From the Author
This book is written for those having problems with any one of the many nasal related conditions common in our world today. It tells how to get rid of those problems by helping, really by optimizing, the already present cleaning mechanism we all have in our noses.
If you have problems in the other areas of the body that are open to the outside world and commonly infected--the GI or the GU tract--you may be interested in the solutions found in our other book, The Boids and the Bees.

This review is from: No More Allergies, Asthma or Sinus Infections: The Revolutionary Approach (Paperback)
I just completed reading this book. It's really something. Take your college physiology book, warm it up a bit, change up the prospective from the outside to the inside, and imagine your grandpa reading it to you and you have an engaging explanation of the upper respiratory system that anyone can follow.
From cells to cilia; from mucus to humidity, Dr. Jones covers it all, and then tells us how to work with the confines of the human body, honoring the defense mechanisms that modern medicine has been working to overcome. Anyone who has studied the human body starts out with a reverence for it. We marvel at the systems, we stress over how they interact and counteract each other. Then we start to learn how to overcome the systems that have kept Homo sapiens on the planet for epochs. How arrogant are we? Dr. Jones' approach is not punitive, or condescending. He matter-of-factly states what we've always known, what we (modern medicine) have done about it, and what we can do about it to gain an upper hand. Don't think this book is kooky, or way out there. Dr. Jones doesn't mention moon phases, or distilling homeopathic medicines. He lets the reader know that our bodies are equipped to withstand most environmental problems, and when it can't we can help it along with inexpensive methods that are easy to find and not necessarily prescriptive. He also supports seeing a traditional physician when the problem is acute. Do yourself a favor, do your children a favor and read this book even if three of you have to go in on it together, which I doubt because it's about $15. Then read it again after you're finished for another dose of science, physiology and common sense. The Purple Guide: Developing Your Clinical Dental Hygiene Career

Educate yourself and teach others about this simple natural inexpensive treatment.,
This review is from: No More Allergies, Asthma or Sinus Infections: The Revolutionary Approach (Paperback)
While reading Dr Jones book my first thoughts naturally were, I wish I had known about this information when my kids were young. I feel like somehow I had my head stuck in the dirt like an ostrich or I have been cheated for all those years. Feeling cheated also lead me to feeling angry, angry that our country who provides the best medical care in the world while making sure we advance in patient care year after year fails to recognize a simple low cost treatment as a solution to upper respiratory infections in our population. Why? Plain and simple, it would eliminate the need for thousands of people to seek medical care for upper respiratory issues and our pharmaceutical companies and health-care systems would lose money. If it is not considered a drug than the FDA does not provide funding for studies and the public does not hear about it. Think about it. Why would anyone need a doctor to prescribe or pharmaceutical company to test a product that is all natural and contains no side effects? This is were our country fails us, by not educating our society on natural effective solutions for our health.
As I read this book the feeling all came back to me, my children suffering from allergies and ear infections year after year and me feeling helpless. Knowing an antibiotic is a temporary solution and wondering how much stronger of a dose my child would need with the next ear infection. Although my youngest is now ten all three of my children suffered with allergies and ear infections, also my son was diagnosed with mild asthma. I first came across xylitol when I was offered to do a review on the nasal product this past year, you can find my review on Xlear Nasal Spray on my blog Autumn Blues Reviews. I had jumped at the chance due to my son constantly suffering with allergies and of course his asthma. He had at that point outgrown ear infections but his asthma acts up when he gets a cold or an upper respiratory infection. There is so much information in this little book that I can only say, it is a must read for every parent and caregiver. Middle ear infections are looked at in great detail in this book and the reasons why antibiotics just don't work well enough anymore is only the tip of the iceberg in this book. We all know that antibiotics also kill good bacteria with the bad, but Dr Jones taught me about biofilm. Biofilm is built by bacteria and also comes in a good form and a bad form. Bacteria build biofilm and use it as a little safe house for them to hide in and this is the main reason antibiotics sometimes can't touch it, while doctors push a higher and higher dose on the patient. This is were xylitol comes into the picture. Dr Jones goes into detail about xylitol and he clearly talks about how such a simple sugar found in nature can change forever how our children are treated when it comes to colds, allergies, ear infections, sinus infections and dental health. But xylitol is not just for children it is also for adults and highly recommended for the elderly who are highly susceptible to acquiring and even dying from bronchitis and pneumonia due to upper respiratory infections. Because as Dr Jones points out throughout his book, it all begins in the nose. Dr Jones explains how bacteria binds to xylitol and eats it but instead the bacteria do not survive and instead are washed away from the nasal area. It is a preventive measure which should be done consistently during the winter, cold and flu season. Many physicians are either behind on these treatments or just don't take natural remedies into consideration which leaves us uniformed when it comes to a natural substance like xylitol. One thing to also consider is that just not any xylitol product will be effective. If the label does not list xylitol as the first or second ingredient on the product it will not be effective enough. If you want to get ahead of your pediatrician or family doctor read this book so you can also learn how cleansing the nasal passages with a product containing xylitol, such an inexpensive and easy to find product sold over the counter, when used daily can save your family on medical bills, trips to the doctors and needless suffering for your children, you an adult and the elderly.

Good information about xylitol. Gives background, scientific reasons, research for xylitol, and also results on people that have used product.
I wish that author would tell a little more of strength and method of usage.
