Testimonial

Hi,
 My name is Jim, and my ears ring.  I know that tinnitus is caused by
many different maladies, and each person's problem is different.  
This is just my experience, and what I found.

 I've had tinnitus for over 15 years.  On bad days it will blank out
most "soft sounds" of conversations and the television programs.

 I find it a pain that the same program at the same volume setting,
where I can't hear the conversation, will "blast me out of the room"
when it broadcasts loud noises.  I finally set up an extra speaker for
the tv, which is located close to my chair in the den.

 I went to a hearing specialist physician a few years ago.  After an
exam, he told me that he thought my tinnitus was the result of fluid
build-up in my middle ear, and he put me on a diuretic (and took salt
out of my diet).  I also had some hearing loss in my left ear, for
which he told me to keep the driver's side window up and turn down the
truck's radio.  <grin>
 I was skeptical about the salt part, but within three days, the
tinnitus that I had been listening to for over ten years just
disappeared.  Wow!  I was impressed.
 This gave me a bit of control over the situation, and greatly
improved my attitude about the situation.

 I do not have any blood pressure issues, and have always used  a lot
of salt.  I now no longer salt food at the table.
 When I eat somewhere other than at home, and my ears start ringing
within three hours later, I know to avoid those foods in the future.
(Chinese food almost always starts my ears to ringing.)
 When I get cravings for potato chips or similar junk foods, I can
gauge how much I really want them before I indulge (and start or
increase the ringing in my ears).

 Some evenings, after (or in the middle of)  a conversation with my
wife, she will stop and say, "You ate some potato chips, today, didn't
you?"  She can tell the difference in my hearing ability caused by the
tinnitus increase.

 As an example:  I ate some cheese flavored corn puffs last night and
this morning my ears are ringing as loud as anything else in my
environment.  It may be a while before I eat them again.

My advice to everyone who hasn't tried it, is to get checked out by
one or more legitimate doctor, before trying mail order remedies and
alternative cures.   You might be surprised.

He's not a fool like you who thinks GB is a cure-all.  It didn't help
you bong fetish.
