A few years ago, my husband Alan had vertigo. WE didn't know what it was, I called the paramedics, they took him to the hospital and diagnosed vertigo and gave him meclizine, (I think it's called that), What it actually does is make you sleepy so you don't get dizzy. I asked the pharmacist how it works and this is what he told me. OF course we followed up with a nose and throat guy who told Alan, NO MORE SALT!!!

So from that day on there was NO MORE SALT, in any shape or form in his diet. Slowly (very slowly) we introduced some products that have a small amount of sodium but he never uses salt on anything and I don't cook with it. But some stuff does contain things like 120 of the sodium. We don't go near any soups (they have something like 1200 of sodium. Are these companies crazy?

Now for the tinnitus. Alan has had that since the vertigo.

But in his case (and he does have tinnitus). But he hears like the heat is on.
like psssssssssssssssssssss.

amazing.

bye for now.
