Great video ... begs the question ... if hearing aids can provide a such a medically important improvement in cognitive areas ... Why doesn't Medicare provide better support to help maintain this important health area?
Because Medicare is a dinosaur and they are looking for reasons to reduce care not improve it. Inflation increases costs every year, yet reimbursement decreases every year. Welcome to the twilight zone.
@@DrCliffAuDyup I can probably see that one
*Complete reversal and cure of hearing loss should be the top priority. We are in the 21st century it should therefore not be a problem to completely reverse hearing loss. Our culture (music for example) and our life is dependent on a fully intact hearing. Many species on this beautiful planet can regenerate their hearing if it has been damaged. It would also be a billion dollar market. I remember when the "Ice Bucket Challenge" was launched in 2014. How about a new challenge, but this time for finding a cure for hearing loss? We need to bring the problem to the public and we need to draw attention to it. Our hearing is valuable, just like our eyes. We need a breakthrough in research and medicine to restore hearing!*
I'm with you there
Yes we need to bring this to the media attention so that scientists should start working on it ❤😢
I miss my hearing so much
Hi Dr Cliff, thanks for this informative video. People don't realize how integral hearing is for our development and overall health. I'm in my 30's and finally went to a local Audiologist here in Australia after dealing with hearing issues my whole life and was really taken back by how affected I was without realizing it. My speech is affected, I cant pronounce some sounds because I've never heard them its also why some words despite being simple are difficult for me to interpret because my brain just isn't translating the sounds.
Your videos have been very helpful, trying to find suitable hearing aids and what their various technology levels mean is quite overwhelming. You've made the process easier!
as someone who left their hearing loss untreated for quite some time i can definetly relate to some of these studies and now that i have hearing aids im actually noticing a slow increase in my memory. it seems to be getting better as time goes by however i do still have issues with "processing sounds" at times which is still getting better :)
Thank you for this important public health message! Having been recently diagnosed with SNHL, I can’t wait to try out my first Phonak hearing aids (and read some of the original research on hearing loss, brain plasticity and neurocognitive aging and dementia risk you highlighted).
Great video, awesome information!!
Dr. Cliff I’m borrowing a my father new $4000 hearing aids only used 1 month . I’m amazed what I can hear with slight hearing loss with the hearing aids . I can’t use them all day because they were designed for someone with severe hearing loss . In my ears the hearing aids let me hear too much . The sound of me walking on rug and hearing things outside while inside with dual pane windows . Intensifies my hearing now I know how good a dog hears .
( Anyone that has good coverage for hearing aids even if they don’t need them get them because it will intensify your hearing as a dog hears . Outside in nature you will hear sounds thinking your super hero with hearing powers . It puts the iphone air pods “Live Listen” to shame .
Wait you borrowed them? Doesn't he need them more than you? I would imagine his hearing loss is more severe
Hi Dr. Cliff! Great video - thanks! Rebecca
Thank you. Covid caused awful tinnitus which prompted me to get an evaluation revealing a 40 decibel hearing loss flat across all frequencies. When I tried hearing aids it was instantly clear that I haven’t heard well for a long time. The first thing I noticed wearing them consistently was a big uplift in mood and energy. When your brain is working so hard to hear, it’s draining, even if it’s subconsciously so. I’ve also increased in my ability to focus and remember. I had even gone through two neuropsych evaluations because I was having such a hard time with memory and was concerned about early onset dementia, they diagnosed adult ADHD and recommended meds, and it turns out I just needed to hear better.
do you still have tinnitus after you get hearing aids?
Covid caused your hearing loss did I hear that right?
@@paulomangeron5241usually they wouldn't hearing aids somewhat help with that plus there's a relief program built right in
muy buena información! gracias Clif!!
It's winter and I am depressed. I had lost my hearing about 6 years ago. I don't want to talk about it, though I'm a lot better now. This video makes me glum to think I have a greater chance of developing dementia.
