There are a lot of people highly dependent on nasal sprays. It’s just a fun name around our house, but I’m sure proper branding would turn in some sales. Xylitol does not kill germs, btw. Xylitol is purely a prophylactic. Xylitol stops pathogens from binding into your mucosae. It make your respiratory passage “slippery”. Nothing can bind, therefore nothing can grow and spread.
Xylitol works in exactly the same manner for your teeth while allowing good bacteria to stay, and not letting bad bacteria bind to your teeth. The staff at my dentist office can’t wait for my next visit because I bring them the tooth powder I make and they love it.
Tooth Powder Recipe
2 Tbs Xyliotol crystals
2 Tbs Baking Soda
2 Tbs Bentonite Clay or Diatomaceous Earth
20 drops oregano oil (👈 that one is a bad bacteria annihilator - careful it is very hot 🔥🌶)
20 drops mint and or cinnamon oil
Put it all in an herb grinder to mix thoroughly. Wet you tooth brush and dip into the powder.
Leave out the dirt from the above recipe and mix it all in a quart of water and it’s a helluva mouthwash. Shake well before using because those oils will not dissolve.

A woman I worked with complained about ants or some other insect getting into her house. She said she didn't want to use chemicals so I suggested she try diatomaceous earth.
Her: "I don't want to use chemicals."
Me: "It's not a chemical. It's naturally occurring. It's the remains of ancient sea critters. You can eat the stuff."
Her: "No. I don't want to use chemicals."
I've encountered a similar mindset many times during the 'rona nonsense.
"There are some people you just can't reach."
