    Thiamine Pyrophosphate (TPP) Stopped My Tinnitus!

    @Ben Winders, do you have any issues with dairy (casein)? I have that head buzzing tinnitus too, it's not from my ear. But I can get it to go away with diet. I just ordered Thiamine Pyrophosphate (TPP) with Calm GABA. The reason I'm here to today is because I had a random spike which I...

    Ear Spasming Like Crazy — Like Pulsatile Tinnitus But Not in Rhythm with My Heart

    @Orions Pain, I just read this post, and I'm sorry in general, but I think you have an inflammation issue. Red wine makes me miserable for 2 days with tons of ear pressure. Specifically my reaction to red wine the next day. Just curious, do you ever have any other increased pain or discomfort...

    Dairy Free Diet to Alleviate Hyperacusis

    No doubt in my mind there's a dairy, casein protein or gluten correlation with Inflammation causing in increased tinnitus pitch and volume. I've been 3 days off dairy, gluten, and red wine. My tinnitus is now about 4/10 vs 8/10. I start the process of testing for caseine at 3pm today. I'm so...

    Tinnitus Went After 7 Years — Slightly Altered Diet — Cow Dairy

    Very encouraging. Dairy and Gluten can create transglutaminase (TG) 2 serum autoantibodies, and there may be TG blocker meds in the near future. Google T2 study around this topic. I was doing great after months of no dairy (Oat Milk). But then I had a Pizza and Bojangles biscuits. Within a...

    Tinnitus and Dehydration

    Hydration is absolutely linked as well as sinus pressure caused by dehydration. You can use Mucinex for sinus pressure or Eustachian tube blockage that causes pulling on your inner ear. Drink 1/2 gallon a day and understand what diuretics are.

    Distractions, L-Carnosine, Quercetin with Chiro Is Diminishing My Tinnitus

    @Rajin There's lots of CBT you can do on your own, but you have to be very disciplined. I do see someone but not for CBT. For example - If you clench your teeth, replace that action with a fist clench while you "think" about teeth clenching. Do not clench your teeth ever. Imagine clenching...
