Higher Folate Intake Can Reduce Hearing Loss Risk In Men

Increased Folate (Folic Acid) intake can decrease a man's
risk
of hearing loss by 20 percent, according to new research
presented at the 2009 American Academy of Otolaryngology-
Head and Neck Surgery Foundation (AAO-HNSF)
Annual Meeting & OTO EXPO, in San Diego, CA.
The study, which identified 3,559 cases of men with hearing loss,
found that men over the age of 60 who have a high intake of foods
and supplement high in Folate have a 20 percent decrease in risk
of developing hearing loss.
Hearing loss is the most common sensory disorder in the United
States, affecting more than 36 million people. High Folate foods
include leafy vegetables such as spinach, asparagus, turnip greens,
lettuces, dried or fresh beans and peas, fortified cereal products,
sunflower seeds and certain other fruits and vegetables are rich
sources of folate. Brewer's yeast, baker's yeast, liver and liver
products also contain high amounts of Folate.
The authors believe this is the largest study to focus on the
relationship between dietary intake and hearing loss. They used
the most recent figures from the "Health Professionals Follow-up
Study" cohort from years 1986 to 2004, a group consisting of
51,529 male health professionals. They were first enrolled
into this study in 1986 and filled out detailed health and diet
questionnaires every other year. The authors believe their findings
can allow greater education, prevention, and screening efforts.
