the 2012 trivial drivel thread

[Teacher]

Patients that irrigate their noses with a neti pot should use distilled, sterile, or previously boiled water, Raoult Ratard, MD, a Louisiana state epidemiologist, said in the statement.

The agency also noted that patients should rinse devices like the neti pot after use and to allow it to air dry.

These are the only relevant points. Follow the directions and the stupid things are totally safe to use and helpful for many people.

User, that's exactly what my son said. He sent that to me to make sure I used the distilled, sterile, or boiled water. Personally, I find it much easier and more effective (for me) to use the Entsol.
