I'm not specifically questioning efficacy. I take Chris's word for it that
the xylitol beat out the saline spray in the study she cites. I merely am
throwing up a caution that adverse or allergic reactions can be
idiosyncratic and should be observed for when any new tx -- self-treatment
included -- is initiated. I would be interested to know what the research
shows about how many people have allergic or adverse reactions to this
artificial sweetener. The migraine literature suggests, for instance, that
artificial sweeteners are triggers for migraine, and sorbitol, at least, has
been identified as an issue for some sufferers of irritable bowel syndrome.
