Phosphatidylserine for Tinnitus

Hello,

I am wondering if anyone on Tinnitus Talk has taken Phosphatidylserine to help curb tinnitus symptoms?

My ENT doctor has mentioned that it may help.

I am wary of taking supplements actually ever since tinnitus started.

Thanks in advance.

Truly,
Albert

 

Did it help your tinnitus?

 

You could just eat more Atlantic mackerel.

 

I’ve been taking Phosphatidylserine 100 for a month. Tinnitus-free days have increased. I don’t know if there is a connection.

 

I've been taking Phosphatidylserine for nearly 2 months. The intensity of my tinnitus seems to have gone down a bit. I can't tell if this is due to an actual reduction in my tinnitus or that I am just less bothered by it. If it is the latter, I am guessing it could be due to a reduction in my cortisol level, which I understand is something Phosphatidylserine is supposed to do.

I have read that Phosphatidylserine can be made from a variety of sources. On this point, I have noticed some supplement vendors use soy, which is something you probably don't want to consume on a regular basis over a long term. The Phosphatidylserine I use is from Safflower.

 

Has anyone else tried Phosphatidylserine? I hadn't heard of it until now.

 

What brand do you use? Dosage? “Safflower”?

 

Metagenics 300 mg/day. Made from sunflower oil.

 

Expensive stuff. I use Jarrow’s PS 100. Sunflower. Do you find that it helps anxiety or sleep?

 

Yep. Metagenics is not cheap. I haven't really seen this impact sleep, but it does keep me calmer throughout the day.