I get my hearing aids from the VA. It amuses me when the audiologist gives me the speech about how I need to make sure I’m putting them in and using them. I tell them all, I’d rather be without my glasses than my hearing aids. Wonderful tech.
My brain earplugs vs hearing loss .? I started wearing earplugs on the job side up to 8 hours a day . Then started wearing ear plugs when sleeping when sounds kept me from a nice quiet sleep . Bought a sound meter and found out many sounds at unsafe level driving with window down power tools ect . As I aged and part loss of hearing using a hearing aid for higher pitched sounds .
When at family gathering and kids screaming dogs barking pull out my favorite earplugs .
My uncle and my grandpa both lived to their 95+ years, with super clear and great cognitive minds. Yet, neither wore any hearing aids even though they frequently said "What did you say?"
Let's face it: we do not know for sure the link between hearing loss and dementia.
Great video... I have 40% loss and use AirPods Pro 2 8-10 hours per day. Are they OK, or I would need a Phonak or Siemens, or other hearing aid devices.?
What are you doing now. Hearing aid?
Excellent video, thank you. I wonder if there are studies done on people have been deaf their whole lives and use sign language to communicate- do they have higher levels of dementia, or is it caused by language deprivation?
I just upgraded to the phonak l90 rl hearing aids wow what a difference its like having my old hearing back quite natural
This was a great video. I'm in my 60s and have worn aids since about the age of 3. I have a moderate to severe loss, so I always have the aids on and only take them off when I go to bed. As I get older, I see some of my friends starting to wear aids and often they tell me that they only wear them when they go out and I've always wondered why. I thought it was perhaps that their loss was only mild, so they could cope without them. But to me that never made sense because if they coped, they wouldn't need aids at all.
Thank you for your video.
Do you think I should get a hearing aid if I only have mild high frequency hearing loss in one ear and normal in the other?
Dr cliff what about reverse hearing loss trials
Geez. I could not imagine OHRP approving anything like that.
What about tinnitus with no hearing loss? Can you make some videos about that, please? Is there any news about FX medicines and is there any similar like them? The last clinical trial was not so good
Hi Dr. Cliff. Does the probability of dementia exists even for a person with single sided deafness??
My daughter has auditory neuropathy. She has tried hearing aids in the past and says they don’t work. Is there anything else that she can do?
Hi Dr Cliff. Nice video. After 3 years of a sudden hearing loss I have a unilateral severe hearing loss only on the high frequencies (low frequencies are fine). I can understand most of conversations on my bad ear but i have developed a nasty tinnitus an hyperacusis. I tried to used Phonak hearing aids tuned to the best fit possible to no avail. It does not improved hearing as audition gains are restrictive by feedback. This limitation in standard hearing aids made them useless. What other hearing aid would you recommend to provide some input on the high frequencies so it could be tuned to the best hearing practice. The T and H are deteriorating to the point that i considering and implant?
Loaded question that I'm not sure I can answer well without more information.
@@DrCliffAuDit's about as loaded as fully loaded nachos
Hi Dr. Cliff, Thanks for highlighting this scary reality. How about for Unilateral Hearing Loss (Sensorineural)? My CROS HAs only send sounds into my good ear, which perfectly hears sound & connected to perfect, active, hearing neural pathways in my brain. However assuming my poor/non- hearing ear and side of brain will still be left totally "untreated", since no registered stimulation into them; even though I use a top-tier CROS HA set-up. Is my understanding correct, based on your logic as an Audiologist? Besides conducting surgery on my bad ear (i.e. CIs), will "stimulating" my bad ear with a HA help me, my brain and slow down loss of related neural connections, based on your logic & opinion as an Audiologist, not Neurologist? Thanks.
I haven't seen any studies about SSD and cognition. Information from one ear will technically stimulate both sides of the brain, but not sure if that is enough. CIs do show a positive impact on brain function after Implantation/activation.
What's the minimum hearing loss that hearing aids can treat? Research shows that you don't need to lose 26dB of hearing to have reduced cognitive performance. Can hearing aids even amplify sounds as low as 10dB? It's possible to overlook certain risks to hearing like wind noise from cycling and hammering.
