What food is better for tinnitus patients?
Usually, we should pay attention to eating less fat and sweets to prevent the accumulation of sputum and aggravate the condition. People with kidney deficiency and tinnitus should especially reduce the intake of warm and dry food. Eat foods that can promote blood circulation: foods that promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis can dilate blood vessels, improve blood viscosity, and help maintain the normal microcirculation of small blood vessels in the ear. You can often eat black fungus, leek, red wine, yellow wine and so on. Avoid mental stress and fatigue: When you are in a state of high mental stress or physical fatigue for a long time, it is easy to aggravate tinnitus, so it is beneficial to adjust the pace of work and relax. Avoid noise pollution: sudden loud noise and long-term noise contact may lead to hearing loss and tinnitus, so high-risk groups (working in high-intensity noise environment) should pay special attention to noise protection, such as wearing protective earmuffs and earplugs. In addition, don't use the walkman headset for a long time and at a high volume. Rational drug use: When patients with tinnitus see a doctor for other diseases, don't forget to tell the doctor that they have tinnitus. Because some drugs will aggravate your existing tinnitus symptoms. Eat more foods containing zinc: There are many factors leading to tinnitus and deafness, and zinc deficiency is an important reason. The content of zinc in cochlea is much higher than that in other organs, but the content of zinc in cochlea of the elderly over 60 years old is obviously reduced, which leads to hearing loss. Common foods rich in zinc are fish, beef, chicken, eggs, various seafood, apples, oranges, walnuts, cucumbers, tomatoes, Chinese cabbage, radishes and so on. Eat more foods rich in iron: Iron deficiency can easily harden red blood cells and reduce the ability to transport oxygen, resulting in insufficient nutrition supply to ears and hearing loss. Iron supplementation can effectively prevent and delay the occurrence of tinnitus and deafness in middle-aged and elderly people. Common foods with high iron content include laver, shrimp skin, black fungus, black sesame, bean products and so on.
