What is the best "cure" for Meniere's Disease?

Dietary and lifestyle.

The purpose of dietary and lifestyle modification therapies is to reduce all symptoms by reducing conditions that may initiate or exacerbate ("trigger") symptoms.

Allergies, including food allergies.
Allergies, including food allergies, are believed by many to have a role in triggering Meniere's Disease symptoms in *some* patients. Treatment of allergies may or may not help reduce Meniere's symptoms or frequency of occurrences, depending upon the patient.

Menstruation.
Some women patients experience Meniere's symptoms in conjunction with menstruation.

Post hoc, ergo propter hoc (after this, therefore because of this). Datanation.com. If a patient improves after treatment "x" (say, grapefruit juice), a patient may think that the grapefruit juice improved the patient's Meniere's Disease. However, the mere fact that improvement followed a treatment is not evidence that the improvement was *caused* by the treatment. (Correlation is not causation.)

Ginkgo biloba.
Some patients believe that "ginkgo" acts as a vasodilator that improves blood flow to the head, improving their symptoms. Other patients report no effect at all. Moreover, ginkgo has its detractors, who believe that it is a dangerous anti-coagulant, especially when teamed up with certain other drugs, such as aspirin. The moral: do your homework; study up before taking any substance, and be sure to discuss with your physician.
