Don't Lose Your Ability to Understand Speech and Don't Increase Your Chances of Dementia!
Seniors with hearing loss are significantly more likely to develop dementia over time than those who retain their hearing, a study by Johns Hopkins and National Institute on Aging researchers suggests. The findings, the researchers say, could lead to new ways to combat dementia, a condition that affects millions of people worldwide and carries heavy societal burdens. Adequate audition is central to a successful life for all Americans. Hearing disorders greatly affect education, employment, and the well-being of many Americans. The
number of Americans with a hearing loss has doubled during the past 30 years. There are currently thirty-four million people with hearing loss in this country. Hearing loss affects not only the individual with the loss but also those around them. It can hinder a person's performance at work and their relationship with family. Hearing loss can lead to isolation. As indicated above, continued lack of proper auditory stimulation has been linked to dementia. Many people wait far too long to seek help and because of their delay in seeking help, they gradually lose their ability to understand speech even when amplified with hearing aids. So, please do all you can to improve your hearing and help maintain your ability to understand speech and also decrease your chances of dementia.
