A SMART WOMAN'S GUIDE TO HORMONE BALANCE
In our practice, we frequently educate our patients about the most effective herbs and supplements to fight viral infections. Whether you’re looking for preventive measures or treatments when you’re already sick, there are numerous options to support your immune system. If you haven’t yet, grab my guide to preventing catching a virus:
For many patients, specialized protocols are necessary due to pre-existing conditions, frequent exposures, or compromised immune systems. We’re always here to help create personalized plans that take the guesswork out of prevention and treatment. A crucial point to remember: have your prevention and treatment supplies on hand before you get sick. Waiting until symptoms appear often means it’s too late to find what you need.
While wearing a mask is a good option, it’s not always practical. Today, we’ll discuss two simple yet effective tools that can help block viruses at their entry points—your nose and mouth. These strategies go beyond just wearing a mask, offering you an additional layer of protection.
Viruses like the common cold, flu, RSV, norovirus, and COVID-19 typically enter through your nose and mouth. What if you could create a hostile environment in these entry points, stopping viruses in their tracks? The good news is—you can! By sealing, sterilizing, and protecting the mucous membranes of your nose and mouth, you create a strong barrier that makes it difficult for viruses to establish themselves.
Let us introduce you to two powerful tools: Biocidin® Throat Spray and XLear® Nasal Spray. These work together to protect both your nose and the back of your throat. I personally carry both of these sprays with me, especially when in crowds or traveling, and I recommend my patients do the same.
Here’s how to use them effectively:
These sprays have antimicrobial and sterilizing properties, creating a protective shield that helps keep viruses out. XLear also contains xylitol, which coats the nasal passages to prevent microbes and allergens from sticking around. Together, they form a highly effective “1-2 Punch Against Viruses!”
Biocidin® TS offers rapid immune support, as shown in human clinical trials where athletes experienced a significant boost in immune activity within 60 minutes of use.
Here’s how it works:

Since viruses typically enter through the nose, it makes sense to use a nasal spray that blocks viral and bacterial adhesion. XLear Nasal Spray is scientifically formulated to promote respiratory health and defend against viral exposure.
The key ingredient is xylitol, which moisturizes and cleanses the nasal passages while preventing microbes from sticking. Unlike regular saline sprays, which can dry out your nasal membranes, XLear’s unique formulation keeps them hydrated and soothed.
Key benefits of XLear Nasal Spray include:
By using both Biocidin and XLear sprays, you can create a powerful, multi-layered defense against viral infections—whether you’re at home, in a crowded place, or traveling.
