There is very little research ongoing for Meniere’s Disease that we hear of. But with the Gene research in the US and The Sydney research center in Australia and now this, things seem to be moving finally….
It took a 17 year old High School boy in L.A. to come up with the discovery of the presence of cochlin (a protein unique to the inner ear) in vestibular endorgans obtained at surgery from patients diagnosed with Meniere’s disease.”
Malhotra, the student, said: “If we can find a way to fix these proteins that are malfunctioning or possibly open the passages, then we can get rid of this disease or at least lessen the severity of it. Meniere’s can definitely be crippling. It is difficult to function in society.” (How come a 17 year old school boy understands this yet so many doctors do not??
We should all give him a huge thank you and encouragement to succeed and wish him all the best. We may owe him a great deal. Read about the Meniere’s research here
This lady combined supplementation and diet changes for a yeast overgrowth with Chiropractics to free herself of Meniere’s symptoms
Hi Michael,
Sorry for the delay in replying to you.
I am doing much better these days. I was taking the supplements for over 4 months without any improvement and not being able to pinpoint any factors which was my trigger. Someone told me about a doctor in Belfast who no longer worked for the NHS as he took a more alternative therapy view on health, a more holitic approach. I attended his clinic about 3 months ago and after a consultation and some investigations he diagnosed my problem as candida overgrowth. For this he put me on supplements to deal with the bacteria overgrowth and a strict diet (no yeast, no diary, no sugar). He also had me attend a chiropractor as he felt my neck had alot of tension in it which could be triggering some of my dizziness/vertigo. Since I have been on this diet & supplements and finished course of chiropractor treatment i am feeling much better, more energy, no vertigo in 2 months, sleeping better….just feeling like my old self again! The only thing that still bothers me at times is the tinnitus but i can live with that!
Thanks once again for the help and support i received from yourself and Karin

Hi Mike,
I am doing well, feeling better and stronger generally. I am taking my tablets, staying off wine and bitter, if I do drink, I drink a good lager.
I have cut right back on salt, but still indulge in coffee. I feel least good when I am walking for some reason with my head fuzzy and I find it difficult to go in a straight line!

Hi Michael,
I have been great four a couple of years now but have had a set back over the last few months.
I was worried about keeping on taking the supplements constantly so given that I felt ok i let things slide
and stopped taking the tablets. Needless to say within a week or so I had bad dizziness and hopeless hearing in my left
ear and I was back on the phone for more supplies and have been back on the pills for four weeks now.
I would say I am still a long way short of where i was before I stopped taking the pills. So, any more ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Best regards,
Malcolm Hewitt

Hi Michael,
Now into my fourth month of taking the supplements. Feeling great. Lots of energy, no dizzy spells and a clear head. Still have the tinnitus and poor hearing in my right ear but these are very definitely at livable levels. Am also finding that I don’t need to be quite so careful with the salt intake. Of course, I am careful most of the time but if I have a meal out for example I don’t notice it. I can also enjoy a glass of wine now!
Here’s a funny thing: I normally eat mostly a vegetarian diet as my partner is vegetarian but lately I’ve been really craving meat and fish.
Many thanks
Lizzie
