Do you use headphones often throughout the day? so this 6 minutes video is for you!

Do you use headphones often throughout the day? so this 6 minutes video is for you! You need to manage the decibels you are exposed and the duration of such exposure. Did you know that the decibels (db) scale is a logarithm one? (if still this does not ring a bell look at the viz below). Thus, a small change in decibels represents a significant increase in the loudness levels impacting your hearing function (e.g. from 85 to 86). Hearing loss is also impacted by the duration of the exposure, thus a rule-of-thumb you should not be exposed more than 8 hours of a maximum of 85 db. So, adjust your setting on your mobile to a maximum of 85 db and use noise cancelation as much as you can. Useful info for your daily life. https://youtu.be/TXk8CoMdxD8
