This is very interesting according to the research for 7-8 DHF:
- 7,8-dihydroxyflavone mimics the activity of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), and has potent neuroprotective and nootropic properties
This is hope inspiring,because Otonomy is working towards cochlear synaptopathy cure by increasing BDNF according to otonomy research:
https://globenewswire.com/news-rele...n-for-Research-in-Otolaryngology-Meeting.html
"OTO-413 is a proprietary, sustained-exposure formulation of brain-derived neurotropic factor (BDNF) which is a naturally occurring protein involved in neuron growth and repair. Nonclinical studies by Otonomy and other research groups have demonstrated that local administration of BDNF repairs ribbon synapses damaged due to noise trauma or exposure to ototoxic chemicals and restores hearing function. "
So 7-8 DHF works by the same principle increasing BDNF.
So does anybody know if taking this orally will restore some synapses and help cochlear synapthopathy will it reach the cochlea and stay here long enough to do anything?
I can't believe we have natural cure to cochlear synaptopathy and sensorineural hearing loss and no company is yet to take this cheap wildly available cure because of FDA beurocratic bs even if some company where willing to take it we would have to wait 5-10 years for anything to come to fruition we would have to wait that many years while people are suffering and taking their own lifes i have no doubt that cure is out here,but because of corporate greed we will have to wait for it for a long time. I'm really willing to try anything at this point to improve my hearing even though i know it's pretty much impossible task i can't continue living with muffled distorted hearing so i think i will give this a try i will take 2 capsules per day of this formulation
