My Clinic: https://www.clearhealthmedical.com Summary A recent study in the American Journal of Lifestyle Medicine explored the protective effect of certain vitamins on hearing loss. The study conducted a meta-analysis of dietary consumption studies to determine the association between vitamin intake and hearing loss.
