Lipoflavonoid

 
Wikipedia: Lipoflavonoid
 

Lipoflavonoid is a proprietary, over-the-counter, nutrient formula created in 1961, by DSE Healthcare Solutions, to help combat tinnitus (sounds in the ears). Although it has not been approved by the Food and Drug Administration for this purpose, eriodictyol glycoside, which is an extract of citrus bioflavonoids, has been shown to improve microcirculation in the inner ear canal in at least one medical study,[1] which concluded that Lipoflavonoid provides a beneficial effect for patients suffering from tinnitus due to Meniere's disease. Many ear, nose and throat specialists recommend Lipo-Flavonoid for their patients who suffer from tinnitus.[2] The manufacturer does not claim that Lipoflavonoid provides beneficial effects for tinnitus due to other causes. Lipoflavonoid is a registered trademark.
