ACEMg (Soundbites) is a neuroprotectant dietary supplement designed to block the initiating biological events in the inner ear leading to sensorineural hearing loss, SNHL, which accounts for more than 90% of all hearing loss. SNHL is so common it is called hearing loss. There is no cure for SNHL. The 24-week OTIS Study aims to validate findings from the previous two-year real-world study demonstrating ACEMg (Soundbites) preserved or improved auditory function (hearing) for 75.3% of participants who used it daily, with most improvement occurring within six months. Additionally, the study aims to assess the potential of ACEMg to relieve tinnitus symptoms in people with tinnitus. SNHL and tinnitus are related, but tinnitus relief was not measured in the previous two-year study. The OTIS study aims to answer two questions. First, does the real-world data demonstrate that hearing loss is stabilized or improved at the end of the test among participants with sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL or inner ear hearing loss) at the beginning? Second, do participants who self-report tinnitus symptoms at the start of their test report reduced symptoms at the end? Participants must be eighteen years of age and older and self-report hearing loss and/or tinnitus. The study is conducted at home using a smartphone app and a web-based assessment and data reporting tool developed for this study. The study starts with a baseline hearing assessment. Participants with tinnitus complete a baseline tinnitus survey. Then, each participant takes ACEMg softgel capsules daily, repeating the hearing assessment and the tinnitus survey after about 12 and 24 weeks. Assessment scores at the beginning of the study will be compared with scores at the end. Participation in the study is free.
