Data show a simple nasal spray can neutralize the SARS-CoV-2 virus and help alleviate symptoms of COVID disease, but the feds block any mention of these benefits.
The FDA and the FTC have sent warning letters to at least five companies marketing a wide range of antiseptic nasal sprays containing xylitol, saline, povidone-iodine, or some combination of these ingredients. The companies cited studies demonstrating their nasal sprays were able to neutralize and kill the coronavirus. We also have learned that the nose is the dominant site where the virus replicates and infects other areas of the body. Rather than widely disseminating this important public health information, the FTC and the FDA are ruthlessly banning this information and taking these companies to court to silence them. The CDC, whose mission is to increase the “health security” of our nation, has flatly refused to advise Americans to use nasal rinses despite the mountain of evidence showing they work. This highlights everything wrong with our healthcare system.
What kinds of claims were these companies making that required the government to clamp down? Xlear, which makes a nasal spray with xylitol, saline, and grapefruit seed extract, was censored by the FTC for simply discussing the results of more than a dozen studies demonstrating the plausibility of using its nasal spray to help with COVID. These studies show that Xlear destroyed 99.9 percent of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, that xylitol blocks the adhesion of bacteria and viruses, including SARS-CoV-2, to human tissue, and that the use of nasal sprays for COVID decreases viral activity in the nasal pathway, prevents transmission, expedites recovery, decreases disease severity, and reduces hospitalization and mortality.
Might this be useful information for the government to share with us during a global pandemic, with viral variants continually popping up and throwing vaccine effectiveness into question? Undoubtedly, but the FTC has attempted to ban the company from sharing this information. In fact, the FTC has sued Xlear for refusing to take down the “unsupported” health claims from its website that it’s nasal sprays can prevent or treat COVID, showing just how far the government will go to throttle natural options to stay healthy and protect drug and vaccine industry profits.
Not only has the federal government prevented these companies from disseminating this scientifically supported information; they have refused requests to alert the public themselves. Primary care physicians and pulmonologists have petitioned the CDC to issue guidance on the use of nasal sprays to blunt the virus’s impact. The CDC didn’t budge.
What is galling about the government’s actions here is that, for many months at the beginning of the pandemic, there were no other options. Given that substances like xylitol, povidone iodine, and saline are remarkably safe, why not share this information? When the available evidence suggests that these products can help, they are safe, and there aren’t other solutions, it is lunacy not to share this information.
The FTC is also censoring health information about povidone iodine, another ingredient in nasal sprays and mouthwashes. A randomized clinical trial found that a povidone iodine mouthwash, gargle, and nasal spray significantly reduced the viral load in patients with mild to moderate COVID-19. Other evidence shows that an iodine mouth-rinse for 30 seconds can prevent the virus from attaching to oral and nasal tissues. For these reasons, iodine has been used as a prophylactic measure across the globe to reduce disease transmission. Oral rinses have also been found to reduce infections after heart surgery. The Frontline COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance recommends a twice daily antiseptic mouthwash that includes povidone iodine, cetylpyridinium chloride, and essential oils. An iodine-containing nasal spray is also a plausible prophylactic based on the above evidence.
This is all part of a widespread censorship campaign against supposedly fraudulent products making COVID-19 health claims. The FTC and FDA assert that these companies violated federal law simply by describing the studies showing how nasal irrigation can help with COVID, and only drugs that are FDA-approved can claim to prevent, treat, or mitigate a disease.
As we’ve explained before, FDA-approval requires randomized controlled trials (RCTs), which are incredibly expensive. Drug companies can afford them because their drugs are patentable, and the research costs can be recouped once the drug gets approved. Natural products are generally not strongly patentable, so the companies cannot afford the astronomical sums required for RCTs.
The point isn’t that nasal sprays are a magic COVID bullet. The point is that, during a pandemic, the government should embrace an “all of the above” approach to a novel public health problem, informing the public about safe therapies that can plausibly be expected to help. It is lunacy to expect us to wait for clinical trials before a medicine is recommended for COVID. The truth seems to be that, if it isn’t a vaccine, the government doesn’t want to hear about anything that can help with COVID.
