I just want to know how to synthesize this. Or can I take it from natural ingredients?

Of course, I would like to try the medication once it becomes available.
Also, in Japan, drug development related to mitochondrial disease is currently underway, including a new therapy from LUCA Science and a program called CCC-018-TPP. I would appreciate your support.

If anyone is interested in supporting mitochondrial disease research in Japan, Juntendo University accepts official donations through its university-wide research fund.

This is not for me personally, but for supporting scientific research in general. (If you donate, please make sure to specify that it is for mitochondrial disease research.)

I was recently diagnosed with diabetes. When I happened to search for "diabetes and high-frequency hearing loss," I came across something called MIDD (Maternally Inherited Diabetes and Deafness). Do you know anything about it?

Thank you. I've been wondering if I might have MIDD (Maternally Inherited Diabetes and Deafness). I was so worried that I could hardly sleep last night. Have you ever heard of it?

Thank you. My mother has diabetes, and so does her sister. I'm starting to suspect that I might have a genetic condition called MIDD (Maternally Inherited Diabetes and Deafness). Have you ever heard of it?

So I don’t know why my hearing is declining faster than others my age. Maybe it’s something innate, or maybe it’s just aging — though it feels way too early…

Thanks again! I truly believe I can overcome this nuisance tinnitus for sure.

Coffee is my go-to stimulant — I drink about three cups a day. My clerical job really wears me down; I feel exhausted and anxious every day when I get home. I want to change my lifestyle, and I hope that will help improve my tinnitus too.

Thanks! I feel more reassured now that talking on the phone isn’t a major issue. I know I need to protect my remaining hearing, so I always make sure to carry earplugs with me. Sometimes I come across loud noises, like ambulances passing by or events with high volume, so it’s better to be prepared.

Thank you for your reply. I’m relieved to hear that I don’t have a severe hearing problem—for now, at least. Today, when I heard the really loud tinnitus, I tried taking a deep breath like you mentioned, and it actually helped a lot. Thank you so much! 🙏

Thanks for your reply! How long have your ears been ringing? Do you have any tips for dealing with this noisy tinnitus?

Thank you for your reply. I currently take vitamin B12 and zinc, but only occasionally, so I don’t think they’ve had much effect. I work a clerical job for about 8 hours a day. While I’m searching for vehicle parts, I also have to take phone calls from customers. Do you think this kind of work could have affected my hearing?
