Vertigo (Head Reeling)

Vertigo is the feeling of spinning or falling through space when there is no motion. Sensations associated with vertigo include a sense of spinning, tumbling, falling forward or backward, or of the ground rolling beneath one’s feet. It may be difficult to focus visually; many people find it uncomfortable to keep their eyes open during vertigo spells. Sweating, nausea and vomiting are also common. Vertigo can last only a few minutes, or it can last days, depending on the cause.

Vertigo is not a disease but a symptom of a broad range of disorders, diseases and conditions, including :

•  Diseases or disorders of the inner ear (such as motion sickness; the formation of “sludge” in the inner ear, which causes the inner ear to send a confusing motion signal to the brain; or tumors in the inner ear)
•  Injuries or other damage to the inner ear (for example, from drugs such as aspirin and some diuretics, chemotherapy drugs and antibiotics)
•  Diseases or disorders of the brain (such as tumors, migraine, transient ischemic attack or stroke or a psychiatric disease or disorder)
•  Disorders affecting the acoustic nerve, which connects the inner ear to the brain
•  Ménière’s disease or Ménière’s syndrome
•  Viral and bacterial infections
•  Allergies
•  Multiple sclerosis

Damage to the nerves in the neck that helps the brain monitor the relative position of the neck and trunk (this form of vertigo, called cervical vertigo, often occurs after an injury such as a whiplash injury but may be associated with arthritis in the neck or degenerative cervical spine disease).

Low blood pressure : Under normal circumstances, the brain relies on three sensory systems to maintain spatial orientation: the vestibular system (the inner ear), the visual system (the eyes), and the somatosensory system (which conveys information from the skin, joint and muscle receptors). These three systems overlap, allowing brain to assemble an accurate sense of spatial orientation. A compromised system or conflicting signals can cause vertigo.

Role of Noni

As a symptom, presence of vertigo is always a reason to see a physician. At the same time, however, for conditions in which vertigo persists (such as Ménière’s disease), a number of nutrients might be considered to counteract the effects, including:

Antioxidants : Antioxidants mitigate the damaging effects of free radicals on tissues, cell membranes and DNA. Noni is a powerful and natural antioxidant. It contains all the antioxidant vitamins like vitamin C, vitamin E, Beta carotene, many trace minerals like zinc, selenium, glutathione, and besides that Noni contains 150 and above phytochemicals having having secrete effective antioxidant property. Noni also stimulates to secrete more anti oxidant enzymes like glutathione peroxidase, superoxide dismutase and catalase in our body. Noni contains 17 of total 20 amino acids. Glutathione is one of the important antioxidants and Noni raises the synthesis of glutathione. The free radical damaging effect also generates many diseases and symptoms and vertigo is one among them.
