The Neti pot should be cleaned after every single use and either wiped with a cotton towel or left to air-dry so that there is no risk of contamination.
No. Ordinary salt that we use in our kitchens and day to day lives comes included with many preservatives to help it last longer. Using contaminated salt can add to your troubles by damaging the mucus lining and make you more prone to infections.
Always use distilled water or filtered water that has been boiled and cooled. Lukewarm water is a Neti pot’s best friend! Tap water is strictly not to be used in a Neti pot as Tap water contains small amounts of bacteria, protozoa and other microorganisms including amoeba. Tap water is still fine to drink as the stomach acid can kill such bacteria but the nasal cavity does not have such strong acids. Hence, tap water will do more damage than good.
We highly recommend that you do not share your Neti pot with anyone. It increases the risk of contracting an infection. There are many Neti pots made up of Copper, Ceramic and Stainless Steel which are offered by us that you can purchase for yourself and your family members.
