Baby boomers have not been disappointed when they visit: www.myhearpod.com for information about these products and services. <\/p>\n<p> &#8220;We are thrilled by what people are saying about HearPod Hearing Aids,&#8221; Randy Wohlers, President of HearPod, Inc., said. &#8220;We are getting orders for patients from doctors and audiologists. We also know that we have a special product when orders start to come in from neighbors of people who have purchased our HearPods.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p> The vast majority of people with a hearing loss do not realize how much this loss affects them. However, family members may observe gradual personality changes and, typically, will suggest that they get help. <\/p>\n<p> &#8220;So, what are the consequences of prolonging help,&#8221; Wohlers asks? &#8220;First, is the issue of understanding speech. In simple terms, if you do not use it, you loss it. The brain&#8217;s auditory cortex is not being stimulated with sound and the brain stops processing the sound into meaningful words which is referred to as &#8216;lack of discrimination.&#8217; Many people say &#8216;I can hear you, but I cannot understand what you are saying,'&#8221; Wohlers explained. <\/p>\n<p> Most people have lost a significant amount of word understanding before they get a hearing aid and this leads to many problems. Most people believe that a hearing aid will solve the problem, when in reality, the sound can be restored, but the speech discrimination lost is often irreversible.<\/p>\n<p> &#8220;Early detection and correction allows people to stay in the game in a world where communication is everything,&#8221; Wohlers said. <\/p>\n<p> Anyone who thinks they may have hearing loss should see their doctor, get a hearing test, and visit: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.myhearpod.com\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener\">www.myhearpod.com<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>News issued by: HearPod, Inc.<\/p>\n<p> # # # <\/p>\n<p><small>Original Story ID:  (2001) :: 2006-09-0918-002<\/small><\/p>\n<p><small>Original Keywords: digital hearing aids.
