That is an open question. Tinnitus is NOT well understood. It does have fairly high correlation with SNHL, which IS pretty well understood as a matter of cochlear hair cell destruction. So there is a lot of optimism that if we can treat the latter, the former will go away, but there may be other components to it in the central nervous system. It certainly would only help to fix SNHL in trying to treat tinnitus.
- Terry_Roll 5y agoTrue, talking to a hearing specialist, they didnt know histidine can reduce hearing loss, now whether this is due to histidine being a precursor for histamine which can help white blood cells move through tissue, or because it can play its part in remyelinating nerves isnt clear. Manganese could also play a part because its the most abundant metal in hair samples which might translate to the hairs in the ear. However to get it there, you'll need to increase your cysteine intake, but we dont absorb it easily through the gut so we have to use N Acetyl Cysteine... SO many chemical variables....
