Guest guest Posted February 3, 2009 Report Share Posted February 3, 2009 I have not had this situation in many many years but I recall using a hypoglycemic diet with some success. Stressing keeping an ounce of unsalted almonds handy for when the person felt an incident coming, not going more than 3 hours between meals (6 meal pattern).

Happy Friday I have a client whose wife was recently diagnosed with Menieres. From what I understand it's a form of virtigo and the diet recommendation is to limit sodium to 1g/day. I'm still looking into it, but was wondering if any of you have had to work with any individuals that have Meniers Disease and what you have done to help them, in terms of diet. I would greatly appreciate any and all insight. TIA! le Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 Dr. Gott's newspaper column had a recommendation from a pharmacist a few years ago for a supplement that was (testimonially) beneficial for people with Menieres. I saved the clipping for a friend and never got it sent to her and I have a feeling it's the one piece of clutter I've disposed of in recent history. Seems like it had flavonoles or flavonoids but I can't remember. I just accepted a position as a Nutrition Health Extension Agent at Fort Riley, Kansas so I am packing and sorting. With any luck, I didn't dispose of the article and will find it so I can report back!
