Abstract
Epigenetic changes in the shape of the face have modified the airway leading to changes in breathing, like mouth breathing.
Mouth breathing in children has consequences leading to decreased nasal volume and dental malocclusions. Allergy
profiles have also increased over the last century topping 15 million Americans today improving the odds for mouth breathing
and its consequences. Allergy symptoms often include a sinus component that may be relieved, reduced, or eliminated using
a saline nasal spray complimented by xylitol. The mechanism of action, recommended usage, and safety profile of this novel
functional ingredient are discussed.
