How Poor Hearing Can Impact Memory: A Family's Journey

Poor hearing is one factor that can contribute to cognitive decline, whether due to hearing loss or accumulated earwax, and, by the way, the latter is not the result of poor hygiene.
Marlene Veltre takes us on a personal journey as she navigates the challenges of caring for a loved one with cognitive decline. In this episode of 'The Simple Seven', Marlene is in the Midwest with her family, facing the harsh reality of short-term memory loss. Drawing from Dr. Dale Bredesen's RECODE program, which has shown promise in reversing cognitive decline, Marlene shares her family's experiences and insights. She zeroes in on one surprising factor: poor hearing.
Marlene reveals how her mother's hearing issues have been affecting her memory and overall cognitive function. She even references an article from The New York Times that delves into the link between hearing impairment and dementia. But it's not all doom and gloom. Marlene offers practical advice on safely removing earwax and tips to help prevent further cognitive decline.
This episode is a heartfelt blend of personal anecdotes and scientific insights, making it a must-listen for anyone dealing with similar challenges.
