Sodium

Wow! It looks like your PT does react to sodium, so maybe following a low-salt diet would be really beneficial to you. Have you heard of the DASH diet? It's a diet low in sodium, and online you'll find some good recipes that are naturally low in salt.

As for me, sodium doesn't seem to make much difference. What seems to affect my PT the most is blood pressure, so I am taking a natural supplement that keeps it as low as possible. I just took my blood pressure, and it was 103/65! It's not always that low, but it doesn't usually go much above the 120's/70's these days. That has really helped me!

Just curious, JM; does caffeine seem to affect your PT?

 

Hmmm! Have you read about systemic enzymes? They are supposed to help people with tinnitus that is caused by inflammation. You could look into it. One of the most popular brands of systemic enzymes is Wobenzym. You might want to Google it, to see if you think it might help you with the inflammation.

I took systemic enzymes for many months, but they didn't help my tinnitus -- probably because mine wasn't due to inflammation in the first place.

I wish you good luck in finding a cause. Are you going to go back to an ENT to be checked for inflammation, or to a dentist about the possible jaw or tooth problem?

 

What you're doing is very good! And in addition, if you'd like to try systemic enzymes, here's some information about it: http://n.wobenzymonline.com/

As I mentioned, it didn't work for me. But it might work for someone who suspects inflammation may be the problem.

Just a suggestion!
