Summary

Subjective tinnitus is the perception of irregular sound at different frequencies. Although the underlying cause of tinnitus is unclear, increased body weight is known to increase tinnitus symptoms. This study aimed to determine the effects of dietary and physical activity interventions on tinnitus symptoms. Sixty-three obese subjects with tinnitus aged 20 to 65 years were divided into diet + physical 8 activity (P.A.), diet, P.A., and control groups. Dietary and anthropometric records, Tinnitus Handicap 9Inventory (THI), Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36), and Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) of all individuals were compared at the baseline and at the end of the study.
