Cold weather tip for hearing aid wearers ❄️

Hats, earmuffs, and scarves are great… but they can also rub against microphones and cause annoying noise.
✅ Try a snug knit hat (less fabric movement)
✅ Keep scarves from brushing your ears
✅ If you hear “rustling,” adjust your fit or your layers

5 ingredients to add to your diet to promote better hearing!
🐟Fatty fish (salmon, sardines, trout) – a good source of omega-3s, which have been associated with a lower risk of hearing loss in large prospective studies.
🥬Leafy greens (spinach, kale) – provide folate and carotenoids; higher intakes of specific carotenoids and folate have been linked with lower risk of hearing loss in cohort research.
🫘Beans and lentils – an easy way to build a DASH/Mediterranean-style plate, dietary patterns that have been associated with lower risk of hearing loss.
🥕Colorful produce (bell peppers, carrots, sweet potatoes, citrus) – antioxidant-rich foods that help support overall cell health; antioxidant intake has been studied in relation to hearing outcomes.
🥜Nuts and seeds (walnuts, pumpkin seeds, almonds) – provide magnesium and vitamin E; magnesium and antioxidant nutrients have been researched for potential protective roles in hearing health contexts.

Hearing is a shared experience, and support from family makes a real difference. If you’re communicating with someone who has hearing loss, small changes can help: get their attention first, face them when you speak, reduce background noise when possible, and rephrase rather than repeating the same words. If you’d like guidance tailored to your home and routines, we’re glad to talk through strategies together.

If you’re new to hearing aids, the first few weeks are an adjustment, and that’s completely normal. Many patients notice sounds they haven’t heard in a while, and it can take time for the brain to adapt and for settings to be fine-tuned. Consistent wear and follow-up visits make a big difference. If you’re wondering, “Is this normal?” please reach out—we’re happy to help.

A simple cleaning routine can help hearing aids sound clearer and last longer. A quick daily wipe-down and a weekly check for wax or debris can prevent many common “muffled” issues. If you’re unsure about what to clean or how often, bring your devices in, and we’ll show you an easy routine tailored to your specific model.

January is a great time for a quick hearing aid “tune-up.” We can clean and inspect your devices, check performance, replace worn parts as needed, and review settings—plus update firmware when applicable. If your hearing aids have sounded softer, felt less comfortable, or you’ve had connectivity issues, a check can often resolve it quickly. Contact us to schedule your device check.

Happy New Year! As we enter 2026, we’d love to know—what’s one health goal you’re setting for yourself this year? It can be big or small: better sleep, more movement, less stress, staying on top of appointments, or taking the next step with your hearing health.