Action Alert! Write to the FTC, CDC, and FDA, urging them to alert the public about the benefits of nasal irrigation for staying healthy during the pandemic. Please send your message immediately.
This type of tyranny with respect to vital health information suppression does not surprise me. It is important for consumers to understand, that governmental agencies such as FDA, CDC and FTC are unduly influenced and indirectly bought and paid for by Big Pharm’s lobbying war-chest $$$, and the promise of future high salaried positions. We the people cannot allow this to continue by standing idle with the hope that this type of activity will someday magically change. Big Pharm monopoly must be STOPPED. Act now: Action Alert! Write to the FTC, CDC, and FDA, urging them to alert the public about the benefits of nasal irrigation for staying healthy during the pandemic. Please send your message immediately. Thank you.
THANK YOU FOR bringing this to our attention! Purchased immediately a three pack of XLEAR !
I believe the nasal spray will help to reduce infections and should be approved for use.
The objective here is not to help us but exterminate most of the world population, because it is ultimately the only way to control the climate.
You must realize that the CDC, FDA, FTC don’t care to have a cure or alleviate the symptoms. They want everyone to get the kill shot. Their aim is depopulation and the “vaccine” is doing its job. So many people are suffering and so many are dying due to complications caused by the shot. I applaud your work in bringing this to the public’s attention. Just like hydroxy and ivermectin work so well with Vitamins C and D and Zn, they will slander and call your work misinformation.
The nasal spray makes sense, in that the virus first enters the nasal cavity. the spray prevents the virus from spreading to other areas of the body. But of course “Big Farma” is all about greed and could care less about making prevention less expensive and easy access to the public!
well I will tell everyone I know about an Natural prevention available at the drug store. I hate loading up my body with all these unknown drugs
All possible sources for Covid & Sars relief, cure or control should be encouraged and Not blocked.
Why is this spray being blocked?
So very sad these days. They take away what really works and leave us with dangerous alternative that have been shown to kill.
No censorship from CDC, FCC or FDA!
If the FDA denies this, they are guilty — as they are already are on many counts during the present plandemic — of deliberate denial of remedy, showing collusion in criminal conspiracy, racketeering, genocide and treason.
Politicians need to stay out of medical treatments that don’t fit their agenda.
Gee, sounds like communism to me
To ban vital information from reaching the public is the death of common sense. One must examine one’s motives.
Exactly WHO benefits here?
This is immoral behavior and should be stopped immediately
This anti-health agenda is taking absurd measures now! For gods sake allow people to heal themselves as they are able. The so called vaccines sure don’t do a thing for anyone! Just how corrupt can a democracy be allowed to get?! This banning or willful suppression of helpful information to people, and certainly not harmful, contrary to the vaccines, is absolutely appalling. I can’t even find words. More of us are waking up, you know, and there will be a serious payday for all criminals involved in this money making conspiracy, and covering up the letting loose of a bio weapon on humanity to get there. Holy cow. We are all battle fatigued to have to fight for our right to make the lawful decisions about our own bodies, and what goes into them, but we are not giving up either. “The hill to die on” and all that..
This is interesting as the study is set to begin on December 8, 2021. https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT04610801 – Evaluation of the Efficacy of Xylitol Nasal Spray Against SARS-CoV-2….there are 200 participants and this is going to be a very interesting study to watch.
Saving lives should matter more than making profits for pharmaceutical companies and those invested in them. God help those with no moral compass. The day of reckoning is coming and money won’t buy you out of it.
This is just ridiculous! It is so apparent that they are trying to kill people intentionally without entertaining any sort of treatments that can help stop the spread.
