Banish Your Allergies with Xlear French & German researchers discovered xylitol in the 1800's. It is a safe simple sugar present in fruits ans vegetables, such as plums, corn, and strawberries. Xlear is made of xylitol/saline spray that helps the nose and immune system do what they naturally should do on their own. The name is a bit unusual but is Greek and Russian the "x" in those languages is pronounced like "c" in English. So the "x" stands for xylitol and Xlear is pronouced "clear".
How Does Xlear Work?
Certain Harmful Bacteria enter the body and attach themselves to membranes in the nose and throat. There they begin to culture and grow, causing infection and sickness. Xylitol is a natural enemy of bacteria, when the xylitol/saline solution is sprayed in the nose, it goes goes directly to the nasal passages and flushes out nasty germs such as Streptococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus influenza, & Moraxella catarrhalis-----three bacteria that live only in the nose and are responsible for practically all upper-respiratory infections.
For most allergies and mild asthma, the recommended dose is two sprays in each nostril three of four times a day. Think of the saying "when you spray your nose, look at your toes" as you spray. In other words, tilt your head down and on the first spray aim the bottle toward the back of your head. Keep your head tilted down and with the second spray, aim the bottle toward the top of your head. You can cut the dosage back after a few days. With severe asthma conditions, such as those that require a bronchodilator or Albuterol, follow the above procedure every one to two hours for the first three days, then cut back to two or three times a day.
Practically everyone who has used the spray reports fantastic results. It has eliminated asthma, cleared up chronic sinus infections and allergic reactions, prevented bronchitis, and even healed childhood middle-ear infections. The most severe asthma problems have begun to abate in the first day or so, and have been kept at bay with only a couple of sprays a day.
Xlear is Clear of Side Effects
A few people inititally experience a slight buring or stinging sensation. This is to be expected if the nasal passages are raw, since the salt in the saline solution can burn slightly. This should subside as the tissue begins to heal.
Those with long-standing asthma or allergy problems may experience a "cleansing episode." After a few days to a week of using the spray, some individuals either cough up or vomit large amounts of mucus. As far as I know, this happens once, and the cleansing seems to accelerate the benefits of the Xlear.
Xlear can be used safely by pregnant women and children of all ages. Taking more then eight or ten grams of xylitol a day has produced stomachaches and diarrhea in some children. Keep in mind, however, that when your're using the spray, you get very small amounts of xylitol. two sprays per nostril twice a day works out to only about 40 milligrams of xylitol per day.
No remedy---Natural or otherwise---cures evey single person. But if you suffer from asthma, chronic bronchitis, or hay fever Xlear can be a godsent. What's more, besides being safe and natural it is inexpensive.
