Today we're going to talk about how to resolve hearing loss with nutrients.

And of course when you do research on this topic, you're going to find this word that keeps popping up

over and over and over as the cause of hearing loss. And that is

is it's idiopathic. What does that mean? It means we don't know. There's two types of

general hearing loss. You have the congenital, which doesn't necessarily mean it's genetic. It could just mean that your

mother had an infection when she was carrying you and that created hearing loss. Or it could

have been an iodine deficiency that she had or alcohol.

Alcohol can severely affect the hearing and many other things involved with the

nerves, but also viruses can do it as well,

Cidal megaloviruses, herpes viruses.

So that is congenital.

Okay, then you have acquired hearing loss.

You might see this term age-related hearing loss, but there's not a lot of

solutions other than hearing AIDS. So the two main things that I see that are

affecting hearing are a group of viruses and also nutritional deficiencies.

So when you go through an acute infection, there's an initial dramatic decrease in zinc and iron.

Both of these are related to a loss of hearing.

And this is why after a chronic infection,

people start developing like ulcers inside the mouth. That is a zinc deficiency. A loss of taste or smell that's also a zinc deficiency.

Or they start craving things weird, like dirt, ice, charcoal, all of those could be an iron deficiency.

Now, viruses can also create other deficiencies too, like a selenium deficiency.

But selenium is fascinating because it's involved in the thyroid helping convert from
