Black soybean is good source of “Yin” nourishing foods for kidney. Black is for “water” and “Kidney” is lies in the element of "water" too.

This simple recipe which help in support and normalize the body, kidney energy and help to reduce of toxic heat, controls and enhances of “water metabolism” in preventing of water retention, this is what involves the proper diet and nourishment of the ears, for which is what affected by the kidney system in meridian cycle and functioning.

As weaken in kidney energy can causes poor hearing or other sickness conditions, e.g ringing in the ears (tinnitus), also frequently fear of cold like frigophobia. That’s the syndrome of hyperactivity of fire due to yin deficiency and phlegm stasis.

Symptoms and signs of Kidney Yin Deficiency to ear problems:  

Dizziness, feeling fullness and ringing in the ear, migraine or slowly hearing loss is the sign of tinnitus (ringing in the ear).

Tinnitus and meniere's disease (imbalance of ear fluid) is an influence hearing and balanced internal ear disease. Which is one kind of internal ear pathological change causes, and initiation endolymph (the fluid contained inside the membranous labyrinth of the inner ear), back-flow is blocked or the absorbing barrier. Some of the causes is unknown, some factors cause maybe due to family history, ear infection and head injury as this needs the modern science medical diagnosis in further treatments.

In meridian channel the kidney is the most important reservoir of essential energy and storing the “Jing” or essence. The Kidney is the root of "Fire" and "water".

Kidney Yang is to ensure the fire of each organ is not drowned out, it goes to the lungs and supervises the discharge of excess water by the bladder. They meridian channel for kidney functioning is referred as "open into the inner ear". 

The Kidney and ear in meridian channel and its physical branches is interconnected are emerge parallel function. It said “the kidney in meridian channel is "open into the ears”. As when channel collapse, influences of passage for water or fluid to flow through. But Not all ear problems or disorders are related to the kidney.

When the kidney system is imbalanced of "Yin and Yang" deficiency it manifest as soreness and weak. This will cause deficient Yin with liver fire, and causing heat symptoms like "ringing in the ear" or Tinnitus.

Manifestation and root cause of kidney in channel Qi, governing water metabolism, pathway of 'Qi'  flow is deficiency and kidney Qi failing to control respiring Qi. As our body Qi is constantly ascending, descending, entering and leaving, when Qi is gathers or disperses, the qi flow within the pathways occurs several times in a day in active period. It influences our body Qi energy functioning is form or collapse.

These imbalances of kidney system in functioning “Yin and Yang” deficiency may cause several signs and symptoms like night sweat, cold limbs, edema, water retention, weaken and pain of back and knee, insomnia, poor libido, fertility problem, poor appetite, constipation, chronic fatigue as well as ear problems e.g Meniere’s syndrome, vertigo and tinnitus.
