Noise Linked With Heart Disease
Because heart disease is the leading cause of death among both men and women, it is important to adopt measures that help prevent heart attacks. Aside from quitting smoking, lowering cholesterol, controlling high blood pressure, maintaining a healthy weight, and exercising, avoiding noise may also help maintain a healthy heart. According to a recent study of 499 individuals who were free from cardiovascular disease and cancer at the study’s start, exposure to a high level of noise on a regular basis can inflict significant damage on the cardiovascular system. Researchers found that noise exposure caused elevated stress in the brain that can lead to inflammation in the blood vessels, which can result in heart attack and stroke.
The Ear Clinic brings you this column on hearing healthcare and its impact on the entire body in order to better educate you on the importance and benefits of taking care of your hearing, thus enhancing your quality of life. If you or a family member seems to be experiencing hearing difficulties, we welcome your call at 226-909-0966. We offer comprehensive services by a skilled and specially trained Doctor of Audiology at 46 Nelson Street W., across from the LCBO, including a complimentary hearing evaluation, gentle ear wax removal, tinnitus management, dizzy assessment and management, individualized hearing instrument fittings, and follow-up care.
P.S. It makes sense to carry a pair of ear plugs that can be inserted whenever ambient noise rises to a dangerous level.
