Glechoma Hederacea (Ground Ivy) for Noise-Induced Tinnitus?

[Vinnitus]

Came across this page today:

http://www.henriettes-herb.com/blog/hotw-ground-ivy.html

It specifically mentions the following.

It's one of the few herbs that can touch noise-induced tinnitus. A lot of people read my first book in Finnish (the one from 2000, not the Finnish version of Practical Herbs), grabbed the ground ivy, and could start working again ... they'd been on disability for their tinnitus for years. I know because quite a few told me. It's 2-3 cups of tea for weeks or months on end, or until the noise stops. (... what a relief!)

Of course this is completely anecdotal, however, maybe someone tried and can share their experience with this herb.

She claims it helped here. She basically just talks about how it helped her T while she took it for something else, so it was a positive side effect. Doesn't seem to be selling it, just informing. Some in comments claim it helped a bit as well.

Might be worth a shot? I'd love to see if anyone here has already tried it though.

Was hoping someone had given this a try and saw any results. I'd love even a slight reduction! Wonder if I'll need to guinea pig this and then relay them here. I'll have to start doing some research when I have some time on where to get it.

@shasta0863 I don't think it would be dangerous to try, she mentioned you can get it on Amazon. This is really interesting, she had old ototoxic T from when she was a kid.

Be worth a try. Have you a link to the video or the woman's name? It would be interesting to read any comments posted below her vid.

Sounds like a nice minty tea...if nothing else...worth a slurp.

Anyone actually tried this ?

Yep - did Fifty bags from Amazon.
Actually a really nice drink...but thats it for me.
No effect whatsoever.
Wish I could report a miracle cure for you fella.
Whats next ? I don't suppose anyone has tried Tibetan Slug Juice...hand squeezed by Monks ?
Maybe ill just stick on an ACDC album and finish the job off !

 

[RaZaH]

Oh well ...next.

 

[Kelvin]

T in the making ! But damn it was sweet...
Hopefully the Young-Guns will be better protected nowadays...but I have my doubts.

Is your T noise induced, or caused by a nerve issue or some sort connected to dental work?

Also, how long did you take it. I read it should be taken a full month (off and on depending on your tolerance) before seeing any changes. Even a slight decrease that is noticeable, I'd jump on in a heart beat, especially now my T is even worse.

Hi@shasta0863...I wish I knew what caused my T.

All I know is it started two hours after a dental filling. My guess therefore is something to do with my jaw. That said, the drill was also incredibly loud and high pitched. Who knows...who ever knows ?

I had Two bags of the Tea a day for Twenty Five days and...nothing ! Not even a slight alteration. I wish it was different.

I hope you find something that helps you. My search goes on

@Kelvin Off topic... is your T bilateral or unilateral?

Hi @Cal18.
It is almost always Unilateral ( Left ) although I have to say when my ears are supersensitive ( every 3/4 days ) then it sounds like its coming from both sides, but then more from my head than my ear. Its so so confusing and hard to pin-down.
It all started with Hissing in the Left - which was the side my dental filling was placed.
I am currently trying to learn to love it as hating it makes life too difficult.
I hope you are finding some peace in your days X

I am trying this - i think it works a bit if ur ringing is induced from a sinus infection/cold. I am using the real herb though - not tea bags

 

[volsung37]

Will give this a try. She said she accompanied the tea with a concentrated liquid form. My T seems to be due to inflammation and sinus problems.
