Xlear Products Review

Tweet

I am so excited to share with you a wonderful line of sinus congestion relief products.  I have year-round allergies.  I use an oral antihistamine every day of my life, but that is often not enough to keep my sinuses clear.  For years, I have been using a nasal rinse at least 4-5 times per week, and it has kept me from having colds.  I am often amazed at the junk that comes out of my nose (sorry to be gross, but it is true), but if it keeps my sinuses clear and sickness at bay, I will do it.  My mom refuses to do it, but it works for me.

I jumped at the chance to try all three of the following products:

DAILY Care: Xlear Sinus Care Spray

It is important to keep your sinuses moisturized on a daily basis. The Xlear Sinus Care Spray does just that, using an all-natural xylitol and saline based solution containing zero chemicals, antihistamines or decongestants that can leave your sinuses overly dry and irritated. Using the nasal spray daily will significantly reduce dryness and decrease the risk of infection. The Xlear Sinus Care Spray (pump-mist) retails for $13.49 and can be purchased at Whole Foods, Vitamin Shoppe and online at www.xlear.com. 

MODERATE Care: Xlear Sinus Care Neti

Sinus passages are the body’s first line of defense. With every breath a person takes, the nasal and sinus passages filter airborne contaminants and pollutants from the air, which help that person stay healthy and enjoy a better quality of life. The Xlear Sinus Care Neti puts a new twist on the age-old practice of using a neti pot to clean, soothe and moisturize the sinuses. Used for moderate congestion, Xlear’s patented xylitol-infused neti pot solution will clear sinuses of debris and containments that build up and can lead to infections. It should be used for seasonal sinus concerns, nasal dryness, exposure to any airborne contaminants, or exposure to a cold, dry or smoky environment. Retailing for $14.95, it can be purchased at www.xlear.com. 

MAXIMUM Care: Xlear Sinus Care Rinse

The Xlear Sinus Care Rinse contains a uniquely designed squeeze bottle that can be used for positive pressure rinsing of the nasal passages. The Sinus Care Rinse Solution included in the package combines the traditional nasal sinus cleaners of sea salt and sodium bicarbonate with the added benefits of xylitol. Using this solution with the “positive pressure” bottle is the most effective way to clean, soothe and moisturize your sinuses. Keeping your sinuses clear of airborne contaminants and other irritants helps improve air flow and maintain overall respiratory health. With just a squeeze of Xlear’s uniquely designed bottle, the Sinus Care Rinse Solution reaches deep into your sinuses for maximum relief of nasal irritation due to seasonal sinus issues, exposure to airborne contaminants, and nasal passageway or sinus irritation and dryness. Retailing for $14.95, it can be purchased at www.xlear.com. 

I can imagine that you are wondering what I thought about all these items.  Well, let me tell you.  When I was a child, I lived on OTC nasal sprays until the doctor told me I was overusing them.  Then I used the prescription nasal sprays, but they are expensive and often quite a pain.  So I switched to saline nose sprays.  The Xlear nasal spray tops any of these!  My sinuses were instantly moisturized.  In fact, I often used this nasal spray right after using the other products.

As to the Neti, I am still not a fan of this method.  I love the contents of the packet that I put in the water, but I often find that this method irritates my sinuses minimally.  It works, but I just don't always liked the process.  It would have been nice to have a lid on the pot as well.  Transporting the water from the kitchen to the bathroom was not always so easy.

My favorite item is the Sinus Care Rinse.  This is my preferred way to clear my sinuses, and this one is the best I have ever tried.  There is no doubt that the packet that goes in the water works really well to clear me out.  The only thing I don't like is that sometimes when I lean forward, water will come out of my nose.  And it often happens on the most inopportune times.  But I will say that this is a small price to pay for having clear sinuses.  

As a side note, I am the only one in my family this season who did not completely come down with a cold.  What I mean by that is that I fought off a cold through the use of this product and some immune support products.  Everyone else in this house got at least one cold.  My dad, who never gets sick, got a cold.  And my mom got three colds this season.  I do believe these products helped keep my sinuses clear.

Be sure to check out the links in this review.  These are fantastic products, and I think I may just have to invest in these products in the future.
