My question is... I don't have the ringing and i'm looking for people who also have the heartbeat sound with not ringing. Are the treatments the same for both the ringing and heartbeat sound or are they treated differently? I've always taken ACV but i'm going to get more consistant with it and hope it helps. I guess i'm just surprised to hear that this is tinnitus. I figured it was just fluid in the ears.
Thanks for any help and thank you Earthclinic for an amazing, informative website. We need more like this. Colleen

UPDATE: Since my last comment I started drinking apple cider vinegar regularly. Actually, right after I hit send I went and took 3 big swigs of ACV chased with water. Within the hour the 3 day pulsing had stopped in my left ear. I've done it everyday since and the most I get is the feeling that I could be on the verge of it pulsing again. I just take another swig and I keep it at bay. BIG YES for ACV!!!! I will ALWAYS drink ACV now just to prevent this tinnitus! ColleenReplied by Colleen (Greenwich, Ny, Us) on 04/28/2013
UPDATE: In addition to taking ACV daily I now have added a tsp of cayenne pepper in orange juice every morning. It has worked perfect!!! I read that pulsatile tinnitus is due to artery weakness or an obstruction in the arteries, so I thought would be proactive and try to strengthen my heart and arteries. That's where the cayenne comes in and I''ll do it forever!!! So happy! Hope somebody else can benefit from my discovery!!!Replied by Ella (London) on 04/14/2022
It's pulsatile tinnitus, which can be caused by a number of things including blocked arteries, high blood pressure, etc.
Ginger, vitamin K2, garlic, and nattokinase can help clear arteries. Dark chocolate and green tea can help to relax artery walls. Medically supervised water fasting can clear arteries and lower blood pressure too.
