Does its job, and free shipping on Amazon Prime

I bought this salt because it’s the cheapest one available through Amazon Prime and i wanted all my nasal irrigation items to arrive together. It does the job, and is a fine substitute until my 3 pound bag of pickling salt arrives by standard mail (and at half the price of this 10 oz jar).

We have used these (I have ordered 4 for each family member) and it has helped keep our sinus’s clear. I am trying to cut down my dependency on sinus medication and this has really helped. I find using this in the morning is better than using it at night. Nighttime use seems to stop my ears up a little, but my husband likes to use it at night. To each his own.

I have not purchased this product. Here’s why…
I buy 26-ounce sized non-iodized salt from my local Giant for 0.49 cents. I’ve been doing this successfully for years to treat my seasonal allergies, and allergic rhinitis.
I mix 1-teaspoon of the non-iodized salt into a quart container of luke-warm water. I then pour 8-ounces through each nostril using my neti pot, alternating between nostrils. This technique works quite well for me.

The product came right away. I have sinus problems and saw this on the Oprah show and bought the Neti Pot, ran out of the salt so this is a reorder. Amazing and easy and it works.
Fantastic companion to Neti Pot

Used in unison with the Neti Pot, this gentle salt solution is perfect for cleansing the sinuses. This is pharmaceutical grade salt that does not burn the sinuses. Great relief from sinus drainage and allergies.
salt clumps
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
i got this salt with the kit, included w/ zinc remedy and ceramic neti pot. my purpose is for immune system support and protection. i usually use it after being in public places.
pro’s:
- it’s better than using regular table salt!
- dissolves well if you add a little hot water first and shake/swirl the pot, rather than taking a spoon and ‘stirring’ after adding all the lukewarm.
con’s:
- ‘measuring spoon’ is hard to use. i’m never sure if i have the right amount.
- salt forms big clumps that have to be scraped every time i use it. i live in a high-humidity place…most bathrooms are high-humid anyway.
High-priced table salt

This is salt, people. You’re paying through the nose for SALT!
The package insert with my Ancient Secrets brand neti pot states that “non-iodized table salt is the best source of the salt for mixing the saline solution.”
You need 1/4 teaspoon, dissolved in warm water, for each use.
For a list price of $6.99 (on sale for $5.20 as I write this), you can buy 10 ounces of this Himalayan Institute non-iodized salt. That works out to 69.9 cents per ounce (or 52 cents at the discounted price) for plain old NaCl.
I bought a 14.5-ounce countainer of high-end natural gourmet table salt — Cerulean Seas refined sea salt, fine crystals, completely additive-free and iodine-free — for $1.59 (regular full price) at Whole Foods Market. It’s food grade and pure, and costs less than 11 cents an ounce.
This Himalayan Institute salt says it’s “pharmaceutical grade.” The Cerulean Seas is “food grade.” The quality standards are the same, and if anything, the food grade is purer.
The question is, do you want to pay 70 cents (or 52 cents) or 11 cents an ounce for salt?
Save your money.

Not Cheap But You Are Worth It
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
If you’re flushing your nostrils with a neti pot, the water has to be distilled (like bottled drinking water) and the salt has to be kosher, Neti Pot salt or non-iodized salt. Anything else will irritate your nostrils. Carefully mix the solution properly. This Neti Pot salt is perfect and will last quite a while even if you flush several times a day. You don’t have to spend a lot of money on kosher salt, but you don’t want to make your sinus’s worse. Caution with all products.

This is the best. Doesn’t burn or bother my nose at all. It’s well worth using with the neti pot.

I never recieved the Neti Pot or salt! It took several attempts to get my money back. Not a good experience.

I would suggest that you buy sea salt, and mix it 2 parts salt to 1 part baking soda. Sinuclense uses both ingredients an costs a fraction of what this does. Use sea salt, kosher salt, or even pickling salt, you want to make sure the salt you are using is pure. Don’t overpay for convience.

My pharmacist tells me this is nothing but table salt. I’m sure this doesn’t cake as much as table salt. But when my jar was empty, I replaced it with table salt and I see no difference.

The family has been pleased with using the Neti Pot.
The purchased Mineral Salt to use in the Neti Pot is very soothing especially when you cannot go duck your head in the ocean waters at this time of the year.

Doesn’t Work for Me
Rating:2 out of 5 stars
I have been using it for 4 months, and I don’t think this “Neti pot” thing works. I end up finding the right medicine (Zyrtech) that helps me a lot.
I am still using my Neti pot whenever I come back from an extended period in outdoor and right after bed time. The idea of cleaning up stuffs from my noses is still appealing. But I doubt this thing really works.
The only thing that I can recommend this Neti pot thing is that I can use it to clean up hardened stuffs from my noses easily using Neti pot. Water running though the hardened stuffs can quickly soften them and wash them away. It is definitely better than using any other mean to clean those stuffs.

Good clean salt that doesn’t burn when in the right ratio
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
I’ve bought this exact salt from several sources on Amazon and have been happy with it. When used as recommended with the included little spoon, or by putting a heaping teaspoon into 2cups of warm water, I get a solution which cleans out my nose without burning or unpleasant sensations. The container is a good size and can be refilled with bag salt of the same type. I can carry this little jar with my when I travel without any hassles from airport security. Pharmaceutical grade salt like this only gets so cheap but I prefer it to “natural sea salt” which has who-knows-what in it. Clean and pure without iodine or baking soda (both of which hurt like a SOB), this is the only salt I use now in my Neti Pot. I’ve experimented with other stuff but keep coming back to this and I don’t experiment any more.

This is a must have if you have Netti Pot
I tried using sea salt, but it felt a bit harsh & took a little longer to dissolve.
Works fine

I expected this salt to dissolve more easily than other store-bought brands, but it doesn’t really. However, it does what it’s supposed to, so I guess it’s fine.

Salts work well in conjunction with the Neti Pot. Clears my sinuses and helps with allergy stuffiness. Good purchase for me
Very Disappointed
Rating:1 out of 5 stars
I was very disappointed, I ordered the jars but received 2 bags which didn’t work for me as I needed the 1 jar for storage and 1 jar to ship to a friend. If I new it came in bags I would not have ordered it, or at the least I should have been notified that it did not come in jars as advertised.
Don’t forget to purchase the Netipot Salt!
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
This product goes hand-in-hand with the Neti Pot. Instructions say that Kosher Salt is just as good but this salt is even finer, which means less stress for your sinus!