Thank you for standing up against big Pharma, the CDC, the FDA, and the FTC. I am so sick and tired of them manipulating the public with lies about their vaccines and not telling anyone how important it is to keep your immune system healthy. In addition to what you point out that they’re suppressing information which in my eyes is criminal. So many people should be in jail for the lies that they tell and disseminating information that is misleading.
Iam sick of vaccines and government is not willing to listen to other reputable scientist
Our government should embrace an “all of the above” approach to a novel public health problem, informing the public about safe therapies that can plausibly be expected to help. The truth seems to be that, if it isn’t a vaccine, the government doesn’t want to hear about anything that can help with COVID.
It’s time our national health organizations start living up to the Hippocratic Oath, and serve the best interests of our citizens rather than lining their pockets from the pharmaceutical companies!
The public needs to be informed about safe therapies that can plausibly be expected to help with COVID. The truth seems to be that, if it isn’t a vaccine, the government doesn’t want to hear about anything that can help with COVID.
This article is misleading. All the data that it refers to here is based on In-Vitro studies, or small randomized studies where just two groups 4-6 individuals each, and one single institution were involved. That statistically is meaningless. One of the studies even say that, and calls for a larger, better designed study. Every responsible Scientist in any field knows that you need to use Statistically valid methodology, and that means to have AT LEAST a minimum of about 40 persons per group, and most have thousands on each group. And that is done after In-Vitro studies are performed, validated and peer reviewed, and none of them were able to fulfil those requirements in full. Not one single of your claims have a basis and do not expect me to back you up with those false and misleading claims. And more, I tried to get to those web sites like the Corona-Cure.com, and they were dropped/non existent. So if you want to be serious, put real Science-Backed up claims, not risible stories like this one.This article was written to fool the un-educated, and I do not support it at all.
This is INSANE. Even if there were only a REMOTE chance this easy-to-get nasal spray helped with this virus, it should be EMBRACED!! I have been using this spray (Xlear) for the past 8+ months precisely to help with this ‘Covid” Virus, as I’ve read the studies and felt it was a cheap way to possibly help stave off ANY virus and keep healthy (I also take a number of supplements). So far I have been healthy.
As time goes on, I am becoming almost completely distrustful of government agencies. TG for the good work ANH does.
The combo of Big Pharm, FDA and CDC is CALLED P A Y O L A !! $$
My conclusion is that if the above say something
is BAD it is actually GOOD ! And the reverse also.
Maybe the Feds don’t want Covid stopped until we reach a smaller population
Please allow people to make their own choices. If it doesn’t work, it’s on them. But, to dictate all these things that people may believe in is overstepping people’s rights. Before modern medicine, people relied on herbs, etc. many of which are a part of modern medicine today. And many of them worked. Many people still use knowledge that has been handed down by generations. Please don’t take this away.
This is proposterous!! The public should be able to buy this product! I don’t care what FDA says!! They don’t want the public to be well! They want to eliminate as many people from the planet!
For once, please do the right thing and give this natural method a chance to save lives without endangering them! My sister-in-law DIED TWO DAYS AFTER HER SECOND PFIZER VACCINE!!! There was nothing wrong with her.
“The truth seems to be that, if it isn’t a vaccine, the government doesn’t want to hear about anything that can help with COVID.” And the [non] vaccine isn’t effective either!!!
This is more than just good info, it is in fact very much excellent info, some of these sprays could also help out with dry nasal membranes which can be quite painful.
Yeah the government just does not want anything that will interfere with the drug companies making their massive amounts of money.
Where can we get it?
Please allow people access to all information. So many things are FDA approved, from food to medicine, are dangerous. We to be informed and have access to other therapies and protection.
I use North America Herb&Spice nasal spray! Sony Orega, ingredients; Emulsified oils of wild oregano, bay leaf, sage, and clove in a sea salt & spring water base! Get some melatonin and andrograpgis. A combination of melatonin and the Stuffed if herb, andrographis, may prove to be a potent treatment for the Covid pandemic virus! Early research suggests that melatonin can reduce the number of viral infections, including COVID-19 infections, especially in elderly people whose immune systems have degraded with age!
