How to Improve Your Hearing, Part 4 with Hope Lanter

This hour, Suzanne Newman talks about hearing loss with Dr. Hope Lanter, lead audiologist and director of partner success at Hear.com. Some health issues can be exacerbated by hearing loss. This segment focuses on the effects of hearing related to health issues, such diabetes, Alzheimer's and dementia. Diabetes creates blood flow issues and can impact the hearing nerve. Regarding Alzheimer's, the brain is a use-it-or-lose-it place. When we stop stimulating the brain with sounds for too long, it can forget how to process them. We see a dramatically faster progression of that when we don't use hearing aids when they're needed.
