See The 9 Best Neti Pots on Ezvid Wiki ►►
Fact #1. Nasal irrigation was first mentioned in Hindu scriptures as early as the 1700s. It was considered an important and necessary part of daily hygiene. In yoga, using a neti pot is part of one of the six daily cleansing practices. Yogis believe that keeping your nasal passages clear is especially important. They link clear breathing with clear thinking.
Fact #2. The neti pot didn't take hold in the West until the early 1970s. This is when the first mass-produced ceramic model became available. Created by the founders of Yoga International, this pot was designed to augment yoga's newly-widespread popularity.
Fact #3. The practice of nasal irrigation wouldn't be mainstream until the 2000s. It was up to the most important figure in the history of Western civilization, Oprah, to introduce the neti pot to a wide audience. Once nasal irrigation had the blessing of the Queen of Daytime TV, its popularity exploded. Dr. Oz has also promoted the use of these, and it's starting to gain a foothold in Western medicine, as well.
Fact #4. Using one of these is quite simple. All you do is warm up some salt water, pour the water in one nostril, and let it flow out the other one. The feeling takes some getting used to. Once you've felt how clear and unobstructed your nasal passages can be, there's no going back.
Fact #5. Make sure to keep your pot clean. Rinsing it out after every use is mandatory. You get extra credit if you use boiling water when you rinse it. You should wash it with soap and water every few days, or put it in the dishwasher if yours is safe. You absolutely do not want to stick a crusty, disgusting spout up your nose if you're trying to stay healthy.
