If you are like me who use a neti pot to try to guard against cold and flu viruses the natural way, i read this artilcle today and it totally freaked me out. I am sure the studies will reveal more later on but for now, i am not going to be using my neti pot with tab water!!

I saw this on the news.
I saw this on the news. Really scary. I use the Neilmed packets with the little bottle to do nasal rinses twice a day as I have had alot of sinus problems for the last few years. I used to use distilled water but now just use tap water. I haven't changed from tap water yet. I just feel like I already have so many restrictions, now even my sinus rinse water??Damn!!
selichan, thanks for sharing.
selichan, thanks for sharing. early this yr, i'd used neti pots once and considered using it whenever i have major mucous issues...now i don't think i want to use it. in fact when i used it, i did use the tap water. i'll make sure i don't use tap water if i have to use it. thanks for sharing because i sure don't need additional health issues with my ic. ic in itself is all-in-one pain.
