CHATTANOOGA, Tenn., Sept. 27, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Are your ears ringing? Ear-related health conditions like tinnitus and hearing loss are increasingly impacting American adults, yet ear health maintenance and protection remain under-prioritized steps of consumers' health and wellness routines. Adults of all ages willingly choose not to prioritize their hearing health despite knowing the risks that neglect can have on both short and long-term ear health, according to a survey commissioned by Lipo-Flavonoid®, the #1 doctor recommended ear health supplement for ringing in the ears, and conducted online by The Harris Poll among over 2,000 American adults*.

Key Points:

Tinnitus is often accompanied by other ear-related ailments, like hearing loss, and impacts an increasing number of adults of all ages.
This heightened onset can be attributed to myriad reasons, from the long-term effects of COVID-19 and pandemic-related stressors to unsafe listening habits in loud environments.
While there is no known cure for tinnitus, there are ways to both mitigate symptoms and prevent its development.
According to the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders, noise-induced hearing loss is one of the most common causes of tinnitus .
