Key takeaways

Between commutes, workouts, ballgames and yard work, American life is full of noise. These simple daily tips help you protect your ears without changing your whole routine.

Morning

Start calm

Give yourself a few quiet minutes before turning on the news or music, and take your daily supplement with breakfast.

Antioxidant breakfast

Try Greek yogurt with blueberries and almonds, or eggs with spinach and a cup of green tea.

During the day

Listen safely

Turn on your phone's headphone volume limit and keep earbuds under 60% on your commute or at the gym.

Protect your ears

Keep earplugs in your car or bag for ballgames, concerts and the movies, and wear earmuffs when mowing or using power tools.

Move your body

A walk at lunch or after dinner supports healthy circulation.

Evening

Give your ears quiet time

Turn the TV down a notch and enjoy some quiet time before bed.

Clean safely

Clean only the outer ear with a washcloth and skip the cotton swabs.

Wind down and sleep

Aim for 7 to 9 hours of sleep to help your body and brain recover.
