To reap these benefits, you must use the proper water. Making the all too common mistakes of using tap water and not properly cleansing the irrigation devices can lead to brain infections and death. Though tap water in most communities is filtered and purified to kill harmful germs and remove toxic impurities, some treacherous microorganisms like brain-eating amoebae and or molds, fungi, can slip through. Stomach acid kills these bugs, but the nasal linings have no such protective device. Worse still, when you spray tap water into your nose, openings in the roof of the nasal cavity provide ready access for these germs into your brain resulting in a life-threatening infection called encephalitis. The companies that market irrigators whether the simple Neti Pot or the more sophisticated motorized irrigators such as the Navage and the NasalFresh MD are careful to instruct their buyers, namely you, to only use distilled or boiled water to which you must add a package of salts in order to create, in essence, a sterile saline solution with proper acidity and salt levels. Problem is that some don’t read or follow instructions. The CDC, FDA, and I recommend regular nasal irrigations. The easiest and safest way to do this is to use sterile aerosol saline. This type of product was pioneered by Arm and Hammer’s Simply Saline but is now available from numerous companies as NeilMed’s Nasal Wash, Sinex Ultrafine Nasal Mist, and SinuCleanse Sterile Saline Nasal Spray. While you can purchase sterile saline in pre-filled squeeze bottles, I caution against doing so and favor sealed aerosol canisters. With the squeeze bottles, releasing the squeeze can suck nasal snot, definitely not sterile, into the bottle where bacteria and other germs are free to grow at room temperatures. When you next spray the saline, these nasty organisms can easily find their way into your brain. https://www.fda.gov/consumers/consumer-updates/rinsing-your-s".

In a mouse model, they show that a nasal spray containing an anti-CD3 monoclonal antibody significantly reduces brain inflammation and speeds recovery after a traumatic brain injury (TBI). This antibody, sprayed into the nasal cavities, activates regulatory T cells, Tregs, that then travel to the brain and release IL-10 that in turn reduces microglial-medial inflammation there. This anti-CD3 nasal spray must still prove its effectiveness in humans. If so, it will become a treatment for the TBI that follows concussions, motor vehicle accidents, and other sports-related head trauma. https://www.nature.com/articles/s41593-025-01877-7 #traumaticbraininjury #tbi #sports #cd3 #treg #il10 #mva #nasalspray".
Researchers found that oxytocin, delivered via nasal spray, increases feelings of guilt and shame and makes people less likely to harm others, even if it benefits others, highlighting its potential to enhance moral sensitivity and empathy.
Finally:
"For the first time, researchers at Tel Aviv University and the University of Lisbon say they have developed an effective, inexpensive and simple COVID-19 vaccine that can be stored at room temperature and administered as a nasal spray."
