These Foods Will Help Fight Hearing Loss Caused By Inflammation

These Foods Will Help Fight Hearing Loss Caused By Inflammation    

In most cases, hearing loss caused by old age is related to an inflammation of the hair cells in the inner ear. These hair cells, when damaged, cannot regenerate, making hearing loss irreversible. Therefore, it is necessary to prevent inflammation which can be done by ingesting certain foods. For example, red wine has an antioxidant that can reduce cholesterol and lower inflammation. Dark chocolate can lower inflammation and improve the immune system. Click here for more information.

Avoiding Noise-Induced Hearing Loss

Avoiding Noise-Induced Hearing Loss    

It Is The Most Common Type Of Hearing Loss    

Hearing loss is more common in older adults, but the truth is that it can develop at any age. Causes can be diseases, medication, injuries, or exposure to loud sounds. Noise-induced hearing loss, also called sensorineural hearing loss, is the damage of the hair cells located in the inner ear. This type of hearing loss could be prevented by following certain guidelines, such as avoiding continued exposure to loud noises, such as clubs, music concerts, and headphones. However, there are differences in noise-induced hearing loss. Sometimes it is difficult to avoid hearing them, such as a sudden noise at the workplace, ambulances or sirens, machinery noises, among others. However, if there is ear damage, it can only be assessed after the event, in other words, when it’s too late. There are ways to avoid exposure to loud noises, such as using foam plugs, moving away from the sound source, or even using special earplugs that block the loud noises but allow a conversation.

New Research Opens The Door For Hearing Loss Recovery In Young Adults

New Research Opens The Door For Hearing Loss Recovery In Young Adults    

Hearing loss occurs to people of older age, but can also happen to a young adult in their 30s. According to a study, in lab rats, it can be caused by the loss of a small mitochondrial protein. This is because reacting oxygen can trigger the loss of these proteins. However, treatment with antioxidants neutralized the reactive oxygen and prevented the loss of the protein. This could lead to a treatment to prevent and even reverse hearing loss at a young age. More details click here.

25% Of Adults Have Some Type Of Gradual Hearing Loss And Are Not Aware Of It

25% Of Adults Have Some Type Of Gradual Hearing Loss And Are Not Aware Of It    

A study revealed that 25% of adults have some degree of hearing loss, but are not aware of it. This is because hearing loss is a condition that shows up gradually, and patients go to the doctor when the condition is severe or evident. In other cases, the patient loses the ability to hear high frequencies, such as the sounds made by the letters S, Z, or TH, and has trouble understanding a conversation. More Information click here.

This Software Evaluates And Personalizes The User’s Hearing Ability

This Software Evaluates And Personalizes The User’s Hearing Ability    

It Compensates The Frequencies Difficult To Hear    

There is an app that analyzes the user’s personal hearing ability and personalizes the sound to compensate it. This is not only oriented to people with gradual hearing loss, but to any person that is unaware that they have a slight hearing loss, which does not interfere with his daily activities nor his communication with other persons. This is great news, considering that 2.5% of the people suffer from untreated hearing loss, and one-third of them are under 35 years. The app first evaluates the frequency perception level of the user. This means, which frequencies are best and are worst heard, similar to an audiologist exam. This personalizes the software for the user. Also, the app can be integrated into several audio platforms. More info click here.

Frequent Use Of Magnetic Resonance Scanners (MRI) Increases The Risk Of Hearing Loss

Frequent Use Of Magnetic Resonance Scanners (MRI) Increases The Risk Of Hearing Loss    

More Powerful Models Have More Magnetism, But Also Generate Higher Noise    

Magnetic resonance imaging has given physicians the possibility of visualizing the brain, spinal cord, and other body parts, allowing an early diagnosis of serious conditions. However, it has a downside for the patient, and it is the noise of the modern scanners can reach a peak sound of 125.7 to 130.7 dB, with an average between 110 to 115 dB. This sound level can result in tinnitus and noise-induced hearing loss. MRI scanners with a higher level of magnetism have a higher noise level. Also, the scanners generate low-frequency sounds, less than 1 kHz, which have less risk of hearing impairment than higher frequency sounds, higher than 4 kHz. In these cases, the suggestion is to wear earplugs to attenuate the sound. More Information click here.
