THE SCIENCE BEHIND

XYLITOL-BASED PRODUCTS

XLEAR PRO-ACTIVE HEALTH UTILIZES THE BENEFITS OF XYLITOL

Xlear Inc. centers on proactive health—staying healthy through transformational hygiene. Xlear and Spry xylitol-based products support that goal.

From the time that Ignaz Semmelweiss first wrote about the need for physicians to wash their hands between patients and the time that it became the standard of care (or mandated because it wasn’t being done) was 150 years. Semmelweiss was ridiculed, laughed at, and discredited, but history proved him correct. Washing our hands and our nose are simple hygienic ways that we can stop the spread of bacteria and viruses.

The nose is where bacteria and viruses enter the body.  Nearly 75% of the visits to primary care physicians in the U.S. are related to upper respiratory issues. We can bring that number down significantly if we start washing our nose.

Wouldn’t it make sense to wash our nose with something that blocks viral and bacterial adhesion?

Xlear, Inc. relies on scientific research to provide innovative, effective paths towards health that are less expensive and more accessible.

Here is a list of studies for medical and dental professionals to study. They cover a host of areas around upper respiratory and oral health and provide a buttress for why xylitol and Xlear and Spry products should be recommended and used.
