Key takeaways

Protecting your hearing is a daily habit, not a one-time fix. These easy steps fit naturally into your day and help keep your ears healthy for years to come.

Morning

Start calm

Begin your day with water and a few quiet minutes before turning on music or the TV. Take your daily supplement as part of your morning routine.

Antioxidant breakfast

Try oatmeal with berries and nuts, or yogurt with fruit and seeds.

During the day

Listen safely

Keep headphones at 60% volume or less and take a break every hour.

Protect your ears

Carry earplugs for concerts, sporting events and noisy commutes, and use earmuffs for power tools and lawn mowing.

Move your body

A daily walk or workout supports healthy circulation, including to the ears.

Evening

Give your ears quiet time

Spend part of your evening in a quieter environment to let your ears rest.

Clean safely

Wipe only the outer ear with a washcloth. Avoid cotton swabs in the ear canal.

Wind down and sleep

A calm bedtime routine and 7 to 9 hours of sleep help your body and mind recover.
