In this video, Dr. Matthew Posa, a chiropractor in Milton, Ontario will discuss the 5 Best suppleents scientifically proven to help reduce the symptoms associate with #vertigo and #dizziness for increased healing and #vertigorelief and #dizzinessrelief.
Supplements play a crucial role in supporting your body’s healing process, especially in conditions like vertigo. Vertigo is a type of dizziness that makes you feel like you or the environment around you is spinning or moving when there is no actual movement. It can be caused by various factors, including inner ear problems, such as benign paroxysmal positional vertigo ( #BPPV ), #vestibular neuritis, #menieresdisease , or other conditions like migraines, head injuries, or reduced blood flow to the base of the brain.
Supplements can help alleviate vertigo symptoms and support overall health. The top 5 supplements for vertigo include:
Ginkgo Biloba: Known for its potential to improve blood flow, ginkgo biloba may help reduce vertigo symptoms by enhancing circulation in the inner ear.
Magnesium Bisglycinate: Magnesium plays a vital role in nerve function and muscle relaxation, which can be beneficial for reducing vertigo symptoms.
Vitamin B12: Deficiency in vitamin B12 has been linked to dizziness and vertigo. Supplementing with B12 can help maintain nerve health and function.
Vitamin D3: Vitamin D deficiency has been associated with an increased risk of vertigo. Vitamin D supplementation may help improve symptoms.
Vitamin K2: Vitamin K2 is important for bone and heart health, which can indirectly impact vertigo symptoms by supporting overall health and wellbeing.
Chiropractors use Vitamins and Supplements in order to further healing and repair so your body works as effeciently as possible. In many cases, symptoms of vertigo and dizziness are often associated with misalignments in the upper #cervicalspine that can cause interference to the nervous system and the nerves that exit the skull. In particular the cranial nerves associated with #innerear and the #vestibular system.

I’m going to show you the top five supplements that you should be taking if you have vertigo dizziness BPPV, Meniere’s disease or even Vestibular Neuritis. I’m also going to tell you exactly how to take it, the types to look out for but also the dosage levels that you
Need in order to see the results at home. I’m Dr Matthew Posa and I’m a Chiropractor in Milton Ontario Canada. I help people get over their spine related health issues so they can heal from the inside out and live the life that they were designed to live. if you want more content
Like this please subscribe to my page and don’t forget to share this information with the people we know that need it the most. I’m going to go in order from the least to my absolute favorite. the first supplement that we’re starting with is Ginkgo Biloba. this one is excellent if you
Have dizziness and or vertigo a associated with tennitis which is that loud pitch ringing in the ears or if you know that you have a vestibular issue there is a little bit of caution with this
One because it is also a blood thinner it can thin your blood so the first thing that I would do is make sure that you have this conversation with your family doctor especially if you’re on any type of blood thinning medications or anything to do with your heart. if it is extracted from
A leaf and that is the compound that you’re looking for so if you go to a natural health food store you’re looking for your supplements online I would just make sure that it is derived
Directly from a leaf. so therefore this one would be vegan friendly and you want to take 120 to 240 mg per day now if you’re no stranger to my page you’ve heard me mention this one next this is Magnesium bisglycinate or (glycinate) this one is excellent because not only does it easily absorb
Into your body it really helps your joints your muscles your gut and even your brain so this is why it’s recommended but it is one of the types of magnesium that does not usually cause diarrhea or constipation or some stomach issues so this is why this one is the easiest for most people
To take and it’s the one that we know easily absorbs into the body so that way were getting the effect that we’re looking for this one is in particularly good for people who have again vertigo or dizziness but then you’re also seeing signs of headaches because research has showed
That when people take Magnesium Bisglycinate and they have headaches migraines and or the vertigo symptoms especially when they’re together then this has been excellent at being able to reduce those symptoms when you want to take 400 to 800 mg per per day and I would split that up morning
I would take about half and then at night and especially with food so therefore you reduce even less any of the problems with your stomach and or your gut in the number three spot is vitamin B12
Now this one is very important because when you think be you always think brain but this one in particular really acts on the nerve cells and when we’re talking about things with the inner ear inner balance the nerve that literally go from the inside of your of your head but also
Your your brain and your spinal cord that exit at the top of your neck well these nerves can be heavily affected by imbalances or Falls or even trauma to the area so when we look at the
Nerves itself and we want the body to heal that then what we want to do is make sure you have enough vitamin B12 vitamin B12 is usually found in meats and eggs and poultry and then you have
Fish or even things like organ Meats so if you’re a vegetarian or a vegan then this usually you’d have to supplement this for sure but also there’s a lot of people who aren’t taking this enough and so this is where supplementation becomes extremely important and in some cases that you’ll actually
Have to get an injection on average you want to take about 2.4 micrograms to 2.8 micrograms that is generally the amount that you should be taking per day especially if you’re going to be supplementing but the most important part about taking vitamin B12 is the type of vitamin B12
