Hearing/Tinnitus FYI (caveat emptor)

It's weird and unpredictable for me. I choose not to eat spicy food due to a sensitive stomach from too much wine and Belgian Quads over the years. On the rare occasion I do, I sometimes experience no side effects, neither gastric nor tinnitus related. Yet other times, it's increased ringing for a few days. Interesting write-up on cannibinoid receptors. 

Everyone reacts to medications differently

The same for foods.

I ingest copious capsacin and have never noticed any correlation. Thanks for the heads up.

      Any chance that, "increased ringing" could be related to, or magnified by, something you've eaten, along with the, "rare occasion" spicy foods?

      Food allergies can cause a wide variety of symptoms and prove hard to pinpoint, without a bit of detective work.

@fuzztone -

                                                Absolutely!

     As with anything else, in this life/hobby; the variables are manifold.

I must have top grade tinnitus-it's just on  all the time.
