Vertigo can be a frustrating condition that requires dozens of tests and doctors’ appointments. However, a pair of research studies note the importance of reducing sodium intake to reduce one of the leading causes of vertigo, Meniere’s disease.
The first study, published in the Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, notes that limiting sodium-rich foods in the diet like canned and frozen foods is one of the most effective treatments yet discovered for this common vertigo cause. The second research review, published by a team of Spanish scientists, notes that aggressive treatment of Meniere’s disease –including sodium reduction—is effective in more than 8 out of ten cases.
Even more natural ways to relieve vertigo and chronic dizziness…

We have always shared with patients to limit exposure to sodium, caffiene and tobacco smoke to help the symptoms of vertigo. This advice has helped many patients. Great job getting the word out about the sodium aggravating vertigo.
