      I tried Saffron for a week and it completely cured my tinnitus. It might not work for everyone but no harm in trying out.

      Procedure:

      1. Take a pinch of saffron (not the extract) but the actual dried flower.
      2. Soak it in warm milk (1/2 cup) for 10-20 mins. You can also add sugar and cardamom for taste but this is optional.
      3. Drink it every day in the morning.

      Pls try and let me know if this works for you,

      Good luck,

      Where do you get the Saffron? It is pretty expensive isnt it? Are there any studies showing this as a cure?

      I remember in 2006 an old man in my village told me that this thing helped him a lot but I did not try it because I didn't believe him (n) so now I may try it

      Friends my goal is to help people who suffer like me. I have got complete relief so why not share it with others. Here's my response to your questions:

      1. Where do you get the Saffron? - You can get this in any Asian grocery store.
      2. It is pretty expensive isnt it? - Not really. I paid $15 for a small box.
      3. Are there any studies showing this as a cure? I am not aware of it.
      4. What was the cause of your tinnitus? - I believe it was due to the exposure of loud noise and that i was close to it all the time since I was part of the marching band.
      5. how bad was your t , - It was horrible. I went to many doctors and they could not help. I started wearing expensive ear plugs but still no relief
      6. for how long did you have t , - For 3 months
      7. for how long did you take saffron before you felt it was working, - Took it for just a week. But it might take longer for someone.
      8. why did you try Saffron ? - Here's why I think Saffron worked. I tried saffron becoz I knew it was a nerve relaxer that was used in old days. I also felt that tinnitus must be related to stress in nerves ending in the ear.

      I hope I answered all your questions. Good luck.

      Its highly likely that it got fixed on its own after 3 months , in any event , congrats on finding silence.
      And thanks for taking the time to let us know :)

      I agree. At 3 months, it could be spontaneous resolution of the T. Having said that, I suppose it's worth a try like vitamin B1, etc, etc.

      Can't seem to find anywhere in Ireland to buy this. Any suggestions for online? Probably a load of scammers out there I suppose.

      Thanks for sharing your experience baskar. I'm a bit concerned the quality of saffron online might skew the experiences of people on here who will be trying it. This review I found on Amazon sprang to my attention:

      Make sure you buy for a reputable supplier without paying the price of gold!
