Vitamins to Help Tinnitus: Is This the Complete Truth?
Read revealing facts about the effectiveness of vitamins in the tinnitus treatment RIGHT HERE
Vitamins to help Tinnitus is a good idea but help would prove ideal for those who suffer from vitamin deficiency. The help may turn to hindrance when vitamin is not needed by the patient. There is already much hullabaloo about the actual necessity of vitamins for average persons and so there is no point in complicating the issue further. Vitamin therapy, if recommended, should preferably be more oriented towards helping the contributory factors of tinnitus than giving emphasis on overall help. As for regulating the dosage, one should be especially alert about vitamins that can not be stored in the body (like B vitamins) and therefore has to be replenished as and when required.
Tinnitus contributing factors
1. Sinus congestion
2. Cochlear nerve damage
3. Heightened stress level all the while
4. Poor circulation of blood in head and neck region
Group of vitamins seemingly helpful to tinnitus patents: B-group
* The first B-group vitamin that comes to mind in relation to tinnitus is Thiamine that is vitamin B-1. Thiamine supplements are commonly consumed by most tinnitus patients.
* The next in popularity is vitamin B-3 (Niacin, Niacinamide, Nicotinic acid). This vitamin is known support blood circulation in the head and neck region, lack of which aggravates tinnitus considerably. B-3's beneficial effect on the central nervous system is well known to all and so is much preferred by people suffering cochlear nerve disease which is nothing but tinnitus. Vitamin B-3 further helps tinnitus patients by breaking down carbohydrates, fats and protein, thus helping appropriate nutrition to them. Vitamin B-3 for tinnitus patients may start with 50 mg twice a day that can be enhanced to 500 mg at the rate of 50 mg increase every week. But the intake may be stopped after that if no appreciable effect is observed at that point. In fact, it should be withdrawn forthwith as it probably does not seem to suit the patient.
* Equally effective like the B-3 is vitamin B-6 (Pyridoxine) that is required in production of SEROTONIN, a type of brain neurotransmitter which can control pain sensitivity, mood change, equilibrium stability and many more. No wonder that this vitamin is widely used by tinnitus patients in encountering vertigo, giddiness, depression and related physical as well as psychic problems.
* Then there is that wonder vitamin known to tinnitus patients as Cobalamin or Cynocobalamin which in reality is vitamin B-12. As this particular vitamin deficiency is generally observed in elderly patients suffering from chronic tinnitus, an experiment was launched to see the effect of vitamin on a group of tinnitus patients in ages ranging from 60 to 70. As expected, the result was miraculous as most of the patients showed remarkable recovery within record time. However, the only problem with vitamin B-12 is its low absorption rate in the body for which the dosage needs hiking. Alternatively, vitamin B-12 may be injected into the body, thereby ensuring speedy absorption and lower wastage.
* another significant member of B group of vitamins consist of Folic Acid that is known to possess the requisite power to stabilize the middle ear nerve endings since it has enough influence on the central nervous system. In fact, it has the power to drastically reduce the phantom sounds in the ear by alleviating the cochlear nerve endings in a simple way. What really happens is that when the nerves become steady, they stop remitting random impulses to the brain receptor. And as these become free of haphazard impulses, they in turn stop transmitting agonizing sound waves to the middle ear.
* Zinc in vitamin form is also prescribed for tinnitus patients who suffer from this deficiency.
Leaving aside the vitamins that are described above and are mostly used as supplements, some other vitamins serve as antioxidants that control the symptoms of tinnitus by way of halting the harms caused by the free radicals that are routinely produced in our bodies as by-products.
Free radicals not only cause innumerable harm to the system, they also give rise to various disorders that include hearing problems and tinnitus. Vitamin C which is also known as Ascorbic Acid, however, can protect the system from the ravages of these free radicals. As this brand of vitamin is fully water soluble, its dosage difference creates no problem. Any 'over-dose' can be automatically neutralized as the excess vitamin passes away through the urine.
Also helpful to tinnitus patients is yet another vitamin known as vitamin E which is fairly potent in providing protection against free radicals and helping the nervous system. It is especially helpful to the cochlear nerve endings of the inner ear. Out of the two major forms of vitamin E forms, only one can be absorbed in the body which is known as alpha-tocopherol isomer. Tocotrienols on the other hand may not be that efficient.
Why Vitamins to Help Tinnitus may not be just enough
Vitamins do provide help to tinnitus patients but that help is restricted to the symptoms and not to curing of the disease. As a matter of fact, no vitamin, OTC medication, herbal formulation or homeopathic cure has yet been found to treat the inherent disease condition which merely manifest in symptoms that produce various phantom sound effects. As for the disorder, the only way to freedom from it lies in taking holistic course of treatment which will eventually eliminate it from the body for good.
