A scientific study has concluded that the quality of food an individual consumes affects their likelihood of developing tinnitus. According to the study, published in the American Journal of Epidemiology, which specializes in epidemiology, a research team studied the health status of more than 113,000 women, tracking the dietary patterns of the study participants over four years. During the study period, it was found that about 23,000 participants developed chronic tinnitus, and it was determined that adhering to specific dietary patterns does not necessarily help treat the problem of ringing in the ears, but there are certain foods that help treat the condition. Researchers concluded that consuming a large amount of fruits reduces the likelihood of developing tinnitus by 19%, while excessive consumption of whole grains and sugar-sweetened beverages is associated with an increased risk of the problem by 12-26%. The researchers confirmed that the results could help provide scientific information to develop preventive strategies to reduce the likelihood of developing tinnitus disease.
