Normally it is not good business practice to talk about one’s competitors but I have been getting so many emails asking about this particular matter that I decided I need to check it out and report back to our readers.

The emails all referred to a web site curefortinnitus dot com which is marketing an ebook by Geoff Barker that offers you 11 proven tinnitus cures that work in less than 2 weeks…

Well, it sounded so wonderful that I just had to check it out and here are my findings:

In my opinion this site  curefortinnitus dot com is simply a site designed to milk tinnitus sufferers and it does a really good job of it.

• I bought the book - it is 24 double spaced pages of large type that cost me $37.00!
• A complete waste of my money and my time!
• There is simply nothing of substance in the book to justify the cost.
• I certainly could not find any of the proven tinnitus cures he speaks about at his website.

I decided to check some of the claims he makes at his web site against what is actually written in his book.

“I have put every Tinnitus remedy to the test and now the results are in… “ - If he has tested any remedies he is keeping those results a closely guarded secret - no results are even made mention of in the book!

“The best treatment for YOU (Get a personalized treatment on page 8)” - This sends you via an affiliate link to another web site that sells Brainwave audio products. This is the best tinnitus treatment for you? This is just to milk some more money out of tinnitus sufferers via his affiliate check.

  “The fastest way to STOP the ringing noise (discover this at page 9)” - Absolutely nothing about stopping ear ringing noises quickly just a general description of tinnitus…

“Get the 6 secret recipes that can stop YOUR Tinnitus (Look at this breakthrough on page 15)” - Well as hard as I looked, I couldn’t find a breakthrough! Just some homeopathic ingredient information that are said to have some benefit to tinnitus sufferers. This same information is available at all of the T-Gone product pages and our producy ingredient listing pages.

“Prevent Tinnitus the easy way (I bet you didn’t consider this every time you went to work! Live by the rules on page 17)” - Here are his rules “By far the most effective remedy is to lead a healthier lifestyle. As we mentioned before, paying close attention to diet and exercise, not smoking or drinking in excess, and simple lifestyle changes can do wonders for tinnitus.”

Maybe he read Ellen’s Free book on tinnitus which contains no fluff and is 120 pages long?

Proven remedies that can work for you. Choose from 11 Tinnitus remedies that you can perform yourself, right now in the office or at home. (Get hold of this priceless information on pages 18 - 24!) - Again this is just hype! I found no remedies to choose from…

And here are his remedies:

• Diet And Exercise: This has already been stated, but a healthier lifestyle is a surefire way to reduce your symptoms over the long run.
• Record A Soothing Sound: Many people notice that certain sounds help to alleviate the symptoms of their tinnitus, take running water for example. If you notice your tinnitus goes away when you’re taking a shower, record it and take it with you.
• Reduce Stress: Stress can really cause your tinnitus to flare up. Take time to relax, take some deep breathes, and do something that you really enjoy and find relaxing.
• Avoid Loud Noises: Again, common sense. But tinnitus can get worse over time. There is no reason to continue exposing yourself to loud noises and running the risk of aggravating your condition.
• Chew Dried Fruit: Not only is chewing dried fruit healthy, but it can also help to stimulate vascular activity around the inner ear and reduce your symptoms overall.
• Avoid Aspirin: Aspirin can be great as an antiinflammatory drug, but studies show that aspirin may also increase the symptoms of tinnitus. So if you need an antiinflammatory, try a different medication.

I actually only see six suggestions there, certainly no proven tinnitus cures as his hype suggests.

The sad thing is that this website is selling thousands of copies and each one of those people is left feeling totally ripped off.

And who can blame them.

I certainly felt ripped off and I was only doing some research!

 There are literally hundreds of his affiliates selling this book all over the internet.

If you do a Google search for tinnitus or tinnitus cure and you will most likely come across at least 3 or 4 of his affiliates all trumpeting how his secret 11 tinnitus cures will cure your tinnitus in 2 weeks, or less!

Judging by the number of affiliates he has selling it, and the ClickBank blurb where he entices affiliates to promote this rubbish he is definitely out to make a killing!

Next I went along to ClickBank to see what he offers his affiliates.  Below is the exact text in Clickbank where you can signup as one of his affiliates:

Cure For Tinnitus - Help People Stop The Ringing In Their Ears. Conversions A Great With This Niche Product. Get In Early And Make A Killing.

• I think that says it all for me, “GET IN QUICK AND MAKE A KILLING!”

What a scam, I’ll be asking for my money back.

There is more information about tinnitus and it’s causes on the front page of t-gone.com than in the whole of the 24 pages of this so-called book.

Below are some of his affiliate sites that sell his book which I found by doing a Google search for tinnitus.

It may scare most people when they hear a really troubling ear ringing and if they discover that these noises cannot be heard by people who are with them. It makes most people want to scream in anger or bang their heads out of frustration. This is why most of those who have tinnitus are expected to be subjected to a lot of stress, but it is one thing that they must avoid. Stress actually makes their tinnitus much louder, and this can only mean a much bigger problem for them. If you know all the things that you must avoid and do, then perhaps you would be living a more meaningful life even with a tinnitus.