Because there’s different types of vitamin B12 in most products that you find out there you’re going to find something if you look at the back of the label you’re going to see something that says cyanocobalamin. now cyanocobalamin is the synthetic form of this. It’s man made and the
Way that they make this one is they use Cyanide and they and they’re able to derive the vitamin B12 using that so it is not the form that I would recommend it is safe for consumption and hence
That’s why they do it but it is the synthetic form and therefore it does have a reaction and in this case it’s usually inflammation which is what we’re trying to get away from so when you’re looking for
A Cobalamin which is Vitamin B12 what you’re really looking for is two other types and the reason why we’re looking at these is because it’s what we call bioavailable bioavailable meaning your body can absorb it and use it versus it having a chance of reaction so the
First and my favorite type is something called methylcobalamin and that’s something you would look at the back of the bottle and you’d be able to find that quite easily it will be listed and the other one is adenosylcobalamin. now this one is really interesting because it is also better
Absorbable just like the methylcobalamin however this one acts differently and what it does is it goes into the mitochondria of your cell so going back to some old school biology if you look at the cell the cell every cell inside your body has a nuclear generator it has its energy source and
The energy source is really made from something called your mitochondria and the mitochondria make ATP so when your brain is trying to heal if you’re trying to get your cells inside your body to heal the more ATB production your body can do the better the mitochondria inside your cells can
Work then you’re going to see better results and so what’s really interesting with that form of it is we’re actually able to increase or change the mitochondria and therefore we’re going to see an effect that way so that is a form that you can look for sometimes you
Can find methylcobalamin and Adenosylcobalamin together and that would be really cool that’s something you can definitely take but if you take either or that’s okay too just stay away from the other form which is the cyanocobalamin based on Research this is the thing that is usually
Missing from people and what they found when they do these large scale research studies is they’re able to look at people who suffer from Vertigo, Meniere’s disease, vestibular neuritis or even things like BPPV and what they found is the body is actually reacting because you have
Low levels of this one vitamin So What vitamin are we talking about it’s vitamin D3 vitamin D3 is not only an essential vitamin it is the only vitamin that your body actually makes shows you how important it is but what’s really interesting with vitamin D3 is that a lot of people take this
In a pill or a capsular form versus my favorite form which is taking it as a liquid now why we like it as a liquid is because it becomes easier to absorb but also distributes better within the
Body if you take a pill form of it I’m not saying that’s horrible don’t necessarily throw that one out but if we’re really looking at how your body uses these molecules then when you use the liquid what you’re doing is you’re allowing for this fat soluble vitamin to be absorbed abbed better
Into the body and therefore used so we want to be able to increase your chances of using this this is something that I would stress or at least recommend that you definitely talk to your
Medical doctor and go get a blood test now if you can get a blood test and measure your vitamin D levels Therefore your supplementation will be even better because then you’ll know where you sit on the normal range and how much vitamin D3 that you really need to supplement with with in
Some cases some people are too high but generally based on the research most people who have had vertigo dizziness Min disease bppv all these type of associated issues with vertigo and dizziness usually were low so how much should you be taking so when you are supplementing with this you want
To take about 4,000 IUS all the way up to 6,000 IUS if you live in a colder climate like I do I’m in Canada so in Canada right now we’re not getting a lot of sun so I’m taking 6,000 iuse per day my
Kids who are very young right now they are also supplementing with vitamin D3 but they’re nowhere near those levels they’re around a th000 I use because we’re also going by the fact that they’re
Kids in the summertime I usually go down to 4 to 5,000 I use per day mostly because I do love being out in the sun and therefore I know that my body is converting that sunlight and using that in
Order to make the vitamin D and the last vitamin that I’m going to go through is not necessarily the most important but it’s associated with D3 and therefore you should be taking it together and a lot of times you’re going to see it in packaging where they’re literally together in
The one you’ll see vitamin D3 and K2 so vitamin K2 a lot of times people think of vitamin K as clotting Factor it really helps with your body and your blood however what’s really interesting with vitam vitamin K2 especially in the presence of vitamin D is that it allows for better absorption
In the cases of people who have maners disease or bppv so benign proxys positional vertigo then what we want to do is reabsorb the crystals that are forming inside the ear and so in the presence of vitamin K2 your body can actually reabsorb calcium back into the bones where they belong
So when you are looking for a vitamin D I would look for a vitamin D that has K2 in it and this one based on Research is best used as a ratio so I’ll explain the ratio the ratio is 1,000
IUS of vitamin D3 to 10 micrograms of vitamin K2 so in my case when I take in the summer especially 5,000 IUS of vitamin D I’m looking for 100 25 micrograms of vitamin K2 and if you’re not
Sure what else you can do if you have vertigo or dizziness and what foods you need to avoid please watch this video right here because in that video I’m going to show you exactly the types of
Food that you need to avoid in order to be put on the right path so you can get through this
