I must admit, this happened to me as well.

Turns out, I cannot eat as much ice cream, soy ice cream, coconut ice cream, and cold beverages as I want, and do just fine.

Started out with a little earache, then a little crinkle, then BOOM–I lost half my hearing in my right ear, and it feels like there is a wetness in there. Some pressure, and ringing, pain only when I push on it. But almost impossible to have a conversation!

What to do? Plenty of things, but most importantly, don’t rush to the doctor. Try it at home for a week:

1. Eliminate all cold foods, they weaken the kidneys (related to the ears). This includes ice cream, iced beverages, and super cold foods. If you want to cool down, jump into water, or use compresses, or AC instead.

2. Eliminate fruit juice, soda, alcohol, sugary snacks, and non-organic raw foods such as lettuce, strawberries, tomatos, peppers, bananas and mangos. Also reduce hard foods such as crackers, barbecued foods and hard-boiled or fried or baked eggs.

3. Boil some brown rice one day, and buckwheat the next. Eat for 1-2 meals, and eat Soba noodles as well. Avoid semolina (regular pasta) and other white flours. Also eat plenty of beans, especially azuki, garbanzo, black soy, and mung. Miso soup and sea vegetables and shiitakes are also good.

4. Use grapefruit oil drops, or sesame oil, or a natural ear wax softener, and an ear syringe to remove wax buildup. Give this a few days, and be gentle.

5. Get plenty of sleep, and sing fun songs every day. Do not listen to heavy rock or other loud music, and avoid loud noises.

Other ideas such as ginger compresses and kidney drink are very beneficial. Call me at 508-333-4153 for assistance.

Good luck!!

Today I woke up and knew I had to eat light.

I had trouble getting out of bed–three days in a row eating potato latkes might have contributed.

So here’s my plan…

1) Get plenty of fresh air and exercise
2) Eat lightly, and chew very well–brown rice, cooked veggies and soup only
3) Stay away from things I like and have been eating lately, such as bread, crackers, nuts Don’t eat standing up, or between meals
4) Have some hot carrot juice to stay relaxed about 3pm
5) Meditate on how lucky I am to have so many great people in my life

Tomorrow, I’ll probably go back to eating more, if I’m up to it. My body knows what to do.
