Migraines
Q: What can trigger a Migraine?
A: Stress, fatigue, anxiety, lack of sleep, environmental conditions, food allergies and the weather can play a part in triggering a migraine. Stress in particular can be a major influence. For example, a delayed reaction to stress can wake people up in the middle of the night with a migraine. However, some scientists believe that certain foods can be responsible as well. Chemical substances called tyramines are amino acids that occur naturally in some foods. Tyramines cause constriction of the arteries, which is the initial phase in the course of a migraine. Some foods that contain tyramines are: alcoholic beverages, vinegar, cured meats, pork, and chocolate.
Motion Sickness
Q: Why does motion sickness occur?
A: Motion sickness occurs when conflicting messages are sent to the brain. When the body is subjected to accelerated movement, the inner ear sends information to the brain that conflict with the visual indication that the body is still standing or sitting still. For example, reading while riding in a car sends the message to your brain of no movement, yet your inner ear detects the movement of the car and this is what can make you feel ill.
Q: Are there steps I can take to help ease motion sickness?
A: Yes. Seeking areas of lesser movement in the interior of a plane (above the wing near a window) and looking outside can help. On a ship, (middle of the boat or on the deck) facing forward and looking out at the horizon may be helpful. While riding in a car, sitting in the front seat looking straight ahead at the distant scenery can make a difference. Try to avoid rapid changes in position and extreme head motion.

Sinuses and Congestion
Q: What exactly are the sinuses?
A: The sinuses are hollow air passageways located in the bones surrounding the eyes and nose. They produce mucus that drains into the nasal cavity. Their primary function is to provide warmth and moisture for inhaled air.
Q: What causes blockages of these nasal passageways?
A: Nasal congestion can result from allergies, injury, bacterial or viral infections such as tonsillitis, colds and sore throat, swimming and poor oral hygiene.
Q: What can aggravate sinus congestion?
A: Smoking, alcohol and damp weather can aggravate congestion. Diet can play a role as well. Excessive dairy products and carbohydrates may produce excess mucus.
Q: What is swimmer's ear?
A: Swimmer's ear is an itchy, painful infection of the external ear canal. After long periods of swimming
diving, water can get trapped in the ear canal. The ear canal can then become inflamed and
swollen. This can soften and break down the skin lining, creating a perfect environment for bacteria
to breed.
Q: What are the Eustachian tubes?
A: The tube that connects the middle ear to the pharynx. It allows the pressure on the inner side of the
eardrum to remain equal to the pressure externally.
Q: What exactly is an allergic reaction?
A: An allergic reaction is an improper response of the immune system to a substance that is normally
not harmful. Allergens are the substances that trigger an allergic response.
Q: What are some allergens that can cause nasal congestion in an allergic response?
A: Some common allergens such as pollen, grass pollen, dust, mold and some foods can trigger nasal
congestion as an allergic response. When the mucosal lining of the sinuses becomes congested,
discomfort such as pain and inflammation may result.

Tinnitus
Q: What is tinnitus?
A: Sometimes categorized as a "ringing in the ears," tinnitus is the medical term for hearing sounds
within the ear when there are no external sounds present. Hearing buzzing, hissing, roaring, whistling,
humming are all indications that something has gone awry in the auditory system. Ranging from
constant to intermittent, the level of symptoms can vary from annoying to very severe and
debilitating.
Q: What causes tinnitus?
A: The exact physiological and neurological causes of tinnitus are not known but there is some speculation that it may be caused by some of the following: wax build up, middle ear or sinus infections, perforated eardrums, exposure to extreme loud noises, jaw misalignment, thyroid disorders, head and neck injuries, certain medications and excessive use of alcohol and aspirin.
Q: What is Clear Tinnitus made from?
A: Clear Tinnitus contains a unique all natural proprietary blend of 13 herbs formulated to work in combination with active homeopathic ingredients to provide temporary relief from Tinnitus.
Q: How long does it take for Clear Tinnitus to work?
A: We have some customers that have felt a reduction in their Tinnitus as quickly as a week and others as long as two months. The average
is 4 to 6 weeks.
Q: What dosage should I be taking?
A: The recommended dosage is 1 to 2 capsules two times per day not to exceed 6 capsules per day. Once the desired results are achieved the daily dosage may be reduced to maintain an effective level.
Q: Is Clear Tinnitus safe?
A: Clear Tinnitus is safe for seniors and young adults. It will not raise blood pressure or increase heart rate, cause drowsiness and is non-habit forming.
Q: I am on prescription medications - Can I take Clear Tinnitus?
A: Clear Tinnitus is very safe and will not interact with most medications. If you have a specific health issue or medicine interaction concern you should speak to your Physician, Healthcare Practitioner or call to speak with our licensed Herbalist toll free at (888)257-2532.
Q: Is Clear Tinnitus a cure?

Q: Does Clear Tinnitus work on everyone?
A: Unfortunately Clear Tinnitus does not work on everyone. However, a clinical study has been conducted on our product that tested the effectiveness of the whole formula and you may read the results for yourself by clicking here.
Q: Is there anything else I could be doing to help relieve my Tinnitus?
A: Diet can play a big role in reducing Tinnitus. Caffeine, nicotine, and alcohol can worsen Tinnitus as well as high sugar foods and quinine. A variety of medicinal drugs such as aspirin, antibiotics, and antihistamines can also raise Tinnitus levels. Exposure to loud noises over the course of an 8-hour workday should be avoided as well as loud noises from jet engines, gunshots, jackhammers, chainsaws, loud music and industrial machinery. Stressful situations also often aggravate tinnitus.
Q: Is there medical treatment for tinnitus?
A: Currently there is no medical treatment for tinnitus and there is no standard drug or medical procedure that cures Tinnitus.
Q: Are there alternative treatments available?
A: There are many options for alternative treatments. They work differently for each individual. A qualified health care practitioner can determine whether your tinnitus is due to an ear condition or to other medical conditions. Depending on the case, hearing tests may be conducted as well. Your healthcare professional can also help you decide which treatment may work the best for you.
Q: What kinds of alternative treatments are available?
A: Any type of relaxation technique can help you cope. Some tinnitus sufferers have reported that biofeedback has helped them temporarily. Similar claims have also been made for meditation, acupuncture and hypnosis. Some patients have reported significant improvement with a new clinical approach called Tinnitus Retraining Therapy (TRT). A combination of low level broad-band noise and counseling enables the patient to no longer be aware of their tinnitus condition. Even when they focus on it, the tinnitus is not exasperating or bothersome. Find out about a tinnitus self help group that can offer you support as well as more information about treatments and techniques.
