Scientists are increasingly recognizing the importance of good hearing for brain health. Poor hearing has more of an impact than smoking, high blood pressure, and lack of exercise in terms of modifiable risk factors for developing dementia. One such investigation found that preventing or treating hearing loss in middle age has the potential to cut the likelihood of developing dementia by 10% years down the road.<\/p>\n

Hearing loss has also, according to this article, contributed to social isolation which is a risk factor for Alzheimer\u2019s disease and forms of dementia. Studies have found that even the mildest loss of hearing can take a toll on the brain. So, let\u2019s commit to cleaning those ears!!!<\/p>\n
