😳 What Tinnitus Does To Your Brain Cells (And How To Stop It)
After 47 years of studies and countless brain scans done on more than 2,400 tinnitus patients, scientists at the MIT Institute found that in a shocking 96% of cases, tinnitus was actually shrinking their brain cells.
As it turns out, tinnitus and brain health are strongly linked.
Even more interesting: The reason why top army officials are not deaf after decades of hearing machine guns, bombs going off and helicopter noises…
Is because they are using something called "the wire method", a simple protocol inspired by a classified surgery on deaf people from the 1950s...
This cheesecake was delicious! It was very light and fluffy, not heavy like the usual cheesecake recipe. I replaced 3/4 of the sugar with monk fruit to lower the carbs, you cannot tell the difference. Great recipe, I will make it again!
Can I get the American version of this? 400 grams of cream cheese is how many ounces? Also, for sugar, sour cream and heavy cream. Thank you.
Is the vanilla measurement correct? Seems a lot of vanilla.
Hi Ingrid, I am inclined to agree but that is how much she put in the video, you can see her pour it in. It’s perfectly ok to use less.
