gingko bilboa is a good remedy for tinnitus...did hearing damage from attending too many really loud concerts...and it's virtually gone since I've started taking it. Check with your doc though, if you are on blood thinning meds or heart meds it can have an adverse affect. It's really good for your memory too. Happy gardening...
