Common Sense Remedies
Avoid alcohol, smoking, and caffeine; they can make tinnitus worse.
Cut down on salt in your diet. Salt can cause fluid to build up in your ears, worsening tinnitus.
Tone down sound around you. Avoid loud noises, which can aggravate a case of tinnitus you already
have. Wear earplugs whenever noise abounds. You can use foam, rubber or moldable wax plugs. You
can also use headphones you wear like earmuffs.
Some people don't notice their tinnitus in the daytime, but as soon as the lights go out, they're up to their
inner ears in bells and buzzers. In this case turn on an FM radio; tune it so that it will point to the static
between stations. If you keep the radio near the bed just loud enough to be audible, the static near your
head will mask the sounds in your head and let you fall asleep. You can also use music to soothe you to
sleep. Or record a 'white noise' tape, such as of running water, and play it whenever you need relief.
Some people can't hear their tinnitus when they take showers. You can carry shower sounds around with
you. How? Make a long-playing tape of a running shower. When the tinnitus gets bad, listen to the tape
through headphones.
Stress was found to make tinnitus worse. So, relaxation and stress management techniques also are
useful. Deep, slow breathing is one safe way to ease tension. However, this may not be enough. See a
counselor if you're having difficulty dealing with stress in your life and your tinnitus is becoming worse
because of it.
Avoid too much aspirin. If you take aspirin daily (for arthritis, for example), try a different anti-inflammatory
drug if you are suffering from tinnitus. Aspirin can cause or worsen tinnitus. Some of the other antiinflammatory drugs can also cause or worsen tinnitus, but not in everyone.
Distraction is an effective technique to combat tinnitus. Focus on some outside activities: Help other
people. Join some volunteer groups. Enrich rather than restrict your life.
Increase circulation to the ear area by massaging or applying a hot compress on the neck before going to
bed. Dip a small towel into hot water, wring out, place on neck and place a dry towel over it.
Stimulate overall circulation with alternating hot and cold foot baths every evening.
Place a small cotton pouch filled with 3 tbsp. each of hot roasted millet seeds and salt on one ear. Leave
on for ten minutes.
Regularly chew dried fruit. It increases circulation to the ear area.
An occlusal splint can help stop teeth grinding, which is known to cause tinnitus.

Alternative Therapies for Tinnitus
Alexander Technique
Alexander technique uses postural training of the neck to help people with tinnitus, particularly in cases when the
tinnitus is accompanied by vertigo. The technique is believed to improve the flow of blood to the ear.
Ayurveda
According to Ayurveda, tinnitus is a vata disorder.
To alleviate this root cause-aggravation of vata in the nervous system-prepare a tea made from equal amounts
of comfrey, cinnamon, and chamomile. Steep up to 1 teaspoon of this mixture per cup, and drink 2 or 3 times a
day.
Also, you can take yogaraj guggulu (200 mg. 2 or 3 times a day) with warm water, after food.
Gently rubbing the mastoid bone (behind your ear) with warm sesame oil may be helpful. Try it twice day,
morning and evening, for a week, and see if it helps.
Garlic oil is often effective. Place 3 drops into your ear at night before going to bed.
Deep Breathing
Take 175 deep breaths continuously every hour until the condition improves. Deep breathing is very useful in
bringing out relaxation and in reducing the stress.
Color Therapy
Use blue for thirty minutes on the affected ear each morning and evening followed by indigo for ten minutes.
Scientists suggest that there is a major connection between tinnitus and food. Unwanted ear sounds can be a
symptom of arteriosclerosis or high blood pressure. These diseases are very often the result of poor diet. An
abundance of animal protein, especially red meat, refined flours and sugars, and processed foods constrict the
arteries and stress the body.
Foods and Diet
A three-day fruit and vegetable juice fast can clear the ear of clogging mucus. Thereafter, a four-week therapy of
garlic juice, which lowers blood pressure and dilates and relaxes tiny blood vessels, is an effective treatment
when combined with a predominantly vegetarian, whole foods diet including plenty of raw vegetables and fruit.
Drastically reducing the intake of saturated fats, vegetable shortening and margarine can produce a dramatic
improvement in hearing. Avoid sugar, which promotes tinnitus by provoking adrenalin release, which, in turn,
causes vasoconstriction in the inner ear.
Increasing dietary magnesium and potassium (good sources are apricots, baked potatoes, bananas, beets, leafy
greens, and nuts) and taking a daily multivitamin-mineral plus separate supplements may help compensate for
the above-average nutrient needs of some tinnitus sufferers.
Food allergies may cause tinnitus in some people. Do some experimentation to determine if allergic reactions to
certain foods aggravate the affliction for you. For some individuals, caffeine or other stimulants, excess salt, or
the quinine in tonic water can trigger an episode of ear noise.

