“…Pre-clinical studies have shown benefit for several molecules that can be obtained from normal healthy diets; some of these agents include beta-carotene, vitamins C and E, and magnesium (Le Prell et al, 2007a; Tamir et al, 2010; Le Prell et al, 2011a; Le Prell et al, 2011b), D-methionine (Campbell et al, 2007; Campbell et al, 2011; Clifford et al, 2011; Claussen et al, 2013; Lo et al, 2013; Rewerska et al, 2013), and N-acetylcysteine (Kopke et al, 2000; Kopke et al, 2005; Bielefeld et al, 2007; Kopke et al, 2007; Clifford et al, 2011). Ultimately, it may indeed be possible to prevent the secondary “spread” of damage that occurs with continued metabolic stress after noise stress.…”
