Thank you! My children had asthma, so I was introduced to nasal washes a while back. I was horrified but became a true believer (after years of NEO-SYNEPHRINE, Coricidin-D, and later steroid nasal sprays). I use XLEAR now because it contains xylitol. I use the XLEAR nasal spray with grapefruit seed extract when I've been in crowded areas. Last night, I added two drops of 2% Lugols Iodine to my nasal wash (you can find it on Amazon) because I'd had a searing sinus headache for a few days. Worked like a charm over night.
I admit that it is a little scary to try "alternative" medicines (that used to be mainstream until Mr. Rockefeller took over American medicine). It will be a learning time for many of us.
But, as I used to tell my children's asthma doctor, "the human body was designed to work".
I’ve been using nasal washes and oral rinses now for going on two years. I use a saline/xylitol wash called Xlear and then add iodine to the solution. It’s a spray so I can carry it with me and use as I feel needed. This information has been out there for a long time and was mostly ignored.
On all manner of prevention sprays, N 95 masking, and eye protection, nasal flush, mouth wash, eyewash.
I use homemade 12% zylitol spray in plain water and homemade .5% povidone in normal saline spray in "snoot" brand nasal spray bottles prior to 3M N95 masking. I wear glasses with side shields (chinese research shows even just glasses are protective) Keep it out. Then the NeilMed 8 ounce bottle with homemade standard saline with 1% Johnson's baby shampoo for nasal flush, mouthwash and eye wash - now trying double strength saline or standard saline with an additional equivalent of baking soda with 1% Johnson's to flush it out and if and when it gets in kill it, stop viral attachment (alkalize out of the viral attachment 6.6 to 6.8 range), interfere with viral replication in the cell ( use a saline concentration in the 1.5% to 1.7% range). Then nebulize any escapees with a few ml of vodka.
We should have better "how to" to actually know what works best, I am grateful for the research done.
When I first came back from the store in "covid land", and followed the research I had found on gargling and nasal flushing and eye washing with 1% Johnson's baby shampoo in saline followed by sprays of .5% povidone-iodine 10% in saline, I had the feeling that, for the first time, I was doing something that just might well give me some bit of control over this virus. I think it was the fact that I was actually able to kill the damn stuff that felt so good.
In the high risk catagory. So far no covid and no vax mostly attributable to avoidance of "shared air"