Nutritional Supplements
Vitamin B
Supplementing B vitamins, especially B12, B6 and B5 (pantothenic acid), often improves ear ringing.
Taking an additional 50 milligrams of B6 two or three times a day may help stabilize inner-ear fluids. It is found in
whole grain products, bananas, most fruits and vegetables, eggs, and dairy products.
Research has shown that a high percentage of people with tinnitus are deficient in vitamin B-12. Vitamin B12
deficiency has been reported to be common in people exposed to loud noise on the job who developed tinnitus
and hearing loss. Intramuscular injections of vitamin B12 reduced the severity of tinnitus in some of these
people. Injectable vitamin B12 is available only by prescription. The effect of oral vitamin B12 on tinnitus has not
been studied. Nutritionists recommend that you take 6 mcg of the vitamin daily. Vitamin B-12 can be found in
yeast, oysters, eggs, milk and milk products, fish, poultry and lamb.
Vitamin A
Vitamin A deficiency can cause inner-ear problems such as ear ringing, since this vitamin is important for the
membranes in the ear. . Good sources of vitamin A are oily fish, dark green leafy vegetables, blueberries, yellow
vegetables, and fruits (such as carrots, yams, oranges, apricots and cantaloupe). Vitamin A supplementation
(5,000 to 10,000 I U a day) may be at least partially effective against tinnitus.
Vitamin E
Vitamin E improves oxygen supply to the cells. Vitamin E is found in whole grain products, dried beans, green
leafy vegetables, fish, and eggs.
Choline
Choline (provided by two lecithin capsules at each meal or 2 tablespoons of brewer's yeast daily) has cleared
ear noises in less than 2 weeks for some patients with high blood pressure.
Zinc
Studies show that high doses of zinc sulfate can reduce or eliminate the ear sounds suffered by older patients.
Zinc supplements have been used to treat individuals who had both tinnitus and hearing loss (usually agerelated). Of those who had initially low serum levels of zinc, about 25% experienced an improvement in tinnitus
after taking zinc for three to six months. Do not take more than 80 milligrams daily without medical supervision.
Foods rich in zinc are: oysters, whole-grain cereals, beans, nuts, eggs, and fish.

Herbs and Other Remedies
Ginkgo Biloba
Ginkgo has been found useful in minimizing the distress of tinnitus. Two studies have found an extract of ginkgo
standardized to contain 24% flavone glycosides and 6% terpene lactones in the amount of 120 mg per day
useful for tinnitus sufferers, although other studies have failed to find ginkgo beneficial. Hundreds of European
studies have confirmed the use of standardized ginkgo extract for a wide variety of conditions associated with
aging, including tinnitus, vertigo, memory loss and poor circulation.
Ginkgo does not work in every case of tinnitus. But it has practically no side effects and it has benefits such as
effects on memory. So, this would be a herb to try first.
Ginkgo increases blood flow to the brain, which is one cause of tinnitus. Make sure that you're getting enough
ginkgo to be effective. Take 40 mg of the dried herb or take a dose of 120 milligrams daily (I to 2 tsp of the liquid
extract three times a day) of a concentrated, standardized ginkgo extract known as GBE (Ginkgo biloba extract).
Ginkgo works slowly, and it may take several weeks or even months before experiencing any relief.
According to a study done by the Department of Food Science at the University of Massachusetts, ginkgo leaf
extract may be effective for the treatment of tinnitus. Ginkgo extract is widely prescribed by holistic healers as a
treatment for a range of health issues including memory and concentration problems, confusion, depression,
anxiety, dizziness, tinnitus and headache.
Sesame
Sesame seeds have been used by Chinese herbalists for the treatment of tinnitus, blurred vision and dizziness.
It is also used in Indian Ayurvedic treatment. You can add it to foods. Other forms of sesame are tahini, the
peanut-butter-like spread made from sesame seeds, and halvah, a popular sesame candy.
Black cohosh
There are anecdotal evidence that black cohosh is useful in alleviating tinnitus. Use in the form of a decoction
two to three times daily, three ml of tincture, or two capsules of the crushed root. Many herbalists recommend
that black cohosh be used in combination with ginkgo for best results.
The Encyclopedia of Medicinal Plants categorizes tinnitus as a nerve condition that can benefit from black
cohosh. Additionally, The Illustrated Encyclopedia of Natural Remedies suggests black cohosh as an herbal
remedy for blood congestion or pressure in the head.
Goldenseal
Goldenseal may help some cases of tinnitus. Do not use goldenseal if you are pregnant. Herbalists recommend
the use of goldenseal and black cohosh in combination (1:1).
Lesser Periwinkle (Vinca minor)
The lesser periwinkle contains a compound known as vincamine. Extracts containing vincamine have been used
in Germany to help decrease tinnitus and Ménière's syndrome. Take 20 milligrams of dried herb three times a
day.
There are some severe side effects noted with overdosage of this herb. Severe drop in blood pressure was
reported. In animal tests, changes in blood counts were observed. If toxicity is suspected, gastrointestinal
emptying is one treatment. We recommend that if you take this herb, you should be under the care of a
professional.
Spinach (Spinacia oleracea) and other foods containing zinc.
Zinc deficiency is often associated with tinnitus and certain kinds of hearing loss (sensorineural). So, taking
spinach and other foods containing zinc may be beneficial in the treatment of tinnitus. Good sources of zinc
include spinach (the best), papaya, collards, brussels sprouts, cucumbers, string beans, endive, cowpeas,
prunes and asparagus.

