In order to deal properly with Meniere's disease we need to understand and — if possible — remove the underlying causes and risk factors. We need to ask: "What else is going on inside the body that might allow Meniere's disease to develop?"
Accurate diagnosis of the factors behind Meniere's disease consists of three steps:
Cause | Probability | Status |
---|---|---|
Food Allergies | 96% | Confirm |
Poor Circulation | 27% | Unlikely |
Hay Fever | 1% | Ruled out |
Autoimmune Tendency | 1% | Ruled out |
Need For Dietary Improvement | 1% | Ruled out |
Have you suffered from Meniere's Disease (inner ear fluid imbalance / vertigo / tinnitus / hearing loss)?
Possible responses:
→ Never had it / not sure / don't know→ Probably had it / minor episode(s) now resolved → Major episode(s) now resolved → Current minor problem → Current major problem |
Several studies have found a strong connection between inhalant allergies and Meniere's Disease.
Several studies demonstrate a strong link between food allergies and Meniere's Disease.
About 60% of patients with Meniere's disease are found to have antibodies for inner ear proteins.
Various dietary deficiencies can cause endolymphatic hydrops (excess fluid) in the inner ear.
Circulatory irregularities can cause excess fluid in the inner ear.
