Dietary restriction for the treatment of Meniere’s disease
Meniere's disease (MD) is an idiopathic inner ear disorder characterized by spontaneous recurrent vertigo, fluctuating sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL), aural fullness and tinnitus. Endolymphatic hydrops (EH) of the inner ear is currently considered the pathophysiological mechanisms that underlies typical symptoms of MD. There are many therapeutic options for MD. First-line treatment commonly includes dietary modification, as low salt diet and reduction of alcohol and caffeine daily intake.
