\t\t\t\tIt\u2019s a new year and once again time for some resolutions. Maybe one of them should be a focus on taking back your hearing health \u2014 and thus an important aspect of your life.<\/p>\n
The first thing to focus on is that word health. Your hearing isn\u2019t an isolated part of your body\u2019s work; it\u2019s intertwined with other aspects of your physical well-being. Research has made it clear that a healthier cardiovascular system is part of maintaining better hearing. The hearing system is very dependent on good circulation \u2014 the kind that reaches the very small capillaries that nourish the inner ear \u2014 so, in a classic \u201ckilling two birds with one stone\u201d scenario, getting in better shape will probably improve or protect your hearing.<\/p>\n
Diet also plays a role in hearing health \u2014 in part because dietary patterns play a role in cardiovascular health, which we\u2019ve just covered. But certain nutrients are important to your hearing, such as potassium (which helps regulate inner-ear fluids), folic acid (aids cell growth and circulation), magnesium (healthy blood vessels), zinc (aids cell growth and boosts the immune system), and Omega 3 fats (anti-inflammatory properties and aids brain function).<\/p>\n
Finally, protecting your ears is a good way to promote hearing health. Modern life can be loud \u2014 whether it\u2019s workplace noise, the bombardment of the daily commute, or turning up the volume a little too much on the earbuds. If you work in a high-decibel environment, wear ear protection. And think about whether you need the volume turned up that high when listening to music. Long-term exposure to high-decibel sound is a sure fire way to find hearing loss become part of your life.\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
