Huanhuan Hu, Ph.D., of the Japanese National Center for Global Health and Medicine, is the author of the lead study, which he said:

“Thanks to the large sample size of participants, the long follow-up period and the objective assessment of hearing loss, our study provides compelling evidence that tobacco use is a risk factor for hearing loss”.

From Cai Salud, we know that ear specialists tell us, cigarette smoke could affect the flow of the small vessels in the ear, preventing oxygen from reaching them and causing them to malfunction.