Sunflower Seeds
An old Chinese remedy calls for eating sunflower seeds and drinking a tea brewed from their hulls for tinnitus.
Fenugreek Seed Tea
Drinking a cup of fenugreek seed tea each morning, noon, and night is reported to abolish disturbing ear noises.
Castor Oil
Folk remedies for tinnitus include putting three or four drops of castor oil in each ear once a day and inserting a
cotton plug.
Onion Juice
A folk remedy for tinnitus is using 1 drop of onion juice three times a week until relieved, then once each week or
10 days for maintenance.
Passion flower
Passion flower extract regulates neurotransmitters and circulation.
Ramson juice
Sometimes, tinnitus is related to constipation. In this case, taking 1 tbsp. of ramson juice daily to clear the large
intestine may help.
Horsetail
Supplementation with vegetal silica, an aqueous extract from horsetail, has been found to decrease tinnitus.
Take 3-4 capsules daily.
Mistletoe tea
Mistletoe tea increases blood circulation. Mix 3 cups of cold water and 3 tsp. of mistletoe herb. Let stand
overnight. Next morning strain, warm up and drink 3 cups daily unsweetened.
Plantain
Fresh plantain extract is an excellent remedy for the ears. Drink 2 tbsp. of juice three times daily for six weeks.
Regularly rinse ears with plantain or calendula infusion. Dry ears well with a cotton swab and place dry cotton in
ear to avoid chilling.
Hawthorn
The Illustrated Encyclopedia of Natural Remedies suggests hawthorn as a remedy for tinnitus due to it being a
tonic for the circulatory system.
Melatonin
To address tinnitus related sleep disturbances, melatonin combined with Sulodexide is a viable treatment option
for patients suffering from central or sensorineural tinnitus, according to study conducted by the University of
Chieti-Pescara on managing tinnitus.
Chinese Herbs
Coptis and Rhubarb Combination (San-huang-hsieh-hsin-tang): Prescribed for tinnitus due to
hypertension.
Major bupleurum: Recommended for the obese.
Rehmannia eight: Choice for the elderly.
Herbs to Avoid
If tinnitus bothers you, avoid aspirin or aspirin-like herbs--willow bark, meadowsweet and wintergreen. High
doses of aspirin may cause ringing in the ears. Other herbs that are suspected to aggravate tinnitus include
cinchona, black haw and uva ursi.

Homeopathy
Homeopathic remedies and treatments for tinnitus by homeopathic practitioners include Calcarea
carbonica, Carbo vegetabilis, Cinchona officinalis (China), Chininum sulphuricum, Cimicifuga,
Coffea cruda, Graphites, Kali carbonicum, Lycopodium, Natrum salicylicum, and Salicylicum
acidum. Some of these remedies work for some people.
Relaxation Therapies
Massage therapy, Meditation, Yoga, and Biofeedback
Stress relief and relaxation therapies are helpful in easing the discomfort and pain of tinnitus.
Massage applied to the head, neck and chest is suggested.
Sound Therapy
White noise machines. Sound tapes (rainfalls, ocean waves, humming, chants, wind sounds, etc.).
Sound therapy is used as a way to mask or distract from the annoying noises associated with
tinnitus.
Tinnitus Retraining Therapy (TRT)
Tinnitus Retraining Therapy is a counseling technique used to teach tinnitus sufferers how to
refocus their attentions away from the ill effects of tinnitus. Results from clinical study overseen
by the Department of Veteran Affairs indicated that TRT was significantly more effective in
comparison to traditional counseling or non-treatment.
Vitamins and Minerals
Deficiencies in magnesium and potassium have been linked with tinnitus.
Zinc deficiency is also associated with some people experiencing tinnitus, especially the elderly.
Four out of five small studies indicated that administration of zinc had a beneficial effect on
relieving tinnitus.
Rich in vitamin B, E, and folic acid, sesame seeds are prescribed by herbalists as a nutritional
supplement for people with vitamin deficiencies associated with ringing in the ears.
