Ummmm….maybe not.

Like lots of cool people (William Shatner, for example) I suffer from tinnitus. This is a condition that causes one to have a constant ringing or buzzing in your ears. It can be caused by lots of things: genetics, listening to loud music or an overdose of awesomeness as in the case of Shatner. Regardless of the cause, the condition can be quite maddening. Plus there really aren’t many effective treatments for it.

So along come the folks at Quietus. They claim their supplement (or whatever it is) will rid you of your annoying ringing. Now I don’t know for a fact that Quietus is snake oil, but I seriously doubt that it works. But if people want to try it, more power to them. What I don’t like are their ads.

While my tinnitus can be annoying at times, it usually isn’t an issue. In fact, lots of times I don’t even notice it unless I think about it. Of course, it makes it harder to avoid thinking about it when you hear ads for tinnitus remedies on your drive into work in the morning. So I’ve been enjoying the ringing for most of the day thanks to Quietus. Good job guys.

If you ever decide to do a web search for the cooking site, A Dash of Sass, make sure you include the first “s” is “sass”. You’ll find a lot of sites if you leave it out, but they won’t be cooking sites.
