Hearing Loss

Definition

Hearing loss is always a disturbing problem, but it's one that too often goes untreated, many people who experience diminished hearing simply accept it as an unfortunate but normal part of life.

Symptoms

  • Partial or total inability to hear
  • Hearing loss may occur gradually, or it may happen suddenly

Root Causes

  • High cholesterol
  • Loud noise
  • Food allergies
  • Medication
  • Trauma to the ear
  • High cholesterol
  • Age-related weakening of the ear structure and the nerves

Food to avoid

IF YOU experience frequent ear infections or a build-up of earwax, you may have food allergies. Read the food allergies section, and follow the elimination diet there; if a certain food provokes ear problems or excess mucus(which can lead to infection), avoid it.

Recommended

Although no one has proven (yet)that antioxidants can reduce or prevent hearing loss, we do know that they slow many aspects of the aging process.
