Xylitol Nasal Spray Prevents SARS-CoV-2 Infection; Balmforth et al. studied a xylitol-based nasal spray known to have anti-infective & anti-inflammatory properties and is used in XLEAR nasal sprays
They found significant benefit in this xylitol-based nasal spray in preventing COVID infection; Dr. McCullough has written about this in the past in his substack
Ha! I just used Xyclear nasal spray about 5 minutes before you posted this!
I get chronic sinus infections because I have too much bone mass. Sinus rinses get stuck up there( so no saline washes),but a fine mist with xylitol helps me a great deal!
HOMEMADE XYLITOL ORAL / NASAL SPRAY - and a practical way to use it
I bought birch xylitol on amazon, (Health Garden brand, 15 oz package). Xclear uses corn based xylitol to my understanding. Any practical difference? I do not know. I had previously bought a 10 pack of "Snout" brand 30 ml spray bottles on amazon, on the recommendation of a friend, when I decided to use a finer spray than the walmart squeeze bottle saline nasal spray made for my homemade .5% povidone-iodine 10% in homemade "neilmed" formula "normal" saline back in 2020.
I mix xylitol spray with PLAIN, boiled, bottled filtered water, NOT SALINE. Some research on Xylitol against cov2 showed higher antiviral action when it was diluted with a much lower concentration of saline. Steve Kirsch in a published interview with the head man now at Xclear made a point that xylitol spray for use against covid was most effective in plain water and the head at Xclear agreed.
The consensus of information I have garnered from research papers using Xclear and said SK interview is that Xclear is ~12% xylitol (by weight?) in "normal" saline with .2% grapefruit seed extract. note; the xclear websight was not forth coming as to their formula concentrations nor did I see any breakdown on pictures on the bottle.
I put a level (to just "scant" of level) tsp of xylitol in a 30 ml "snoot" brand oral/nasal spray bottle then pour in boiled and cooled plain filtered bottled water, let "it" dissolve for a bit and put the spray top back on the bottle and lit it sit with a few little shakes for a time before I spray. My tsp of xylitol weighs just below 3.9 grams. 30 ml of water weighs 30 grams so 12% would be ~ 3.6 grams there is possibly a bit more volume in the spray bottle, I should measure using a graduated syringe. I have thought about adding .1% povidone-iodine solution 10% or .3ml measured with a syringe for an anti viral preservative but have not yet done so (or source genuine grapefruit seed extract?), I use it and mix some more and use 70% isopropyl alcohol to clean out the bottle and a bit of bleach on a tissue to wipe the outside of the spray tip and inside of the spray tip cover.
The literature references "washing" the nasal passages with spray. I inhale a bunch of sprays into both nose and mouth until I need to blow my nose. Then just a few .5% povidone-iodine sprays likewise inhaled. These sprays ( iodine has been tested to loose effectiveness) probably have lost effectiveness by 4 hours. Some may use one or both sprays every 2 hours or so in a "high risk" shared air environment.
I heard that Xylitol is also good for teeth and gums. I was initially concerned that it is an ingredient in my melatonin gummies, but a little is okay and even beneficial. So this makes sense to me!
You can buy xylitol in granular form as a sweetener ( it comes from birch trees, I think). It dissolves in hot water. The downside is mostly if you eat it or swallow too much as it can upset the stomach, but for a rinse it is great
I just got Covid three weeks ago. I used the xylitol nasal spray every single day that I went to work. Evidently it didn’t work. But on the upside, I wasn’t sick for three years until three weeks ago.
Been using XLEAR for years and years. We get cases at a time.
Where do you get yours from?
I read about Xclear months ago on Steve Kirsch's 'Stack. Immediately went to Amazon and got a package of four. The "stuff" is amazing!
This is an xclear and present danger to Big Pharma profits

Yep, used it for the last six months with zero household flu. Cheap and works great! Xylitol gum great for teeth too! See my stack post

I’ve been using for years.
Love it!!!
Xclear. Great spray, works and easy to use. Had to oder online to get it.
I love this product. I use it every night, and during the daytime as necessary.
When all said and done this may prove so much better than any IM for this virus 🦠
Betting it doesn't kill and destroy too many
There’s two. One is regular and one is max with capsicum. Amazing for sinuses. Havent had a Tylenol sinus in months
Thank you just ordered some

I've seen it written about on several dentist's blogs in the past year. They are validating its use for oral health. I think they got the memo!

Why would they want targeted, safe and here’s the big one, DISCRETIONARY, solutions? Then how would you vote with your face?!?!?!

Thank Goodness. I started using XLEAR about a year ago. once in the morning, once in the evening. Someone on YT recommended it.

Yay! I just bought some last week.
