Is it necessary to use "Table" salt for your salt water cure recipe? My understanding is that Table salt has iodine and other additives (I just copied this ingredient list from a product on Amzn: salt, dextrose, potassium iodide, sodium bicarbonate and yellow prussiate of soda) which I might not want in my sinuses. Would a natural salt like Celtic or Himalayan work just as well? You also mention clean sea water...where would one obtain that? Also, you mention the amount of salt to use, but you don't specify the size of the mug.

Than you in advance for the clarifications!

Hi - I use table salt, but any salt will do, it is really what you can easily get that matters. When you see what the alternative is and what is in the Covid vaccines, then my simple salt water cure makes the choice pretty simple, I'd say. Would a natural salt like Celtic or Himalayan work just as well - sure, I'd say so. Some places still have clean sea water, some people go there on holiday, some live there all of the time - but if it's clean enough for you to go in for a swim, then it's clean enough to go up your nose, which it inevitably must, while you are swimming. A standard sized mug, the mugs in the shops are to a standard size here, bigger that a tea cup which is why I use them. The idea is to get enough salt water into your nasal areas, so that if you have a viral infection it burns and that burning sensation is the salt murdering the viral infection in the nasal passages of your head. If you are all clear, it does not burn at all, it is like flushing with plain water. The burning sensation only lasts for a short time, then blow out your nose, but while it burns, you know you have an infection and you are killing it and in effect waging a war inside your head, which you ARE going to win. It's been over 31 years since I've been ill from anything external to my body or incoming. Mixed with the vaxxed today at my local Chemist, had a salt water flush when I got home - all OK - but it seemed a bit iffy to begin with, almost like - you never know - sort of thing
