Xlear’s compound (grapefruit seed extract and xylitol) causes coronavirus infection-19 (COVID-19) in a new in vitro study conducted in collaboration with Utah State University and Northwestern University. It has been shown to significantly eliminate SARS-CoV-2.
The imaging study was conducted at the BioCryo facility at the NUANCE Center at Northwestern University.
In this study, the titer and long-term reduction value (LRV) of SARS-coronavirus-2 for a single concentrate of clear nasal spray was examined. According to this study, “after 25 minutes of contact with the nasal spray, the virus per 0.1 mL of the spray decreased from 4.2 log10 CCID50 to 1.7 log10 CCID50, resulting in a statistically significant 2.5 log10 CCID50 reduction (P<0.001). The Northwestern University/Utah State University joint study is the latest in a series of studies that led to the conclusion that Clear's nasal spray was effective against SARS-Coronavirus-2.
This study opened a new chapter in two important points. “First, clear nasal sprays not only eliminate SARS-Coronavirus-2, but also the increasing mutant SARS-Coronavirus-2,” said Professor Mark Cannon of Northwestern University’s Feinberg School of Medicine. “Second, we used electron microscopy to obtain visible evidence that xylitol and GSE (grapefruit seed extract) fight this virus, along with the future H1N1 virus. . GSE kills the virus and xylitol prevents the virus from sticking to the cell wall. The image (attached) shows a condition where SARS-Coronavirus-2 is outside the cell and does not stick to the cell, preventing infection.” This study suggests that xylitol acts to attract SARS-coronavirus-2, preventing the virus from sticking to the nuclear protein in the cell wall.
This joint study concluded that “the use of xylitol/grapefruit seed extract (X/GSE) synthetic therapy is risk-free, (Clear)’s nasal spray is available over-the-counter, and (Clear)’s product provides a long and comfortable wearing of the mask. Because of this, the adoption of this prophylactic antiviral therapy should be encouraged.”
