Meniere's Disease

What you need to know:

This is a desperate condition. In addition to the symptoms listed above, severe sufferers may experience ‘drop attacks’ when, without any warning, they fall to the ground. Because attacks of meniere’s disease are totally unpredictable, it can be seriously socially disruptive. Sufferers may become agoraphobic and isolated. As a result, they often get severely depressed. This condition may be helped by herbs, supplements and complementary therapies.

The most useful Supplements:

Homoeopathy

The homoeopathic remedies Lycopodium, Carbo veg, Graphites and Salicylic acid could also be effective.

Dietary changes that may be beneficial:

Dietary changes are vital to reduce mucus congestion, minimise fluid retention and maximise blood flow to the hearing and balance mechanisms in the ear. So cut down on dairy products, drastically reduce salt intake, drink less coffee and tea and no alcohol and eat plenty of fruit, vegetable, nuts, seeds and oily fish. The best therapies are Osteopathy or chiropractic, cranial Osteopathy, Acupuncture and Naturopathy.
