Neti Pot
The Neti Pot and its usage gained exposure when Dr. Mehmet Oz introduced it on The Oprah Winfrey Show. Dr. Oz stated that a warm salt water solution, when allowed to flow through the nasal passages, can reduce cold, flu and other nasal symptoms.International Herald Tribune: Short, Stout, Has a Handle on Colds (January 8, 2008)How to Use a Neti Pot
First clean your pot thoroughly and then fill it with warm water. Add 1/8 teaspoon of non-iodized or Neti Pot salt to distilled or boiled and cooled tap water, and stir. Lean over a bathtub or sink and tilt your head to the right. Place the spout into the upper nostril and open your mouth slightly. Begin to slowly pour the water into the nostril. The water should flow out of your lower nostril. Continue until you have emptied the pot. Lean over the sink or tub and forcefully blow through your nose. Repeat on the left side. It is recommended to remove all traces of the salt water from your nose, by bending at the waist and dropping your head toward the floor. As you turn your head from left to right, blow forcefully through your nose.Mayo Clinic: What is a Neti Pot?YouTube Video: Neti Pot-
