What to do to Combat Hearing Loss

Today's show talks about hearing loss. Its 7 minutes long. If the captions DOES NOT WORK, Then go to the website the video will come up below it on the right it will say SUBTITLES. Press on it and the captions will appear.

What do you think about this video? I didn't like comments what the audiologist said about " If you do not take care of your hearing loss you will end up with dementia."
" Your brain will shut down". I honestly dont think that is true because studies and research never said that before.

Hi Annie! The audiologist said " If you do not take care of your hearing loss you will end up with dementia."

" Your brain will shut down".

I honestly dont think that is true because studies and research never said that before.

Dani, I did notice that statement and was a bit startled. I did a search and found this article http://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/news/media/releases/hearing_loss_and_dementia_linked_in_study

these findings may or may not prove that not treating hearing loss will lead to dementia.

Thanks for answering my question.

All the best with your continuing college education.
