Could cutting calories quiet the ringing? diet trial targets tinnitus in behcet disease
NCT ID NCT07702149
First seen Jul 14, 2026 · Last updated Jul 15, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study investigates whether a 12-week low-calorie diet can reduce tinnitus (ringing in the ears) in people who have both Behcet disease and obesity. Twenty participants will follow the diet, and researchers will measure changes in tinnitus severity, discomfort, and quality of life using standard questionnaires. The goal is to see if weight loss through diet restriction can ease this common ear-related symptom.

- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could point toward a simple dietary approach to ease tinnitus in people with Behcet disease.
- What could go wrong
- This is a very small, early study with only 40 participants, so results may not apply widely. Diet changes can be hard to maintain, and tinnitus may not improve.
