Healthy Heart, Healthy Hearing

Most heart disease is linked to blood vessel damage from high blood pressure, often called hypertension, and stiffened or narrowed arteries from high cholesterol. These problems are caused by a mixture of aging and lifestyle and can cause blockages or ruptures of major or minor vessels. Many people are not aware of the risks to your heart until it is too late and if you don’t get your health checked you may be at risk of heart attack or stroke, or even heart failure. Hearing loss is also a common complaint worldwide with millions of people young and old suffering from hearing loss of various types and degrees and sometimes this is related to your heart.

Listen To Your Heart

The connection between heart health and hearing loss is all about blood flow. Numerous scientific studies have shown that good circulation plays a role in maintaining good hearing. On the other hand inadequate blood flow and trauma to the blood vessels of the inner ear can contribute to hearing loss. This is because the tiny hair cells in the cochlea, which translate the noise your ears collect into electrical impulses to your brain to interpret as recognisable sound, rely on good circulation. Poor circulation deprives these hair cells of sufficient oxygen, causing damage or destruction. These hair cells do not regenerate and this leads to permanent hearing loss. Hearing loss isn’t likely to be fatal but it does increase risk of falling and will add stress to your daily life.
