November Is… Diabetes Awareness Month

Many people are not aware that hearing loss is associated with Diabetes. According to the American Diabetes Association “A recent study found that hearing loss is twice as common in people with diabetes as it is in those who don’t have the disease. Also, of the 86 million adults in the U.S. who have prediabetes, the rate of hearing loss is 30 percent higher than in those with normal blood glucose”. Taking time to see an audiologist for regular hearing screenings and knowing the signs of hearing loss can protect your hearing. We need your help spreading the awareness! If you know somebody who has Diabetes, then please have this conversation or share this blog post!
