Diabetes and Hearing Loss

Hearing Aids and Diabetes

For many people the beginning of the New Year leaves them slightly overweight after eating and drinking during the festivities. Weight management is a concern for lots of people throughout the year and obesity is linked to chronic health conditions like diabetes. Letting go of control over your lifestyle can lead to health problems multiplying and diabetes can lead to hearing loss too. A great goal for 2023 is self-discipline and if you have already crossed the line with your health and are suffering from hearing loss then getting your hearing checked by a good, professional audiologist like Clarisound is a good way to start the New Year.

Hearing Concerns

Scientific studies tell us what is wrong with our health and why using data. Scientists find the same patterns and sometimes new ones as they conduct their research. A recent study in Singapore has confirmed that diabetes is associated with sensorineural hearing loss in the elderly and is especially associated with high-frequency hearing loss. Previous studies have also found a relationship between diabetes and hearing loss; an American study found that hearing loss is about twice as prevalent among diabetics as in the general population, yet another study found that untreated diabetes intensifies the risk of hearing loss. The message is clear.

Hearing Both Ways

If you, or your loved ones, are suffering from hearing loss then it is important to see a good, professional audiologist like Clarisound who can restore your hearing and your quality of life. It may also be important to get a medical check up by a doctor. It works both ways. If you are suffering from diabetes then you must see a doctor and if you have experienced hearing problems, however small, then a FREE online hearing check is a good way to allay any fears you may have about hearing loss too.

Treatment for diabetes is possible and can be as simple as changing your diet and taking more exercise. Medical treatments may be needed depending on your diagnosis. If you, or your loved ones, are suffering from hearing loss then wearing a suitable hearing aid is the best way to restore your hearing.
