Nasal rinse salt with xylitol has been developed together with ENT doctors, especially for people with (chronic) sinusitis. The combination of rinse salt and xylitol ensures optimal cleaning and the breakdown of the biofilm of bacteria. As a result:
In other words: thanks to xylitol, the chance of survival of bacteria is smaller, and you will suffer from an infection for less time. The chance of a new infection becomes smaller.
DOS Medical has also added a touch of mint for an extra fresh feeling.
With the NasoFree nasal douche you can easily introduce the saline rinse solution into the nasal passages.
Nasal rinse salt with xylitol can also be used by children.
Xylitol is a so-called 'sugar alcohol'. It is found in many products that are 'sugar-free'. That's why you find it in chewing gum and candy, for example. In addition, xylitol helps in the breakdown of bacteria. And it can therefore be added to nasal rinse salt.
The added value of xylitol has been known in dentistry for some time. That is why, for example, chewing gum with xylitol has been developed: bacterial plaque on the teeth (dental plaque) is destroyed by chewing chewing gum with xylitol.
Xylitol is also produced by yourself in small quantities.
ENT specialist Prof. Dr. W. Fokkens of the Amsterdam UMC has the following about xylitol:
'...Rinsing with Xylitol, the antibacterial agent that can also be found in many sugar-free chewing gum, helps better than rinsing with salt water for chronic rhinosinusitis. Because this rinse has a nice minty scent, it also gives a fresher feeling than rinsing with salt water...' Prof. Dr. W. Fokkens, ENT specialist, Amsterdam UMC
Bernard's story
'...I would like to let you know that your flushing system with xylitol works fantastically. I have always had a latent headache and it is now gone. At the beginning of the year I had several sinus infections.
I personally suspect that several cavities were inflamed given the pain and the pain relief I needed to suppress it. After taking two courses of antibiotics and other medications, the pain decreased, but it still looked inflamed.
Then started with your rinse twice a day and cortico nasal spray. Every day I improved and within a week the amount of substance accumulated during rinsing decreased. I now rinse 3 times a week as a preventative measure. I also passed this on to my doctor and he was also enthusiastic about it.
Rinsing well and breaking down the bio film with the xylitol really works. Almost a common household remedy. I hope you can convince the rest of the GPs too. Anyone with sinus problems should know about this solution...'
