They say that an apple a day keeps the doctor away \u2013 and, in fact, an apple a day may actually help to prevent hearing loss, but we\u2019ll get to that in a moment. Right now, let\u2019s address the topic at hand, namely that a glass of red wine a day may actually help to protect your precious hearing.<\/p>\n

According to a study published in Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery<\/i>, resveratrol \u2013 an antioxidant that is essential in combatting the effects of aging and disease \u2013 may also help to ward off hearing loss. In an experiment involving two groups of rats that were exposed to loud noise, the group that was given resveratrol supplements experienced significantly less hearing loss and a 90 percent reduction in the factors that can contribute to hearing loss<\/a>, including free radical formation, than the group that was not given resveratrol supplements.<\/p>\n

While this experiment was conducted on rats, study lead author Michael D. Seidman, MD, director of the division of otologic\/neurotologic surgery at the Henry Ford Health System, believes that the research can probably be applied to humans, as well.<\/p>\n

Resveratrol can be found in grapes, peanuts, and \u2013 you guessed it \u2013 red wine. So it is possible that, alongside the many other known benefits of drinking a glass of red wine each evening, you can add preventing hearing loss to the list<\/p>\n

Other Foods That May Help to Prevent Hearing Loss<\/h3>\n

That leads us back to apples and other foods that are rich in antioxidants. Apples contain quercetin, an antioxidant that is essential in the fight against free radicals. The connection between free radicals and hearing loss was first demonstrated in a study led by Dr. Seidman in the mid-2000s. So, indeed, an apple a day may keep the doctor \u2013 and hearing loss \u2013 away.<\/p>\n

Other foods that are rich in antioxidants \u2013 broccoli, spinach, asparagus, lentils, dried beans, eggs, bananas, liver, and nuts \u2013 can also be useful in the fight against free radicals.<\/p>\n

With or without research studies, common sense dictates that a healthy diet is fundamental to a healthy body. We truly are what we eat. The healthier your body, the more likely you are to preserve your valuable senses \u2013 including your hearing \u2013 over the long term.<\/p>\n
