Now that you can buy over-the-counter hearing aids without a prescription, you should go out and check them out at retail stores if you have a hearing problem. They are not the big ugly ones from the old days, technology has caused great improvement in design. Some have artificial intelligence or AI, fitness tracking, streaming capabilities and other features. A company called Phonak just came out with the first hearing aid which has a heart-rate sensor. Another company called Audeo Fit’s tracks fitness data, such as steps walked, activity level and distance walked while also monitoring your heart rate. It can connect to up to eight Bluetooth devices including smartphones and TVs.
