Quietus

WTF ... finally something invented by a drummer and it is this.

The only think that ever helps me with tinnitus is a thorazine/lithium cocktail ... oh, wait, those are the voices not the ringing.

    So a rock drummer (who doesn't give us his last name) wants to sell us some herbs?

    Hmmm...

     In order, then, to discover the limit of deepest tones, it is necessary not only to produce very violent agitations in the air but to give these the form of simple pendular vibrations. - Hermann von Helmholtz, predicting the role of the electric bassist in 1877.

    wants to sell us some herbs?

    If it is truly homeopathic then there aren't actually any herbs left in the concoction.  At least they admit it on their site:  generally not even a molecule of the original substrate or medicine is present in the medicine.

    Anyone read the disclaimers: **These results not typical. Individual results will vary. These real testimonials do not represent the typical or ordinary experience of users. They are for demonstration purposes only and do not accurately capture the actual results you will experience. Your results may vary and you may need to use the product for a longer or shorter period of time. Each person’s experience with Quietus is different, which cannot be determined from these testimonials.

    That first one is always my favorite. Translation: This doesn't actually do what it claims to do.

    I also love the stock photo of the 'doctor' to go along with the stock photo of the 'customer service rep'. Maybe it's also just a stock photo of a drummer.

    And yet another disclaimer: *These studies do not represent a cure or success rate for tinnitus. These studies did not include the quietus formula specific for tinnitus.

    The fine print taketh away...

    Jonbouy, I'm surprised.  You know that Placebo didn't use a drummer.  Placebo Domingo was a famous Opera singer. 

    He suffers from Tinnitus Elbow.

    Honestly, am I the only one doing any Internet research here?

    If you experience silence lasting for more that four hours, see your doctor, as this may indicate a serious, potentially life threatening condition.
