Some have added Iodine to that mix to keep the sinuses clear as well. Works GREAT!

He hadn't been able to smell anything for at least 5 years, he was on 2 different prescription sinus medications daily, plus, when allergy season would happen he'd still get a sinus infection and have to go to the doctor to get shots for it. He was visiting and sounded so stuffy i told him about the neti pot. He went right downtown and bought one. Over a period of a few months he was able to get rid of one of his medications and make it through that allergy season without getting an infection. Over the next 6 month period he was able to stop the other medication and he got his sense of smell back. He's been on a neti pot for 2 years now and has not gotten one sinus infection, he can smell everything, no longer sounds stuffy all the time, and just is so happy about his non-existing sinus problem. He uses sea salt and baking soda in the neti. His neti holds a cup, so he makes 2 cups of warm water, a half teaspoon of sea salt and a half teaspoon of baking soda, stirs together and then fills the pot and does one nostril with the whole cup, then fills the pot and does the other nostril with the second cup. He uses it daily, first thing in the morning. In allergy season he uses it twice a day. He takes his pot with him when he travels. Once he came here for a weekend visit and had forgotten to bring his neti with him, so he went right downtown and bought another one. He will never be without one again. Samala, Renee