Heal your gut! Many people don’t know about lectin in foods! Research it!
This would be such a practical and cheap way to prevent being sick from COVID. Please please let this pass and let’s get it on the shelves in Drug Stores.
Thank you!

What is the harm in allowing INFORMATION about possible COVID treatment to be provided to the people of this world? Oh wait, I already know the answer, Big Pharma won’t profit from it. Do the right thing an allow the free flow of information and let people decide for themselves what treatment they want to use.
The point isn’t that nasal sprays are a magic COVID bullet. The point is that, during a pandemic, the government should embrace an “all of the above” approach to a novel public health problem, informing the public about safe therapies that can plausibly be expected to help.

You are killing people with this bullshit. How do you sleep at night??
FTC…CDC…FDA…do you have labs for testing these products, or even the vaccines??? I do know that the answer to this is NO…so you are taking companies data at their word…hahaha…that is so hilarious that people do not know this. All I can say is “How do you live with yourselves”????? Do the right thing and let the other treatments help people before they are hospitalized!!!

Quit killing the people of this country. Blood is on your hands!!! All for money. Stop being criminal and corrupt. Let people get the help they need to stay healthy and get healthy with ALL possible treatment options!!
I’ve used natural substances for various conditions and they have been helpful to me with no adverse side effects and I know many people who’ve done the same. please don’t restrict or stop the public from having access to info regarding natural sources that can be helpful to us!! Thank you.
Your refusal to accept the science behind the nasal and thoat treatments is outrageous.Unless Big Pharma stands to make a profit, you’ve decided to ignore any other scientific evidence. You did it with ivermectin, which now has 67 international clinical trials involving over 49,000 subjects. You are a disgrace to this country.
Many of us know how you love Covid and don’t want it to end or be resolved in any way. Do you have no sense of decency? Let people make their own decisions regarding flu and cold treatments they are willing to take.
Release ALL cures
CDC is no longer serving the purpose for which it was established, but has now become another mouthpiece controlled by the Progressives. They have abrogated their responsibilities and become purely political. Fortunately, there are still voices for truth, and the facts are still spreading via other-than-official channels. Here in my home we ascribe to the teachings and advice of the Frontline Doctors who have been censored and shut down by the far-left Democrats who are only interested in power and control. We need to stand up to this tyranny and remember that, as voters, we must make the choices that will bring freedom and reality back. The movement has begun- we must keep it alive. Set your sights on the November 2022 elections. We will prevail!
FTC, CDC, and FDA, I’m urging them to alert the public about the benefits of nasal irrigation for staying healthy during the pandemic.
The government is of the opinion that nothing is valid unless it is a vaccine. I think it maybe so the vaccines can be approved only if there is “no available treatment”.
Big problem that people cannot take their own measures to prevent or relieve the symptoms.
But also I need to say that under the present circumstances the companies make a mistake which may be easy to correct.
If you look at the warning letters from the FDA they say “your websites offered a non-alcohol-based consumer antiseptic nasal product1 for sale in the United States and that this product was intended to mitigate, prevent, treat, diagnose, or cure COVID-192 and other conditions in people.”
This – we have learned in Europe – is what you absolutely don’t say, because as soon as you promote anything as being a medical product which may mitigate, cure… etc. you have to prove our claim and the product needs to go through all the phases of clinical trials.
But we all need these products so find out what you can safely say so you won’t have to withdraw.
Maybe you can say, “It will support your body and nose” or “your immune system will like this product if you have a cold” – something very unspecific but still we get the picture.
Yes, it is tough times in the world and we have to live despite the censorship. I hope for you it will relieve when the medical emergency is abolished.
In the EU we have had these rules for some 20 years now and the ingenuity of the companies in what to call products and what to claim is quite impressive.
It would be nice if this could be offered to those who are considered a high risk for vaccination.
This along with vaccinations could help end this covid situation.
Please make this free for senior citizens and handicapped people too.
