What Is The Real Science Behind
Hearing Loss?
Millions of Americans are affected by hearing loss but there is very little information available about how the ear works and the root cause of hearing loss. This article explains the real science of hearing and how hearing loss occurs.

This is how common hearing loss is in adults:
-Age 45-54 =
5%
-Age 55-64 =
10%
-Age 65-74 =
22%
-Age 75+ =
55%
So the data shows us that, if we live long enough, most people will develop hearing loss.
But why is this? What part of our ear is failing and makes this so likely to happen?
First, you need to understand how a healthy ear works.
The ear is designed to take sound waves that move through the air and convert them into electrical signals.
This is how it works:
> Your outer ear is like a funnel that catches the sound around you and directs it down your ear canal.
> Those sound vibrations hit your eardrum and are passed through a series of three bones called the malleus, incus and stapes.
> These bones amplify the vibrations and push them into cochlea, which is a hollow, spiral bone filled with fluid.
> Now the sound vibrations become waves of fluid that travel around the spiral of the cochlea
> The walls of the cochlea are lined with hair cells, that have tiny filaments at the top called stereocilia
> The stereocilia move around in the fluid, and this motion triggers a tiny electrical response that is sent up your auditory nerve to your brain.
So why do we lose hearing as we age?
The stereocilia are responsible for converting the sound into brain signals. And over time, these tiny filaments break and become damaged.
But here’s the problem;
they don’t regrow.
Unlike most other cells, they are not genetically programmed to regrow.
So you just have less and less stereocilia over time which means your brain is getting less and less information.
That’s why you lose your hearing as you get older.
For some people, they lose less stereocilia so they are still able to hear fine. But for others, they lose more and they notice that they have hearing loss.
That’s what has happened to you.
This is mostly down to genetics but you can also do more damage to your ear through exposure to loud noises, as well as some drugs and toxins.
Why can’t we just make the stereocilia regrow?
One day, we will probably find a way to do this.
There was some promising research in Harvard Medical School in 2023 that showed that they could use a very specific cocktail of drugs to make some ear cells divide and regenerate in mice. This is called gene therapy.
But even though this is an exciting development, it’s much too early to know what this will lead to, or if it will even be possible to do the same for humans.
So, it’s likely that any treatment like this is still decades away.
It’s very unlikely to happen in our lifetime.
Using so-called “gene therapy” also needs years and years of careful testing to make sure that it’s safe.
Okay, so what about creating artificial stereocilia and implanting them?
The problem with any surgical solution is that
everything happens inside the cochlea.
And because the cochlea is a closed system, inside a very fine, hollow bone, you can see why it’s so difficult to implant anything inside it.
Right now, any surgery is just going to damage the cochlea even further, instead of improving things.
And just in case you think
“But what about cochlear implants?”
- These are called this because they connect to the cochlear nerve so they send messages directly to the brain. Nothing is implanted in the cochlea itself.
If there is no cure for hearing loss, what should I do?
We can’t cure the root cause of your hearing loss but
we CAN treat the symptoms.
And it’s
very important to treat these symptoms.
Living with hearing loss is hard.
It makes communication difficult but it also makes you much more
stressed, anxious and lonely.
And all of these problems get worse over time.
As the months and years go by, your friends and family will also start to subconsciously exclude you more and more, because communication has become so difficult.
So what are my options?
You really have 3 options:
Option 1. Do Nothing
This is a very bad idea. You will throw away the end of your life as you withdraw from the world more and more.
Option 2. Get a Prescription Hearing Aid From A Doctor
The biggest problem here is price. The average cost of a hearing aid is $4672.
You will also have to pay all of the costs of doctors and audiologists on top of this.
This is the main reason why almost 25 million Americans are currently living with untreated hearing loss
Option 3. Solve The Problem Yourself
There is now one,
affordable solution
to get clear hearing without needing a doctor.
It’s called
a
Nebroo hearing aid?
What is a Nebroo hearing aid?
This is a small device that you place in your ear canal.
Everything is contained in the device so there is no large case sitting behind your ear and this makes it almost invisible to the people you’re talking to.
The Nebroo processes the sounds around you, improving the sound quality, before sending it down your ear canal.
Even though you have lost many of your stereocilia, there are still many that are working normally.
But a hearing aid must do more than just increase the volume of the sound around you.
How does Nebroo make it so easy to hear people talk?
The Nebroo contains a
cutting edge microchip
called
Vox Humana.
It was designed and programmed so it does not just amplify, but
improve the clarity of human speech.
This means that conversation become clear and stress-free
This helps you hear people speaking even with noise in the background
The Vox Humana chip enables you to become part of the conversation again.
So how much does it cost?
This is the most impressive part of the Nebroo hearing aid.
It was actually designed to be a
high quality solution
that
every American could afford.
And by selling directly to you, so there are no middlemen taking a cut, Nebroo was able to slash the full retail cost to just $200
But that’s not what you have to pay.
Right now
there is a way to get the Nebroo for even less.

“Incredible value” Reviewed from Alabama on March 17, 2024
I honestly had no idea of how much hearing loss was impacting my life until I bought these nebroo. I saw an article one day and decided to try them, given the low price. I aways knew I had hearing loss, but knewing about the thousands of dollars that hearing aids cost, I have never dared buying one. From the moment I put these nebroo on I could notice a big difference, I started to hear sounds I did not even remember about. Plus these are so small, I am so happy with them, incredible value.

“I was an idiot for waiting” Reviewed from New Jersey on June 22, 2024
The wife spent about a year trying to get me to go to a doctor to fix my hearing as I was struggling with it, but I kept putting it off. I bought these Nebroo and didn’t think I’d use them that much but I have them in all day now and I forget they’re in there now. Honestly I feel like I wasted a year with bad hearing when I basically fixed it with $99. So guys (because I know this is what men do) I was an idiot for waiting, just fix it.
