How to prevent tinnitus?

  With the change of people’s lifestyle and diet structure, coupled with the increase of noise pollution in the environment, the incidence of tinnitus is gradually increasing. Although there is no special prevention and care method for tinnitus, it is still necessary to pay attention to it from the aspect of diet according to the traditional Chinese medicine. We should pay attention to reduce the fatty and sweet diet to prevent the accumulation of phlegm and aggravate the disease. Patients with kidney deficiency should pay attention to dietary modification and avoid drinking strong tea, coffee, cola, wine and other stimulating drinks. After reasonable treatment and dietary conditioning, tinnitus can actually be cured after reasonable treatment and dietary conditioning.  First, the intake of fat should be reduced.  A large intake of such foods can increase blood lipids and blood viscosity, causing arteriosclerosis. The inner ear is most sensitive to blood supply disorders, and when blood circulation disorders occur, it can lead to a lack of nutrition in the auditory nerve, which can produce deafness. Therefore, the total daily fat intake of elderly people should be controlled at about 40 grams, and they should eat less of various animal offal, fatty oil, cream, egg yolk, fish roe, fried food and other foods containing fat.  Second, to eat more iron-rich food.  Iron deficiency tends to harden red blood cells, reduce the ability to transport oxygen, insufficient supply of nutrients to the ear, but hearing cell function is impaired, resulting in hearing loss. Iron supplementation, on the other hand, can effectively prevent and delay the occurrence of tinnitus and deafness in the elderly. According to the standard of iron requirement for different age groups in China, the daily intake of iron should not be less than 12 mg for people over 45 years old, regardless of gender. Commonly used foods, nori contains more iron per 100 grams of nori, 46.8 mg of iron per 100 grams of nori; per 100 grams of black sesame, jellyfish skin, shrimp, yellow cauliflower, black fungus, amaranth, respectively, 26.3 mg, 17.6 mg, 16.5 mg, 12.6 mg, 11.9 mg, 10.5; parsley, fungus iron content is slightly second to amaranth; per 100 grams The average iron content of soy products is about 4-6 mg.  Third, to eat more food containing zinc.  There are many causes of age-related deafness, and zinc deficiency is an important reason. The amount of zinc in the cochlea is considerably higher than that in other organs. The zinc content in the cochlea is significantly lower in people over 60 years old, which affects the function of the cochlea and leads to hearing loss. Foods rich in zinc include: fish, beef, pork liver, chicken, chicken liver, eggs, various seafood; apples, oranges, walnuts, cucumbers, tomatoes, cabbage, radishes, etc.  Fourth, you should always eat food with blood-activating effect.  Activating blood stasis can expand blood vessels and improve blood viscosity, which is conducive to maintaining normal microcirculation of small blood vessels in the ear. You can often eat black fungus, leek, etc., and often drink red wine, yellow wine, etc.  Five, to develop the habit of drinking milk.  Milk contains almost all known vitamins, there are vitamin A, vitamin D, vitamin B1, vitamin B2, vitamin B12, vitamin E and carotene. These vitamins are helpful in preventing and improving blood circulation and deafness symptoms along with the absorption and utilization of calcium.
