Hearing loss is the leading preventable risk factor for cognitive decline. Studies show that individuals with untreated hearing loss face a 42% higher risk of developing dementia. Dementia and hearing loss are widespread, with around 6 million people in the United States diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, accounting for 60-70% of all dementia cases. Additionally, about 48 million Americans experience varying degrees of hearing loss.

Research consistently demonstrates that auditory health directly influences cognitive function, with individuals experiencing hearing impairment often showing signs of cognitive decline at an earlier age compared to those with standard hearing levels. A notable investigation by researchers at John Hopkins, involving a six-year observation of 2,000 older adults, revealed that hearing loss significantly accelerates cognitive decline.
At Beltone, we understand the intricate relationship between hearing loss and cognitive health. We emphasize the importance of hearing care in the early identification of cognitive impairments.
