Unfortunately I’ve had ringing in my ears for over 30 yrs. I don’t drink tea or soda and have 1/2 cup of coffee while I relax in the morning after getting up. I have the “normal” aging stuff - arthritis etc but was graced with an autoimmune deficiency a few years ago, burning mouth syndrome after extensive dental work, Grover’s disease with constant itching and meniere’s and they all cause me constant irritation of one sort or another. I then read other posts of conditions much worse and life threatening than mine and that’s when I thank the Lord for my blessings and not my curses. I do make sure I get my checkups and try others suggestions for helping my “stuff” so that’s also important to stay on top of and of course try and stay positive. 💗
Wow, your comment intrigues me. My husband who was part of Desert Storm was assigned to scud missiles and now suffers from tinnitus.
Based on your comment an alkaline diet played a key role in helping you with your tinnitus.
My husband loves coffee and drinks a cup or two a day and an occasional coke.
We have made dietary adjustments and exercise changes that has made a tremendous improvement on our health and wellbeing.
Thanks to you I will be reading more on the alkaline diet and work on weaning my beautiful husband off of coffee. 😁
Thank you so much for sharing!
This is good advice. A few months ago, after being a lover of coffee ever since I could remember, I gave it up. Stopped going to my favorite coffee shop. The first week of withdrawal was rough. But by the second week, I felt so good. Energy level went through the roof! No afternoon slump to go and have a cup.
So I like your post. Even change one thing can make a difference. For me it was coffee.
