The One Fat You NEED To Have To Stop Hearing Loss

Let's talk about nutrition and how it can impact your hearing. Chances are you realize that what you eat is going to have a significant impact on your body weight, but what about your senses?

Nutrition can influence your sight as well. We all have been told to eat our carrots so our eyes stay healthy,
but what about your ears? What foods can help save them?

As it turns out, there is one particular fat that you’ll want to ensure you are always paying attention to.

What fat?

Omega-3 fatty acids.

Simply put, not enough can be said about omega-3 fatty acids. This healthy fat variety is one that most of us aren’t getting enough of in our day to day diet but one that can really make a big difference in the overall results we experience in terms of our hearing health.

Omega-3 fats are well-known to boost many areas of your health including your psychological health, your heart health, your insulin sensitivity levels, and even your body composition, but few people realize they can also help save your ears.

The reason that these fats help give your ears a boost is because they help to lower the overall level of inflammation in the body, while also helping to prevent the damage to the sensitive tissues that can be linked to being in louder environments.

In addition to that, by lowering inflammation, they may also be able to help you avoid age related hearing loss as well.

So where can you get these omega-3 fatty acids from? They aren’t all that easy to find in food sources today, which is why you must give special effort to getting them in.

If you eat salmon at least twice a week, you are doing your body well. Salmon is one of the best sources to find omega-3 fatty acids, so it should be a key focus. Beyond that, you can also find omega-3 fatty acids in chia seeds, flaxseeds, walnuts, beans, as well as in smaller amounts in olive oil.

If you aren’t eating these foods regularly, you’ll instead want to focus on supplementing with a high quality omega-3 fatty acid supplement. This will help ensure your needs are met quickly and easily so you aren’t running the risk of deficiency.

To help get you going with your omega-3 fatty acid intake, here is a great recipe that involves two rich sources: salmon and walnuts.

Crunchy Salmon With Walnuts

¼ cup walnuts
1 tbsp. lemon rind
1 tbsp. oats
½ tbsp. olive oil
1 tbsp. fresh dill
salt and pepper to taste
2, 3 oz. salmon filets

In a food processor, process the walnuts, lemon rind, oats, olive oil, and dill. Once mixture is combined, place salmon on a non-stick baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Add salt and pepper to taste. Press the walnut mixture over top.

Let stand for about an hour, covered in plastic wrap in the fridge.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until salmon flakes easily.
Serve with your choice of side dish.
