  • MaryW commented on the word glutamate ototoxicity

    "It turns out that if you dislike the music, it is more damaging to hearing.

    "These data have been around since the early '70s. We're not too sure of all the reasons, but we do know that when you're disliking something, you have a higher stress level. And believe it or not, the biochemistry of the ear changes, and it makes you slightly more susceptible to hearing loss. It's called glutamate ototoxicity."audiologist Marshall Chasin, interviewed by Peter O'Dowd, For Musicians, Hearing Loss Is 'More Common Than One Would Think,' Audiologist Says Here & Now (Apr. 30, 2018)