So I guess that it is good that they always give hearing aids with the most amplification possible when I get new hearing aids because it is helping me with this too.
Can you do a video on Tonic Tensor Tympani Syndrome please? I can not any information on this and I believe I suffer from this condition.
Interesting video. What does it mean for deaf people? Are they permanently cognitively impaired? Maybe so. As someone with tinnitus and hyperacusis where many ambient sounds make everything worse, the idea of using hearing aides to ramp up sound just doesn't seem like a good idea. And no, my tinnitus is not caused by hearing loss.
My dad was a prime motivator for me. The worse his hearing got, the worse his dementia got. Now that I’m starting to lose upper end, myself, I have my More 1s. I learned from the previous generation. Thank you for the video as always. Just by way of cooking technique? If you crack the egg and open it up closer to the pan you won’t break the yolk. Lol. Thank you Dr. C,once again.
LOL, took me 4 takes and the 4th one is the only y😂olk that broke.
@@DrCliffAuD🤣 it kinda went like this cracks an egg into a pan this is your brain on oh wait crap broke another egg🤣
What about if you have a dead ear when hearing aids has no effect and of no help?
Dr. Cliff, can you review the new Lexie B1 Powered by Bose devices? I'm still using my Bose HearPhones because they ROCK with power and tone, but would love to shed the neckband when technology can bring that kind of quality/features/runtime into traditional hearing aid miniaturization. TIA
Oh. I just read, "Lexie B1 Hearing Aids do not stream music or take calls." That's a show stopper for me... :( Affordability was a key aspect of interest... NM.
Hello! My dad recently passed away and was basically completely deaf since childhood. he was born in 1951 and the story goes that he had a really bad fever and convulsions when he was a little kid and lost all of his hearing in one ear and almost completely in the other as well he could hear a very little bit wearing a hearing aid in life, we discovered that he had a brain AVm that was treated with gamma knife surgery. He died three years later due to a ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm that was 12 cm. Do you think it is possible that the brain AVM could be related to why he couldn’t hear his whole life? Also, could his aneurysm have gotten worse, possibly after the surgery on his AVM?
Would the benefits be the same for someone with moderate to severe hearing loss only in the 4000 to 8000hz range?
Ps. Thanks for the videos, they have been very informative and helpful.
As far as we know, yes, they would benefit.
If I use closed caption when watching tv am I contributing to the cross modal reorganization of the auditory cortex by vision that was described ?
OK. Now you've done it. I woke up this morning with the musical theme of your Dr. Cliff videos playing in my head. At first I wondered where I had heard this catchy jingle, then I realized it was Dr. Cliff. Ear Worm Alert! Maybe I had been dreaming about Dr. Cliff - better not go there! LOL

Just got quoted $7900 for two hearing aids….yeah I have no choice but to let it ride. I haven’t seen any reviews on the Jabra enhanced over the ear hearing aids. Are they on the list to check out, $2500 for two is more obtainable.
I love wearing my hearing aids. I wear them way more than 8 hours a day. 😁💕
Same here! I put them on when I'm getting ready for the day in the morning and take them off at the end of my day before bed. The only exceptions being the obvious times - sleeping, showering, and sick days. If they were waterproof I'd wear them in the shower too. LOL. It's unclear to me why some people don't want to wear them. I enjoy being able to hear more! Hearing technology ROCKS!
