    Sharing a Success Story of a Man I Found on YouTube

    It's not about meditation alone. It's your attitude as a whole. You may be doing the right thing ... but is it right for YOU? I do believe that calming the mind has a big part in healing T. But it is not that simple ... at all ...

    Faith and Homeopathic Medicines Have Put Me on the Path to Healing

    It does sound like something. Since our brain has the biggest part, calming it down with whatever means you feel right for you is sure to work in one way or another ... I don't know about homeopathy, but whatever you believe helps - keep doing it. I don't think we quite understand how our body...

    Successfully Turned Tinnitus Off with Sleep Control

    I was increasing the dosage gradually. Then i was taking it 3 pills per day. Maybe 2 months. Then i started to lower it to 2 pills and finally 1 pill per day. At the second week when i started taking 2 per day, t started adding new sounds(like a broken radio). Then i went to ENT and made an...

    Successfully Turned Tinnitus Off with Sleep Control

    About Nootropil - my father takes these after a stroke. Some ENT doctors here prescribe it for hearing loss too. Some claim to see good effect. Haven't tried it. About sleep - mandatory! The less i sleep, the situation goes beyond worse ... Adding more sounds and making the previous ones...

    My Life Is Back

    Avoiding stress and having a good sleep is mandatory. That is quite certain at least in many cases. Mine too. I always thought my T is caused from noise, although i have never abused my ears that much - quite the contrary. These days i have more sounds than i can count and some are truly...

    I Know of 2 People in My Family Whose Tinnitus Has Gone Away

    If i understand right, you are talking about apple vinegar? I can confirm it works wonders for your blood vessels(cholesterol) and other things. If taken regulary for a longer time, half an hour before eating(on empty stomach). Mixed with some warm water is best. You can add some honey too, if...

    Magnesium

    I can recommend a book "Tired Of Being Tired". I think someone else has also recommended it on this forum. It has a pretty good ideas for your battle with Tinnitus :) There you will learn about vitamin B5 too.

    Magnesium

    Doesn't make any difference in my T. But it is relaxing and great for your overall health. Oxide is not very good though. It is not absorbed well in your body, so you are probably using around 20% from those 500mg.

    I am using Thorne Citrate or Citramate(Citrate+Malate) and that is by far the best Magnesium i have taken.

    Magnesium

    I agree with you about the supplements, although, pure Magnesium from quality source is always nice to have. I don't think you can overdose on that if you take 200-400 mg a day(food counts too). Even more if you hit the gym or do some other sport. Vitamins B are not stored in the body i think...

    Are There Any Supplements That One Should Not Take for Longer Than 6 Months?

    I mean 1(2) month on - 1 off. As far as i know, extended use of isolated amino acids can affect protein/amino acid synthesis in the body. So just to be on the safe side i prefer the 1:1 ratio. That is ofcourse if you are not taking it to treat a particular desiese. In that case, the dosage and...

    Are There Any Supplements That One Should Not Take for Longer Than 6 Months?

    NAC and ALCAR should be cycled i think. Magnesium you can take, although it will be good to run some blood tests. Also a small amount of Omega 3 i nice too. All other supplements should not be taken for very long, unless you ran some tests and know that you are defficient in some(B12, D etc.).

    N-Acetylcysteine (NAC)

    Guys, I am ordering NAC, because I can see much benefits when I take it. Doctors here prescribe it as medicament for lungs cleaning, but it is too expensive and has fillers.

    Tinnitus So Long Ago — Forgot I Had It

    For me it is not tht much the loudnes than the frequency that gives me spikes. It can be very loud and no difference. But it can be very low and still make my hed explode(like my monitor spekers, which i use at lowest volume). So i don't know what to think of it either. And it is constantly...

    New to Tinnitus

    It will probably improve. Just stay away from loud noises and do more aerobic exercises. Less time infront of TV or PC is also advisable. It most definitely can disappear but give it some time. And from now on, always protect your ears.

    Prednisone Made My Tinnitus Worse :(

    I have had Methylprednisolone infusions. After that i had 10 days withdrawal period. It did make my T quieter. Bu it also changed it to a lot more disturbing sound and also it added one more sound(also terrible). So my experience with this drug is ... not so good i think.
