Smokers at Greater Risk of Hearing Loss: Study A study involving more than 50,000 participants found that smoking increased the risk of hearing loss.
The eight-year study analyzed data from annual health checkups, which included audio testing performed by a technician as well as a health-related lifestyle questionnaire completed by each participant.
... Researchers examined the effects of smoking status (current, former, and never smokers), the number of cigarettes smoked per day, and the duration of smoking cessation on the extent of hearing loss.
Even after adjusting for factors including occupational noise exposure, researchers found a 1.2 to 1.6 increased risk of hearing loss among current smokers compared with those who had never smoked.
The association was stronger between smoking and high-frequency hearing loss than that of low-frequency hearing loss, and the risk of both types increased with the numbers of cigarettes smoked. The researchers also found that the increased risk of hearing loss decreased within five years after quitting smoking.
"Our study provides strong evidence that smoking is an independent risk factor of hearing loss," said the study's lead author Dr. Huanhuan Hu of Japan's National Center for Global Health and Medicine.
The study was published in Nicotine & Tobacco Research.
Another recent analysis involving almost 150,000 people found that smoking also increases belly fat. While a smoker may weigh less than a non-smoker, scientists at the University of Glasgow found that smoking concentrates fat into the central area of the body, causing a bigger stomach that's in the shape of an apple.
Apple-shaped bodies, as opposed to pear-shaped bodies, are known to increase the risk of many diseases, including heart disease and diabetes.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, smoking is the No. 1 cause of preventable disease and deaths, and accounts for about 1 in 5 deaths.

From cradle to the grave, your brain will process more events than there are stars in our universe. As your body’s “central processing unit,” your brain is in charge of a staggering array of functions, from processing and perceiving stimuli to motor control and memory storage. Habits and beliefs programmed into your mind over a lifetime of responding to experiences are stored in long-term memory, and may cause you to resist new ways of doing things.
However, rapid shifts in n...eural activity can create new associations, habits or beliefs. Call Stuart -07825 599340 stuart@hypnotherapy4freedom.com www.hypnotherapy4freedom.com

Hypnotherapy and the Subconscious Mind Your subconscious mind is powerful The subconscious mind is the most powerful goal achieving tool we have. And yet, your subconscious mind cannot judge; it is not a seat of reasoning or creative consciousness. Judgement occurs in the conscious mind. The subconscious mind is a stimulus-response device. When an environmental signal is perceived, the subconscious mind reflexively activates a previously stored behavioural response—no thinki...ng required. The subconscious mind is a super computer loaded with a database of programmed behaviours. Some of these programs are genetic and most are acquired through our developmental learning. A suggestion placed into the subconscious mind will powerfully produce results. The subconscious mind operates in a world of interior impressions. Its meaningful reality consists of ideas and images of that world. The subconscious world is where the heart is, and its reality is completely subjective. It can never be adequately grasped by objective knowledge or directly observed by another person. No one else can ever give your subconscious mind enough love, nor will there ever be enough comfort food to soothe your subconscious mind. This love and comfort can only come from you.
