Recently I've been thinking that in some ways the way we are constantly using noise cancelling will have a negative impact on brain health. Though I don't deny that we live in very loud environments, our senses, and particularly hearing, habituate to the noise around us. Though the study suggests there could be a link, we can't ignore the relationship between T2D and socio-economics. Diet and exercise clearly have an impact, but if noise pollution was a factor, wouldn't we also see non-metabolic factors in T2D, which I don't believe we are seeing as a general society. But I guess this has not been studied yet. I am concerned about the lack of noise, and environmental queues that people get because they constantly have earbuds pumping noise directly into their ear, yet without the environmental inputs, echos, etc.
