Is Lipoflavonoid the Best Treatment for Your Tinnitus?

Lipoflavonoid (Lipo) is a proprietary Meniere's disease treatment that is sometimes also used to treat people suffering from tinnitus. But the question is whether or not it really works, and how it compares to other, more holistic treatments for tinnitus. Is Lipoflavonoid or Tinnitus Miracle more likely to provide a complete tinnitus cure for you?

Lipo was developed in the 1960's. Since then, it has been shown to be effective in treating the symptoms of Meniere's disease. One of the symptoms of this disease is a form of tinnitus. According to a research paper published in Otology, Rhinology and Laryngology in 1963, in a study of 197 patients, a significant percentage of those treated with Lipo showed improvements in their hearing. This seems to make a powerful case for using Lipo to treat other forms of tinnitus as well. But there's one little fly in the ointment.

In 1966, the Audiology Center of Walter Reed Hospital conducted a double-blind, placebo-controlled study of the effects of the active ingredient of Lipo on people with hearing loss that was not associated with Meniere's Disease. Of all the study participants who took Lipo, how many showed improvement? None of them. The only person in the study who did show improvement was in the group given a placebo! As you can imagine, this result was very disappointing to everyone involved.

To summarize, people whose tinnitus is related to Meniere's Disease may benefit from the use of Lipoflavonoid. People whose tinnitus comes from other causes will probably not benefit from using this product.

Compare the Lipo results to those from Tinnitus Miracle. With its holistic approach to addressing all the varied causes of each person's tinnitus, the product has already helped thousands with a tinnitus treatment that can lead to a complete cure. Why settle for a treatment that covers only one tiny bit of the spectrum of tinnitus causes when you can hit them all at once?
