There have been numerous videos on the Internet talking about how binaural beats or brainwave tones can help people with gynecomastia reduce their man boobs and keep them at bay for good. Videos explain that with the right amount of brainwaves that get in the body through the ears, the body can automatically channel the ability to reduce fat in the chest area, and to ultimately eliminate man boobs. They further state that the effects of this treatment can be attained within a few months even without the need for proper diet and exercise, or any other form of medication.
This is, again, simply one of those Internet hoaxes that millions of people around the world fall for. Of course, for those who are suffering from the condition known as gynecomastia or the hormonal imbalance that causes the formation of breasts in men, a quick and efficient solution is something that is dreamed about. However, since the condition is more than just a matter of body fat and is more of a complex set of problems and imbalances in the human body, simply listening to sound waves in order to solve everything seems to be a weird and laughable proposal. Doctors would recommend seeking professional help if men suspect that they may have man boobs, and have these treated through exercise, diet, as well as nutritional and hormonal supplements to keep everything in the body balanced.
To completely shut the idea of binaural beats as a form of man boobs solution, let us try to understand what it really is about. Binaural beats, discovered by the physicist Heinrich Wilhelm Dove in 1839, are two signals with two different frequencies that if presented separately to a person, with one frequency on each ear, the brain would detect a variation between the two frequencies and would try to balance or harmonize the two. When this happens, the two frequencies seem to combine in the mind of the person hearing it, forming a third beat, which is now called as the binaural beat.
There have been many different studies carried out on this topic which have proven that when binaural beats are introduced to people, their brains begin to resonate in tune with those beats. When the brain follows the binaural beat, this is now called as the Frequency Following Response. This response was thoroughly tested way back in 1973 at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City by the biophysicist Gerald Oster.
The end result of binaural beats includes better abilities in concentrating, relaxing, and calming the nervous system. Since binaural beats have been proven to be extremely effective when it comes to putting people in a peaceful state, it would be difficult to imagine if it is related to curing what is considered to be an extremely physical condition such as man boobs. From this context we can determine that binaural beats can definitely help with loosening one’s mental stresses, but never the physical ones. If you really wish to find a cure for gynecomastia, go to a doctor and talk to them about your options.