@@willowholman7381 if the sound quality is acting up or if they’re hurting you, that’s a valid reason to not wear them.. most people i know actually hate wearing hearing aids and i used to be anti hearing aids but now I’m really trying to get in to it,.. slowly but getting there.. i hate when the sound quality acts up… hate when the domes itch my ear,.. but I’m getting costom molds for the tips on my RICs.. and also need a shorter wire.. I’m very hyper picky about the sound quality because I’m a singer and it has to be perfect.. i had the phonak lyric ones and loved the sound but had to switch because they didn’t end up to be a good option in the end.. tried so many others,.. i tried IIC hearing aids from starkey,.. HATED them so much,.. then tried resound RIC’s and the quality of the sound for music was AWFUL quality.. but fine for speech, and stuff otherwise but absolutely hated them… havnt found my go to yet but getting there with the new phonak RICs that i got recently and those are much better so far.. just need new wires and the custom molds and i think I’ll be good with them hopefully.. The quality is usually really good but sometimes still gets annoying and fluctuates.. I need something perfect.. PLEASE HELP
Please talk about SPI-1005
Sir help me, save me, and rescue me from SSHL of my right ear. Its profound hearing loss. what is the latest treatment of a poor fellow like me? Im from Bangladesh. Aids don't work correctly.it's good for nothing. Sir Taft to go ahead in life with a single side damaged.
Dr Cliff, thanks but what if your hearing loss is profound and the hearing aid provides no help at all in speech recognition? Furthermore, the hearing aid - a good one by the way, adjusted by a good audiologist- only makes sounds that can be tiring? I cannot see any options there expect for cochlear transplant, which is not sthg Im willing to do. Thanks
Unfortunately, a Cochlear Implant is probably the best you can do.
Dr. Cliff, I’ve seen some articles that say chiropractic adjust can help relieve some tinnitus symptoms. Not a cure, but some relief. Have you ever researched this?
I don't doubt that it may work for some people, but I haven't seen a specific article indicating benefit.
I’m curious if the research goes further to see if the cognitive decline is caused more by the social isolation (more of a possible side effect of untreated hearing loss)?
bingo! i was thining the same thing
Ok thank you scared the fk out of me i struggle with wearing my hearing aids sometimes though sometimes too much loud noises hurt my ears and i have to take them out
I have a mild reverse slope loss. The ENT said “it’s mild and I could do hearing aids but you’d probably never wear them.” (Not sure how he determined that) I struggle to hear my husband unless he is looking at me or right beside me. His voice must be right in the loss zone! My tinnitus is horrible as well. Should I get a second opinion? (He mentioned my age of 42 as being a possible deterrent to wearing them)
It never hurts to get a second opinion. Especially when it concerns your health. One person does not know everything there is to know.
I did about three months ago at an audiologist and turns out I was right…mild loss that is essentially worse due to “hidden loss” Have had hearing aids since then and LOVE them!
Does this also apply to SSD? I find that wearing a CROS H.A. is worse and harder to hear than wearing nothing
Since no sound is received by the SSD ear, CROS will not have an impact on this.
Is there a specific audiologist you recommend in Central Ohio. I have Sudden Sensorineural Hearing Loss and haven't found the right hearing aids for me. Is there a specific hearing aid and audiologist that can help me?
The only providers I personally know are in Cincinnati, Cleveland, & Pittsburgh. Not sure which one is closest.
@@DrCliffAuD
who do u recommend in cincinnati?
one key thing you said in here, people with hearing loss tend to stop excercising. well i have read dimentia videos and they say excerciseing a goodamonut is a key to make sure you don't get dimentia and by excericsing more, unless you have a storng onset of it to begin with you can reverse it back. so perhaps that is the real reason and that the omtivation from hearing loss is not the actaul reason but the side effects of other things it casues.
i have a hard time beliving poor hearing would cause dimentia..
if that were the case, then we would have a massive amount of deaf people with diemeita,wouldn't we?
and /or people that have had 90 percen less hearing then nomral too
but i have seen many deaf people, including in older age. and none of them i have met have any diemtia tha ti am aware of.
their speech pattern is not the greatst duteo to not hearing sounds well. but that is a different story.
Is there any hope for hair cells regenarations
I'm with you. I lost hearing in my left ear 8 yrs ago. At the time, I was convinced that stem cell therapy was only a few years away. Here we are now and I'm absolutely perplexed why they haven't made more progress. The actual science to spur hair cell regeneration FEELS like it should be much simpler than the other applications that are actively being used. Sigh.....
