Vitamin E 'can restore hearing'
Vitamin E can help restore hearing in people who become deaf suddenly for no known reason, research suggests.
This natural antioxidant has already been hailed as a potential cancer therapy by preventing or slowing damage caused by certain oxygen compounds.
A study of 66 patients with sudden hearing loss, by the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology, found those given vitamin E made the best recovery.
The work was presented at an Ear, Nose and Throat surgery meeting in New York.
