Solè solution can be effectively used to clean and flush the sinuses. The use of a neti pot (which can be purchased online or at a natural foods store) is the easiest way we know to clean and flush the sinuses. Prepare a 1% solè solution by dissolving two teaspoons of Full Spectrum Life Himalayan Fine Ground Crystal Salt into slightly more than one third of a cup of lukewarm water. This concentration is similar to the salt concentration in the body’s fluids and does not irritate the nasal passageways.
Once your solution is adequately dissolved, lean your head over a sink, and apply the beak of the neti pot into your nostril, while keeping your mouth closed. Lean your head slightly forward and slightly bend it to one side. The solè will flow through your nostril and come out the other nostril. Follow with the other side. Repeat this procedure as often as needed, but usually twice a day is sufficient. The 1% solution is also very effective for gargling when irritation of the mucous membranes in the nose, mouth or throat occur. Some find this technique helpful in alleviating allergy symptoms. A daily practice of this procedure is known to strengthen the immune system.
