Audifort Ingredients: The Full Label, Explained
Audifort lists 23 active ingredients: chromium on its own line and a 200 mg proprietary blend of 22 plant extracts and amino acids. I've grouped them by the job each one does in the formula and added the research that exists for each.
The supplement facts panel
This is the label as printed on the bottle. One serving is 1 ml (one full dropper), and a bottle holds 30 servings.
| Line on the label | Amount per serving |
|---|---|
| Chromium (as chromium picolinate) | 0.7 mcg (2% of the daily value) |
| Proprietary blend | 200 mg |
The blend contains maca root, grape seed, guarana seed, African mango seed, eleuthero (Eleutherococcus senticosus) root, astragalus root, green tea leaf, gymnema leaf, coleus forskohlii root, capsicum fruit, grapefruit fruit, Panax ginseng, raspberry ketones, L-glutamine, L-tyrosine, L-arginine, beta-alanine, monoammonium glycyrrhizinate (from licorice), GABA, L-ornithine, L-tryptophan and L-carnitine.
The other ingredients are glycerin, water, organic lemon extract, stevia, xylitol, sodium benzoate, potassium sorbate, citric acid and natural flavors. There is no alcohol on the list, which some liquid extracts use, and the sweetness comes from stevia and xylitol rather than sugar.
A proprietary blend means the company lists what is in it but not how much of each. With 22 ingredients sharing 200 mg, each one is present in a small amount. That is normal for this kind of formula, but it means the doses can't be lined up against the studies below.
Antioxidant group: grape seed, green tea, Panax ginseng, astragalus
The inner ear is one of the most energy-hungry tissues in the body, and its hair cells are easily damaged by oxidative stress from loud noise, some medications and age. Researchers have looked at antioxidants for years as a way to protect those cells. This is the part of Audifort most directly aimed at the ear.
Panax ginseng has the most interesting human data of the group. In a randomized pilot study from Korea, 61 people with chronic tinnitus took either Korean red ginseng or ginkgo for four weeks, and the group on 3,000 mg of ginseng a day improved on the Tinnitus Handicap Inventory and on mental health scores. A separate trial in Iranian textile workers found that 200 mg of ginseng a day reduced the temporary hearing dip after a noisy shift. Both trials used far more ginseng than a share of a 200 mg blend, so read them as support for the ingredient choice. The NCCIH page on Asian ginseng covers its general safety.
Grape seed extract is rich in proanthocyanidins, a family of strong plant antioxidants. The sales page says these "protect the ear." The hearing research so far is in cells and animals. The NCCIH grape seed extract page notes it is generally well tolerated.
Green tea brings EGCG, its main catechin. In lab studies EGCG protected inner-ear hair cells from damage caused by cisplatin, a chemotherapy drug known to harm hearing, and a Taiwanese study of adults over 55 found that regular oolong tea drinkers scored better on a central hearing test. Green tea also supplies a little caffeine.
Astragalus is a staple of traditional Chinese medicine, often used in formulas for hearing loss. Recent animal research has looked at one of its compounds protecting cochlear hair cells, but human hearing studies are lacking.
Circulation group: L-arginine, capsicum, coleus forskohlii
The cochlea gets its blood from a single small artery, so anything that affects blood flow can affect the ear. L-arginine is the raw material the body uses to make nitric oxide, which relaxes blood vessels. In animal studies, blocking nitric oxide cut blood flow to the cochlea and an L-arginine infusion brought it back.
Capsicum (the pepper family that includes cayenne) supplies capsaicin. The sales page says it "supports a healthy inflammatory response." Capsaicin works on the TRPV1 receptor, which is studied in pain, inflammation and circulation.
Coleus forskohlii contains forskolin, which raises a signaling molecule called cAMP. It has been studied for blood pressure and weight, and much less for anything ear-related.
Calm and sleep group: GABA, L-tryptophan, L-glutamine
People who live with ringing ears know the stress and poor sleep that come with it. This group targets that side.
GABA is the brain's main calming messenger, and here the research link to tinnitus is real. A 2015 study in the Journal of Neuroscience used brain scans to show that people with tinnitus had lower GABA levels in the auditory cortex than matched people without it. Whether GABA taken by mouth reaches the brain is still debated, but it is a popular relaxation supplement and the sales page sells it on exactly that: "supports relaxation and relieves anxiety."
L-tryptophan is the amino acid the body turns into serotonin and then melatonin, which is why it is used for mood and sleep. L-glutamine is the most common amino acid in the blood and a precursor of both glutamate and GABA.
Energy group: maca, guarana, eleuthero, L-tyrosine, L-carnitine, beta-alanine
Maca is a Peruvian root used for energy and mood; in a 12-week Peruvian trial, maca extract improved quality of life scores compared with placebo and was well tolerated. Guarana is a natural source of caffeine; a 2023 meta-analysis found it made people slightly faster on thinking tasks without hurting accuracy. Eleuthero, sometimes called Siberian ginseng, is a classic adaptogen; an Italian trial in adults over 65 found better social functioning scores after four weeks. L-tyrosine feeds dopamine and noradrenaline, L-carnitine helps cells burn fat for energy, and beta-alanine is best known from sports supplements.
These ingredients connect to the "cognitive clarity" part of the sales pitch. Straining to hear is tiring, and many buyers want to feel sharper as well as hear better.
Metabolic group: gymnema, chromium, African mango, grapefruit, raspberry ketones, L-ornithine, licorice
Gymnema has the strongest human evidence in this group: a 2021 meta-analysis found it lowered fasting blood sugar and HbA1c in people with type 2 diabetes. That ties back to hearing, since people with diabetes are about twice as likely to have hearing loss. Chromium helps insulin do its job; the 0.7 mcg here is a small top-up (2% of the daily value).
African mango and raspberry ketones are better known from weight-management formulas, and grapefruit extract and L-ornithine play supporting roles. The licorice compound, monoammonium glycyrrhizinate, adds sweetness and is studied for soothing effects. Large daily doses of licorice raise blood pressure, but the amount in a share of this blend is very small.
How the formula compares
Most hearing supplements are built on a few vitamins and minerals (zinc, magnesium, B12) or on ginkgo. Audifort takes a different road with a broad herbal and amino acid blend. That has a real upside: you get antioxidants, circulation support, calming ingredients and energy herbs from one dropper. The trade-off is that each ingredient is present at a modest amount. If you want to see how it stacks up against the best-known drugstore option, read Audifort vs Lipo-Flavonoid.
