PAID CONTENT | Taylor Parker, Senior Regional Director-Concept by Iowa Hearing, stops by the studios of Iowa Live to discuss some important findings for those suffering from hearing loss. For those who have hearing difficulties, wearing hearing aids can slow down loss of thinking and memory abilities (Cognitive Decline) by up to 48%. Taylor explains what happens when you have even a mild hearing loss and your brain tries to process the messages it is receiving. We learn how the brain can actually shrink in size, with damage that can NOT be reversed, as the brain robs from other areas (including cognition) to make up for the loss. It is suggested that everyone get their hearing tested with a thorough examination. Concept by Iowa Hearing has 15 locations around the state and can test your hearing at no cost.
