I have mentioned various parts of this herbal regime before. I started with the 6 herbs recommended by German doctors for heart health.
It enabled me to pass an echocardiogram for the first time. The second test almost 2 years later improved my left ventricle score to 60% which as I understand it is spectacular. for someone who can remember President Truman.
They are garlic, cayenne, Milk Thistle, Hawthorn Berry, Bilberry and Ginkgo Biloba.
To improve the epithelium which wraps around the blood vessels I take liposomal Glutathione and lots of vitamin C and a variety of bioflavonoids. I also take Nattokinase to dissolve blood clots. My doctor wants me to take a leg vein mapping test which is an echocardiogram for my legs to see if I have clots in my legs.
To improve my gut barrier which is also one cell layer thick but wraps around my colon and intestines I take vitamin B Complex, a high fiber diet and probiotics. I also take prebiotics as well. Kefir, Apple Cider vinegar and fermented vegetables are good dietary sources for probiotics. Of course you can get probiotics in capsules. This was recommended to me by Dr Rhonda Patrick.

Of course hoses never were allowed into medical school in my day but I suppose I could get into medical school on a diversity program today though I might be older than their oldest professor emeritus!

I'd be happy to find a remedy for tinnitus. Ginkgo Biloba is supposed to be one remedy (aids in circulation) but never noted any improvement. Maybe needs more time, but I also understand diagnosing tinnitus is a lot like diagnosing an engine that won't start in that there are many dozens of possible causes.

5. Avoid Overly Using Prescriptions, Drugs or Alcohol
Research shows that some medications and drugs, even over-the-counter painkillers, can make tinnitus worse. Using recreational drugs (especially when pregnant, which can damage a fetus’s nerves), smoking and drinking too much alcohol are also tied to tinnitus.
Talk to your doctor about changing your medication, lowering your dose or finding another way to manage any conditions you might have. Medications that can contribute to ear damage and cause tinnitus include:
Antibiotics: polymyxin B, erythromycin, vancomycin and neomycin
Cancer medications: mechlorethamine and vincristine
Diuretics: bumetanide, ethacrynic acid or furosemide
Quinine medications
Some antidepressants
Aspirin when taken in high doses (usually 12 or more a day)
6. Reduce Inflammation and Chronic Stress
Stress and high levels of inflammation both seem to raise the risk for ear problems, including ear infections, hearing loss and vertigo. On top on that, stress can make tinnitus symptoms worse by changing how your brain reacts to noises it hears.
Research regarding using cognitive behavioral therapy for tinnitus shows that tolerance to tinnitus can be facilitated by “reducing levels of autonomic nervous system arousal, changing the emotional meaning of the tinnitus, and reducing other stresses.” (6) It’s been found that there’s some overlap in anxiety and tinnitus due to an association between subcortical brain networks involved in hearing sounds, attention, distress and memory functions.
A poor diet, sedentary lifestyle, lack of sleep and chronic stress are all capable of reducing immunity and making you susceptible to nerve damage, allergies and ear problems. If you frequently experience seasonal or food allergies that affect your ears, ear infections, swelling and other problems related to damage of the vestibular system, consider changing your diet, exercise routine and ways of dealing with stress, which in turn will aid your tinnitus treatment. Try natural stress relievers like exercising, yoga, meditation, taking warm baths, using essential oils and spending more time outdoors, and eat an anti-inflammatory diet.
(Look up anti-inflammatory diet separately.

Someone I know here living at this high altitude (8200 feet) says his tinnitus goes away if he goes to sea level for a week.

I guess the answer is no, you don't know what caused your case. A friend with the condition says his started with lots of shooting practice without ear protection, exacerbated by things like an oil changing incident when the stuff shot into his ear.

Not that I know of. Lower altitude is a denser atmosphere so maybe more O2 saturation. Specifically, he would go to the jungle, so he could be inhaling some weird pollen. But based on what I understand, I'd say it's something to do with air pressure.

Mine came mostly from unprotected gunfire in my ignorant youth. It's been the hardest challenge I've ever faced in life, and I've been cut up and beat up pretty bad.
Can't stand noise of any kind now, so I have to avoid noisy people and noisy places.
I used to try to change the world. Now I just want to get away from it.
