Hair cells in the inner ears are very fragile. Adequate hydration is important as the hair(shaped) cells are in a jelly like goo and magnesium would be part of the good. So would sodium and potassium so maybe my low sodium is adding to it for me currently and the xylitol is the camel hair trigger.
The CoV crowd on Twitter before I got squelched worse found eating tuna a lot more helped with taste/smell recovery. It is a rich source of methyl B12 I found on checking it's benefits.
I was tapping a bunch last night. After reading a book about the Illuminate/whoever's. It really does help work out bad vibes, let the pus out - can hurt a bit during but eases the situation overall.
I'm reviewing for a short Substack on magnesium and CVD. Migraines are in the literature, and that Mg deficiency is quite often not in isolation but frequently linked to hypokalaemia and vitamin D deficiency. Mg activates D and these work with K2 for calcium balance.
Why do we need to activate D to help with inner ear conditions? I was looking into this for a relation:
The Price of Immune Responses and the Role of Vitamin D in the Inner Ear
If demyelination is involved, then CoQ10 may be lacking - 'Coenzyme Q10 enhances remyelination and regulate inflammation effects of cuprizone in corpus callosum of chronic model of multiple sclerosis' https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33245472/
Too much stress, smoking, or other sources of formaldehyde (aged bottled juices) along with low CoQ10 would increase risk of demyelination. I really do need to cut down or stop smoking but that has never worked well for me either.
Opposite Roles of Co-enzyme Q10 and Formaldehyde in Neurodegenerative Diseases
*I have a partial webpage on the topic of demyelination and basic malnutrition - lack of many nutrients, seemed to be a big risk factor. The page is on effectivecare.info.
Awesome I have been using skullcap in my structured water infrared suntea. It has a little rooibus for flavor, pom peel,and powdered yarrow to help prevent the plague ;-)
Re: pumpkin seeds. Walter just posted about these and their squalene content. As an adjuvant it can make you very ill but as a supplement it appears to be very useful.
Manufactured from plant waste products - think wheat, rice, wood, any plant waste, corn, cobs and ETHANOL viz Xylitol is an ALCOHOL derived from SUGAR. So why wouldn't it be addicting? Due to laxative effect (>50gms pd), in the EU it's banned from soft drinks.
It's specifically an alditol, which is a polyol, which certain types can be used to make polyurethanes, polyester, styrofoam. Let's dig deeper...
In the resource intensive chemically catalyzed process method, nickel aluminum alloy and chemicals such as acid are involved. But it gets better...
If fermented in a bioreactor - advancements in biotechnology, such as the isolation of novel microorganisms, genetic manipulation of xylose metabolizing strains, and modifications in the fermentation process, can enhance the economic feasibility of xylitol production on the large scale viz random mutagenesis and genetic engineering approaches are employed to develop genetically engineered bacterial strains which enhance the process.
Natural sources including the body itself are one thing. Mass bio-vat production. Where have I heard about that lately? Nothing could go wrong there. As far as food goes, beets & cane are sounding better and better. But 6 pieces or gms a day for gingivitis couldn't hurt?
Xylitol is a normal intermediate of human metabolism, and the human body produces nearly 5 to 15 g daily, with nearly 80% metabolized by the LIVER. Call it 10gm, so an extra 6gms (60%) or alot more, might have unintended effects?
Increased xylitol consumption can increase oxalate, calcium, and phosphate excretion to urine (termed oxaluria, calciuria, and phosphaturia, respectively). These are known risk factors for kidney stone disease. See METABOLISM & ADVERSE EFFECTS https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xylitol
uh oh. I knew I shouldn't have bought more but there was an email. I am such a sucker for advertising or prompts.
The ringing/pulsing feeling came back with just one or two last night and I only had one today, yes, it seems a problem for me. I will stop using them. I am feeling lots better.
I like your help, thank you NN. The Rustyback tea has seemed to help, and I felt less headachy after adding some salt back . . . and my legs aren't puffed up. Yeah!
Geoff Pain great info. Your welcome JD. Some brands say 38% xylitol or fill in the blank - that's the overall % of the product. Nellies says 100% - that's the sweetener % - and 1GM per piece with recommended 6 pieces pd. If one wants the oral bacteria benefit, no need to throw the baby out with the bath water. Like anything else, sometimes one takes the good with the bad. The key is moderation and sometimes less is more. Cut the dosage and see what happens (sounds like you already did). Don't deprecate yourself, trial and error, that's how most experience is gained viz mistakes. We all make them the bad, the good and plenty.
Hello Jennifer, you might like my old article on Tinnitus
https://geoffpain.substack.com/p/tinnitus-caused-by-endotoxin-in-mrna
Very helpful, thanks! The graphic in particular fits with info Nattering Naybob shared in a reply https://open.substack.com/pub/denutrients/p/tinnitus-insulin-resistance-type?r=os7nw&utm_campaign=comment-list-share-cta&utm_medium=web&comments=true&commentId=50726519
Look up the documentary
Sweet Misery regarding aspartame.
For salt, ever tried Himalayan Pink? Good stuff.
I have chronic tinnitus and take Serc, but I will star Magnesium today. Any other recommendations
Saffron may help tinnitus.

I'm glad you found EFT to be helpful. I've used it and related techniques for more than 25 years. Good stuff.

And the methyl B12
This is why, although we should get everything through diet🤣, we have our daily stacks of Q10, C, D, Zn, Mg, K2, B vits, flavonoids etc

Yes, insurance policy. I need to fill my vitamin boxes. this is day three or four of putting it off.... uh oh.
I need to do my own care and stop worrying about other people.
