Can hearing aids prevent memory loss?
SAN ANTONIO โ Social isolation is a frequent consequence of hearing loss. Consumer Reports reveals some important information about how hearing aids may be associated with a smaller risk of cognitive decline. The study found that older people who got a hearing aid within three years of receiving a diagnosis of hearing loss had a lower rate of dementia, depression, and falls than people who didnโt get a hearing device. If youโre worried about how hearing aids look, keep in mind that those clunky beige ones arenโt your only option. Plus, with people sporting Bluetooth earphones, it would be hard to tell that yours is a hearing aid!