We only been in the 21 century 2022 until 2030 or 1 century or 100 year ,Year 2122 we might have replaceable Ears bones outer ears drums and bones to replaceable Middle ears to replaceable Inner Ears Cochlea seashell shape might be donated by dead people . If we have better medical equipment . Quite possible in 50 years later on .
Hi Dr. Cliff,
I live in Saratoga Springs Utah, who can I go to for hearing loss?
I work as a PA in ENT with focus in ears and hearing. Recommend audiologic evaluation first (hearing test). This can be done at a local ENT office or Costco. ENT evaluation from there.
I don't have any HearingUp providers in your area yet. Oh, and don't go to Costco for a hearing test. Horrible advice.
my big question is, how do I know if I have hearing loss? I've really been struggling to understand speech these last 2 years, but I seem to be able to hear everything else just fine. I can't seem to figure out if I have hearing loss, or just trouble processing speech that got worse when I stopped interacting with people in lockdown...I could of course get my hearing tested, but I did in early 2020 when I developed tinnitus and it was just fine. my issues don't seem to have gotten much worse since then, so I'm confused whether the problem are my ears or my brain. I'm only 19, so it can't be age-related 🤔
Did they test frequencies above 8kHz?
@@DrCliffAuD I couldn't tell you, but it's definitely worth looking into. I have no reason not to, since I live in germany with practically free health care. I appreciate your help, thank you!
@@DrCliffAuD I just got reminded I can hear bats squeak, so I seem to be able to hear high frequencies just fine. it seems like my issues are possibly related to my concentration problems, then, which I'm not sure is easier to deal with 😂

Does this still apply to unilaterally hearing loss?
I haven't seen any research that specifically looks at SSD, but Cochlear Implantation should be a consideration.
So do deaf people suffer from these things?
And me who can't hear well with my one ear 💀...
( i think it's cuz once upon a time [ 11 years ago 💀 ] I blasted a cracker it went boom near my right ear and my ear slowly started loosing hearing ability and now it's in worst condition BUT THE OTHER EAR IS PERFECT )

Unfortunately many people cant afford them, ive been deaf my whole life im 32 i worn hearing aids until about 10 years ago when they broke my health insurance doesnt cover them and i cant afford them. Many of my friends dont wear hearing aids too because they cant afford it they ridiculously expensive.
There are many ways to get affordable hearing aids. What charitable organizations have you located in your area that help with affordable hearing aids? Have you tried Costco as well?
@@DrCliffAuD unfortunately I do not live near any Costco and I did check with a few audiologists around me and there is not any charities around where I live. I have looked online at Amazon but im worried to damage any of my current hearing since they would not be a hearing aid only a hearing amplifier. I have bought a hearing aid before on ebay and had them programed a long time ago at my old audiologist but they lasted 2 years before stopped working so I haven't bothered trying again on ebay.
Believe it or not that anti drug video is so iconic that it's been parodied so many times across different years in time across many centuries shall we say
Almost expected you to go all crazy and smash up the kitchen like that Rachael Leigh Cook anti-drug ad haha
Why wouldn't I treat my hearing loss???.... it's called affordability. Hearing aids are outrageously expensive. Not to mention, most health insurance plans don't cover them.

I just don’t see how wearing my hearing aids help. All I hear is horrible background noise to the point it drives me crazy. I’ve had 2 pairs of hearing aids. One really cheap pair and one really expensive Phillips pair. Unfortunately, no difference between the two when it comes to promoting hearing.
Then they are not tuned properly. I also happen to have two pairs of hearing aids and those of a higher technology level increase my speech understanding tremendously. Even when I was at the plant with huge industrial pumps roaring around yesterday I had no difficulty understanding what others were saying.
