Hearing Aid:a Wellbeing booster

If you need a hearing aid but are reluctant to wear one, a recent study might just change your mind.

Researchers at the University of Michigan in the US followed 115,000 people diagnosed with hearing loss.


They found that, after three years, the relative risk of dementia was 18 per cent lower in those using their hearing aids, while the risk of having depression or anxiety also decreased by 11 per cent.
