Episode Details

Wait, what did you say? Our hearing is potentially the single largest risk factor for dementia? And it's almost always treatable?? Why then do only 16% of those aged 20-69 who need hearing aids use them? Also, what's up with the new hearing aids built into the latest generation of AirPods? Where are we likely to encounter the loudest/most damaging sounds? What about the stigma of hearing aids? We're joined by Dr. Susan Krutt today -- the kind of practitioner you want on your health care team!