There is actually a tried and tested secret to put a stop to tinnitus. It does not mean putting a stop to it that would mean you completely eliminate it, but putting a stop to tinnitus in a sense that the ear ringing becomes so mild that you barely notice it to be there. One thing that a person must do is not to give much attention to the tinnitus. The more you listen and pay attention to the noise, the louder it gets. It would help if you keep yourself busy to get your attention off the noise. Every time you become idle, you are only giving yourself time to listen to the noise more.

Aside from keeping yourself busy, you will need to eat nutritious foods. It is important that you stay healthy. Being healthy boosts your immune system and helps you cope better with your condition as compared to someone who has has a weak immune system. It also gives you lesser chances to be subjected to stress when you have a healthy body.

To help you sleep at night, white noise tinnitus masking CDs may be used. It has helped thousands of tinnitus patients around the world.

There are certain types of ringing in ears where the person having tinnitus may be lucky there is still a chance to really stop ringing in ears, but there are also some cases of ringing in ears wherein the noise in the ears has to be a part of them for the rest of their lives. It may sound loud or just moderately noisy.

For those types of ringing in ears that will just become a part of the life of those having tinnitus, the only alternative since there is no way to stop ringing in ears would be to help them in coping with the noise. Coping with the noise would mean being able to live normally day to day without noticing the ringing in ears.

There can be a nagging type of ringing in ears and there can be a mild type which comes very unnoticeable. The way to address a nagging type of ringing in ears is by providing them with something to minimize the noise that they hear. An example would be tinnitus masking therapy, which is especially indicated for those having sleep problems.

Maskers can stop ringing in ears temporarily when it is worn but will also immediately restore the ear ringing once it is removed. There are also some tinnitus patients who have successfully ignored their ear ringing. This means that they have been able to find a way not to pay attention to their ringing in ears. They still have a ringing in ears, but because they do not pay attention to it, it appears that they were able to stop ringing in ears.

Homeopathic tinnitus remedies are examples of ringing in ears treatment which can help those who have a ringing in the ears to cope with the noise and make it appear like it’s no longer there. Several tinnitus sufferers have already claimed they successfully overcame their ringing in ears with homeopathy.

One of the most important factors of ringing in ears is the fact that it creates trauma to the person suffering from it and it will affect their family too. The longer it goes on and the more severe the tinnitus, the worse the emotional side effects for the tinnitus sufferer. The mental strain that this condition can cause is exhausting to even the strongest person. It is known that when we are completely run down the levels of tinnitus symptoms seems to rise and get ringing gets louder. That is why it is important to discover what causes ringing ears.

To simply explain it, any dilemma that involves hearing problems is likely to exhibit a symptom of ringing in the ears. Any difficulty in hearing will lead to ringing in the ears because of the absence of sound waves being recognized by the brain. This instant exemption of sound waves can cause an erratic action on the part of the brain since it has gotten used to interpreting the sound it receives on a regular basis.

My top tips to stop ear ringing:
Find the root cause of your symptoms and treat the causes.

Without the regular sound waves that it has to interpret, the brain will try so hard and in the process it short circuits itself, which is then the abnormal sound or so called ringing in the ears that a person with tinnitus can hear. This explains why the ringing noise in the ears is something that can be heard only by the person having it because it is something that happens internally. There are no external factors which causes it hence a person having tinnitus must not expect that other people can hear the noise they are hearing.

When combined with the frustration and depression that comes with not being able to live how you want, tinnitus takes a huge emotional toll on even the strongest person.

Many are so haunted by the sounds of ringing ears that it affects every aspect of their daily lives leading them to seclusion, paranoia, insomnia, depression and for many, even suicidal thoughts or attempts.

The best thing to do is to go and have a check with a physician. But before things get out of your control, it is best to know what are the things that can cause an ear ringing so that proper preventive measures may be taken. Some probable causes of ear ringing are ear infections, perforated ear drum, loud noise, ear tumors, Meniere’s disease, presbycusis(age related hearing loss), ototoxic drugs, head and neck trauma or injury, excessive ear wax, hypertension and stress.

It is noticeable that one of the prominent cause of ear ringing is related to hearing loss. We now understand that hearing problems are one of the major causes of ear ringing. Hence we must take all safety precautions if we do not wish to have or live with an ear ringing in the future.

The food that we take in are also contributing factors to ear ringing. We must avoid food high in cholesterol, salt and caffeine since these are the food that can cause problems with the circulatory system and can also possibly lead to an ear ringing.

As much as a lot of people love to listen to music, it is sad to know that their passion for music can also possibly give them an ear ringing problem if they listen to music at very loud volumes. Millions of individuals around the world are now regretting that they used to listen to music at a very high volume because they now add up to the statistics of people suffering from an ear ringing.
