Harvard Scientists Discover a Shocking New Cause of Ear Ringing, and It’s Not What You Think…
Are you struggling with constant ear ringing, buzzing, hissing, whistling, roaring, humming, or clicking sounds?
Turns out, in 2024, scientists at Harvard, the University of Zurich, and the American Tinnitus Association discovered that the real cause behind tinnitus is a chemical imbalance within the brain's auditory region.
Turns out, in 2024, scientists at Harvard, the University of Zurich, and the American Tinnitus Association discovered that the real cause behind tinnitus is a chemical imbalance within the brain's auditory region.
Scientists found out that people with ear ringing had significantly lower levels of a calming chemical called GABA in the part of the brain that’s responsible for hearing, compared to the group with no ear ringing.
When there's not enough GABA, your brain gets stuck in overdrive and starts releasing another chemical called Glutamate in excess quantities.
When there’s too much Glutamate and not enough GABA, the part of your brain that helps you hear becomes unable to control all the excess activity.
Scientists confirmed the more excess Glutamate you have in your brain, the more intense the ear ringing sound you hear.
