This is quite interesting, I’d be willing to try but I’m trying to figure out it’s “ingredients”, my brain could just be moving slow and I’m missing it.

Nevermind I figured it out. Antioxidants A, C, E, and magnesium.

@ErikaS yeah I definitely want to do some more reading into it when I get the motivation lol. But considering it was developed by a university there should be research some where.

@ErikaS Considering 25% of people who are 60 years or older have tinnitus due to natural hearing loss over time is concerning. Like how bad will my tinnitus be at 60.

I feel pretty comfortable saying you and I will probably not even have to worry about “how bad tinnitus will be” when we are 60. Better days and science ahead, friend!

Here is the link to an associated study if anyone is interested: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/51378372_Free_radical_scavengers_vitamins_A_C_and_E_plus_magnesium_reduce_noise_trauma

I noticed the animals were given the different ingredients in mg/kg... so I wonder whether purchasing the individual supplements & then dosing based on weight would be effective?

I've been taking these supplements off & on, but have been afraid to take larger doses because of what I've read about potential toxic effects (esp since I'm sensitive to drugs/supplements).

@ErikaS Love the optimism and hope you are right! For some reason I feel we need more hope than just the Shore device.

@MadeleineHope Thanks for the research paper! I'm going to read into it when I get some motivation lol. I use to be a big reader, would spend alot of time in the coffee shop reading science. Reading isn't as enjoyable anymore maybe because I no longer drink coffee.

@Ryan Scott there will be more than her device when we are 60 I believe! I honestly think we are 10-15 years away from brain chips that will be able to "trouble shoot" these neurological issues. But I also agree with you that we have to protect our hearing even more so.

Why aren t you drinkin coffee anymore @Ryan Scott ? I am drinkin decaff cause of my T - it s quite good

@ErikaS in Germany we say: your word in god s ear

@brixenbrixen One day a couple hours after drinking a coffee while working I had the worse T spike ever. They also had a low pressure front coming in idk maybe that caused it but I was like alright caffeine is out for me lol.

I returned to drinking coffee after stopping for first 3 months. I don't think it has any effect on my T. One of my joys of life, decided to not let T take that away anymore. It took almost everything else.

@gameover Idk I guess I feel like tinnitus has already took everything I love from me. My career, fishing, boat rides. So I guess my perspective is what's 1 more thing lol.

Well, I did not see coffee having impact on T, so decided might as well drink it.
