Important information from the kids and my niece who was also here during my sick week and took Halo with the kids: It doesn't taste bad at all. It is better than taking a pill. The taste was pleasant and once you get over the initial shock of the spray at the back of your throat, you know what to expect and get used to it.
Product Information:
While
you can’t live your life in a bubble to stay germ free, you can protect
yourself and your family from airborne germs with new HaloTM, the
first ever patent-pending oral antiseptic spray that is clinically proven to
kill airborne germs you breathe in. Halo is scientifically proven to kill 99.9 percent
of infectious germs, including a broad spectrum of bacteria and viruses, such
as rhinovirus (the virus that causes the common cold), influenza and H1N1. With
just three easy sprays into the mouth (it comes in several flavors), Halo will
protect you from the Air You Share for up to six hours so you can breathe easy
and avoid the worry of those “Halo Moments.”

Here's my concerns about Halo.
ReplyDelete1) The box says not to use for more than 7 days unless recommended by a physician or dentist. Therefore, it's utility as an anti-infectant is limited for a very small portion of flu season (1 week).
Does this also mean that there is a toxic side effect to prolonged use?
2) Will Halo also kill friendly flora, making your more susceptible to infection?
3) The primary ingredient is a chloride based molecule. Basically, it's bleach. Is it a good idea to spray bleach in the back of your throat where you will swallow it on a routine basis?
