6, help to break down homocysteine. This allows your body to make other chemicals. Homocysteine highs can also indicate a vitamin deficiency, which could increase your risk for heart disease, stroke, dementia, and other health problems such as cardiovascular disease.<\/p>\n<p>Research suggests that folate supplementation could potentially lower your risk of hearing loss as you age.<\/p>\n<p>The arsenal of tools against hearing loss includes Omega-3 fatty acid. A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC4196487\/\">2014 Study<\/a> Curhan and her associates found that increased intake of omega-3 polyunsaturated fat acids and regular fish consumption are linked to a lower risk for hearing loss. Other studies have confirmed the protective role of omega-3 fatty acid in preventing hearing loss, including the Brazilian study.<\/p>\n<h2>Healthy Eating<\/h2>\n<p>Curhan said that although supplements are readily available over-the counter, Curhan believes there is no current way to get them. \u201cinsufficient evidence\u201d To prevent hearing loss, she will recommend certain supplements. Foods rich in nutrients are the best way to ensure hearing protection.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe found that eating an overall healthy diet, such as a diet that resembles the Mediterranean diet or the DASH diet, is associated with a lower risk of hearing loss,\u201d She spoke.<\/p>\n<p>What can you eat to keep your ears and hear healthy?<\/p>\n<h3>Vitamin A-rich foods, including:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Green, leafy green vegetables<\/li>\n<li>Vegetables in orange and yellow<\/li>\n<li>Red bell pepper<\/li>\n<li>Milk<\/li>\n<li>Beef liver<\/li>\n<li>Fish oil<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>The following foods are rich in vitamin C:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Red pepper<\/li>\n<li>Citrus fruit<\/li>\n<li>Kiwi fruit<\/li>\n<li>Strawberries<\/li>\n<li>Broccoli<\/li>\n<li>Cantaloupe<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Vitamin E-rich foods, such as:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Wheat germ oil<\/li>\n<li>Almonds<\/li>\n<li>Sunflower seeds<\/li>\n<li>Pine nuts<\/li>\n<li>Avocado<\/li>\n<li>Peanut butter<\/li>\n<li>Fish<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theepochtimes.com\/t-magnesium\">Magnesium<\/a> These foods can be found:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Pumpkin seeds<\/li>\n<li>Almonds<\/li>\n<li>Spinach<\/li>\n<li>Cashews<\/li>\n<li>Peanuts<\/li>\n<li>Black beans<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>These items will provide your folate:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Dark green, leafy vegetables<\/li>\n<li>Beans<\/li>\n<li>Peanuts<\/li>\n<li>Sunflower seeds<\/li>\n<li>Fresh fruits, fruit juices<\/li>\n<li>Whole grains<\/li>\n<li>Liver<\/li>\n<li>Seafood<\/li>\n<li>Eggs<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Omega-3 fatty acid:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Fish<\/li>\n<li>Whole grains<\/li>\n<li>Nuts<\/li>\n<li>Leafy green vegetables<\/li>\n<li>Oils (e.g. oils (e.g. canola. flaxseed. cod liver).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Research suggests that, in addition to lifestyle changes and what we eat, our ability to prevent or slow down aging may be affected by how we eat. hearing loss\u2014but what exactly do we need to eat to protect our hearing?
