HEARING HEALTH

Wholesome Foods

• No wonder food is the first thing that comes to
  our mind when we talk about health awareness.
  Because the food we consume has the power to
  nourish our body and remove all dangerous toxins
  that are affecting our health in one way or
  another.
• While the wholesome food improves our health,
  consumption of unhealthy dishes (alert they
  might look too scrumptious to avoid) can affect
  our body in a major way.

List of Essential Minerals Foods That Contribute
to Hearing Health

• We as an individual constantly search the
  internet for articles on food items that improve
  our health. However, did any one of us ever
  wonder what specific nutrients one should take in
  order to stay healthy?
• Our body needs vitamins, minerals and other
  nutrients to keep our organs working efficiently.
  Many studies have revealed varied minerals and
  foods containing them as specifically good for
  our hearing health.
• Let us take a look at this list of essential
  minerals and related foods that contribute to
  hearing health and also lower the risk of hearing
  loss.

POTASSIUM

• If you want to regulate the amount of fluid in
  your body, then go for foods high in potassium.
  This is important because as you start ageing,
  the fluid in your inner ear naturally decreases
  and might lead to a type of hearing loss, called
  presbycusis.
• Inner ear is the most essential part of our ear
  as it converts sound signals into electrical
  impulses and ultimately transit them to our brain
  through the auditory nerve. That said, potassium
  is an important element to be included in your
  diet to make sure your ears function well.
• Potassium rich foods potatoes, spinach,
  broccoli, tomato, orange, banana, lemon, yogurt
  and low-fat milk.

5
FOLIC ACID

• Folic Acid is one of the elements that help your
  body to generate new cells and also promotes good
  blood circulation throughout the body. But how
  does folic acid improve hearing?
• It is used by the body to break down an amino
  acid known as homocysteine which hinders blood
  circulation. By keeping hair cells and the inner
  ear in good working condition, folic acid
  promoted good hearing.
• Folic acid rich foods spinach, broccoli, organ
  meats

6
MAGNESIUM

• If you include magnesium along with Vitamin A, C
  E in your diet than you are more protected from
  being exposed to loud decibels of noise from the
  inner ear.
• It is mainly because when you are exposed to loud
  music, magnesium acts as a shield to protect your
  hair cells in the inner ear. Lack of magnesium
  may cause shrunken blood vessels and oxygen
  deprivation.
• Magnesium rich foods Potatoes, Spinach,
  Broccoli, Tomato, Banana, Artichoke, Fortified
  breakfast cereal

7
ZINC

• Zinc helps in improving the bodys immunisation
  and healing power. Zinc is needed for body to
  fight against germs which might cause common cold
  and ear infection.
• Studies indicate that zinc is not only effective
  in hearing loss treatment but also cures tinnitus
  problem which is common in individuals with
  normal hearing. However, it is advised to consult
  your physician if you are taking any antibiotics
  and diuretics before taking any zinc rich foods
  or supplements.
• Zinc rich foods Dark meats and chocolates. Peas,
  pork, oyster, nuts like almonds, peanuts and
  cashews

Final Thought

• In a nutshell, instead of neglecting your hearing
  health and being obliged to go for any kind of
  hearing loss treatment later on, implement a
  nutritious diet containing the above-mentioned
  minerals from an early age, to keep your hearing
  in check.
• If you are someone who is suffering from partial
  or full hearing loss and do not wish to wear
  boring, clumsy beige hearing aids, get in touch
  with a hearing professional who can treat your
  hearing impairment with advanced and
  aesthetically fine solutions such as Phonak
  hearing aids that are designed to amplify sounds
  by enhancing speech clarity.
• Happy hearing!
