    Turmeric with Curcumin Seems to Be Helping

    Thanks for the link. I've heard turmeric especially has been known to contain lead, so I'll try not to overdue it. Taking 2g occasionally at most, hopefully this helps.

    Turmeric with Curcumin Seems to Be Helping

    I stupidly took 2 grams of curcumin (2g of curcumin, not 2g of turmeric) after a loud noise exposure. Am I going to die?

    Vitamin Supplement (Nicotinamide Riboside) Successfully Prevents Noise-Induced Hearing Loss

    Cool. Taking 300 mg for now. Would it be risky to try a higher "therapeutic" dose? I couldn't find a lot of studies, and wasn't sure if taking a higher dose was worth any risk. Just really concerned about this noise exposure from yesterday...

    Tinnitus Worse After Listening to Boyfriend's Band Practicing Music: Looking for Support

    Try taking some NAC, and Nicotinamide Riboside. They both can be found at any supplement store. May help reduce oxidative stress which might help your hearing heal. But really, try not to worry. The brain has a massive effect on tinnitus, both its loudness, and intensity. The auditory system...

    N-Acetylcysteine (NAC)

    Anyone know if NAC is known to contain lead like many other supplements? Having a really hard time finding good info about which supplements contain lead, and which ones don't. Might just stop taking them altogether unless I can find some solid info. :/ Currently taking Jarrow Formula's 500mg...

    It does get better. The mind plays a huge role in tinnitus, for some more than others. For me, I had to train my mind to remain in a calm state, whilst intentionally listening to my T. It is a very difficult skill to learn, but once you master it, habituation becomes much easier, and the...

    Turmeric with Curcumin Seems to Be Helping

    Awesome. Thank you for this. I still think it's not worth the risk. Never know if a company will suddenly source Turmeric from another supplier, and the risk of intaking any amount of lead is just not worth it to me. Sucks because it really seems to help.

    Doctor Thinks There Could Be Something Wrong with the Anatomy of My Ear and Ordered a CT Scan...

    My doctor ordered a CT scan, despite my last MRI (no dye) showing no issues. I have experienced SSHL in my right ear, which recovered (at least mostly) on its own in 24 hours. My right ear has a slight loss in the lower frequencies compared to the left, and has slightly worse tinnitus in the...

    Turmeric with Curcumin Seems to Be Helping

    There are dozens of articles online about spices being traded worldwide possibly containing lead, which is of course extremely toxic to the nervous system. My ears are inflamed, and turmeric seems to help. This is the bottle I got from Whole Foods here in the US. Can someone please somehow...
