Diet and hearing loss: An interventional trial found that dietary changes may slow or even reverse the loss of hearing.
This is the last in a three-video series on hearing loss. If you missed the first two, see Age-Related Hearing Loss Is Preventable—What Causes It? (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/age-related-hearing-loss-is-preventable-what-causes-it) and The Supplement Shown to Slow Age-Related Hearing Loss (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/the-supplement-shown-to-slow-age-related-hearing-loss).

I love this channel!
🥦🍆🍅🥬🥕🍒🍋🥬🥦
I hear you doc! 🙂
Wild guess: whole food plant based
Good stuff, Doc!! tnx
I love hearing this (pun intended)! 😃🍎🥬🥕🫐
You can say that again!
Thank you doctor !!!
Just once, wouldn't it be funny if Dr. Greger says the diet is carnivore or something similar? Imagine the comments 🙂
👍 Whole food plant based for the environment and health; vegan for the victims!
Maybe people with high cholesterol tend to live more wreckless lives like eating junk and listening to loud music. Maybe people who are more health conscious tend to not only eat better but also take care of their hearing like listening to less loud music.
Excellent presentation , many thanks to you.
Doing interventional dietary research on mental health patients sounds ethically problematic.
It's going to be interested to find out over time if the carnivore diet causes or contributes to age-related hearing loss.
soooo……stop eating saturated fat…….particularly dead animal saturated fat……….
When your older and you have a nagging wife, you prefer to have hearin loss 😊😅
From the Finnish study: "A large part of the saturated fat was replaced by soy
bean oil in skim milk, and a special type of
margarine, rich in unsaturated fat, replaced
the butter. In the other hospital, Kellokoski,
here called Hospital K, the usual Finnish diet
of large quantities of whole milk and butter
was maintained. "
No other details were provided about the different diets or differences in the patient populations. Did the patients gain or lose weight on the two diets? Were there differences in overall calorie intake? These questions are crucial. I would not be surprised if the patients having to drink "soybean oil in skim milk" and eat "margarine" ended up eating a lot less. I know I would. In many other studies weight gain or loss is a crucial, often overriding factor when you are talking about the effects of diet on metabolic health. For example, a fat person who eats 800 calories per day of Twinkies will show dramatic improvements in their cardiovascular risk factors. This is why details matter. The Finnish study is 100% useless without such details.
Comment for algorithm
Wow! This is news to me.
Fascinating! Thank you <3
This is so interesting, I felt I was losing my hearing up to three years ago when I switched to a WFPB oil-free diet, since then my health and my hearing have definitely improved, now I listen to YT and the radio on quite a low volume where I used to have the volume at maximum.
Complete and utter BS
What about tinnitus?
The tiny arteries blocking is the reason for recto dysfunction, a leading indicator to heart issues
It's hard to comprehend what you are saying

But not hair loss? 🤣