That's why I getting a new Phonaks Life Waterproof sweating proof digital surround sound system upgradeable with Bluetooth added to hear my cellphone computer and noise Cancelling device built-in with a 3 days battery charger base charger if electric power outage goes And I can hook up to my truck and charge USB ports charging hearing Aides case too . Rechargeable Battery hearing Aides supposed to last 16 hours of listening and charging 3 to 6 hours night time while I'm sleeping for 8 hours . I can swim in the pool up to 2 foot underwater while wearing hearing Aides and fishing and camping in the rainstorm and snowstorm and dust and shampoo and sweating and taking a shower while wearing a hearing Aides .My old hearing Aides kept repeating getting ruined by me sweating and rain storm and snow storm and dust and their is no noise Cancelling device and no surround sound system upgradeable and no Bluetooth to hook up to my cellphone computer and I'm very very tired of replacing microphone filters for every 3 weeks to monthly and changing ear molds every 3 years and changing ears molds plastic tubes every year or longer .
I been born premature baby 3 months too early in 1964 and been wearing hearing Aides since 4 years old in 1970 but it really wasn't a good hearing Aide back then 1970 until 1975 had a behind the ears hearing Aides work Soo much better since I have 75% hearing loss in right ear 👂 and 80% hearing loss in left ear 🦻🦻 And they hearing Aides dealership Audiologist AuD Professional Hearing Aides dealership Center in Deaf School and Audiologist doctor only have analog and digital hearing Aides wasn't even invented yet until 2010 but I couldn't afford it .My medical Insurance company only paid $800.

Until mom paided half of my old hearing Aides and still ended up having to get it repaired every 3 years . To last month I'm finally got my medical Insurance company to recommend paying for my new waterproof hearing Aides and I don't know how much it cost yet until next week or longer There are great difference between analog hearing aides and digital hearing Aides hearing better than before . I recommend you get your own hearing Aides fix correctly and getting a new ears molds and tubes replaced and getting a new digital hearing Aides and better surround sound system upgradeable with Bluetooth added and noise Cancelling device built-in hearing Aides like Phonaks Audeo Paradise rechargeable battery hearing Aides or Phonaks Audeo Life Digital rechargeable battery hearing Aides like I'm going to be getting. Go do it NOW!! Demanding to spend at least 2 hours of hearing testing and try to get your own hearing Aides fix correctly and getting new ears molds and tubes correctly .
Hearing aid benefit depends on the type and frequencies of hearing loss and word recognition scores. If good word recognition but need volume louder, hearing aids will often help. Adjustment and fitting of the hearing aid is key to making sure it is programmed for your specific hearing loss. If just a general programming, might not work as optimally.
I like your videos. A constructive note. When you talk you often bounce, like you are bouncing on the balls of your feet. Have no idea why this bothers me, but it does.
That’s a horrible thing to tell people. I had hoped you were better than that. Not everyone can get their hearing treated.
What do you mean?
@@DrCliffAuD I’m sorry if that seemed harsh. That was not my intent. It seems as though your saying if your deaf or you cannot treat your hearing loss your brain will become fried. Or more to the point your brain will not work as well.
I suffered a SSHL almost a year ago in my left ear. I had had bad hearing in my right for years due to an accident. My SSHL was due to covid or the vaccine. My doctors could not tell which. Either way it was difficult. I have a crossover system which is ok but with the amount of loss I have life is still challenging. I’m 63 and do not want major surgery so I’m not doing a C.I.. The loss of playing and listening to music has been the worst along with struggling to interact with my grandchildren. But I don’t feel my brain is scrambled. I read, collect books, write poetry, do photography. I’ve had to make serious adjustments and hedges against my future by pushing myself.
Your advertisement for your video just bothered me. Again, I apologize if it seemed harsh.
Thanks
I think he is just trying to let people know that there are solutions to minimize cognitive decline in people who are experiencing hearing loss especially from old age. It is to encourage them to do something about their hearing loss instead of just accepting it.
@@TravelerBrad I went almost completely deaf in one ear beginning last November. I couldn't get a hearing aid until June 2022 because of all the government closures. Oddly enough, my MRI technician asked if I had the so called vaccine because he's been seeing an uptick in hearing loss in vaccinated people. Answer is No, I refused. The truth about the clovid scam is coming out, perhaps you can sue Big Pharma.
Edison was deaf. You have to exercise your brain constantly
