Theglandular cells produce a liquid (secretion)， which warms and moistens the air that is breathed in (approx. 10 000 litre daily)and， at the same time， absorbs dust， dirt， germs etc. The cilia are in constant motion and transport absorbed foreign particles，as like on a conveyor belt， back out or ? via the throat ? to the stomach. When the mucous membranes dry out， their natural protective function is no longer guaranteed.Nisita® contains the salts sodium chloride and sodium bicarbonate. The salt content is tailored to the needs of the nasalmucous membrane and aids the regeneration thereof. Sodium and chloride are responsible， being major ions， for maintaining osmotic pressure and therefore various bodily functions. Owing to their hygroscopic effect， they create a moist environmentin the nose.As a buffer system， sodium bicarbonate keeps the pH faintly alkaline， thus enabling the cilia to function properly.The functions of the nasal mucous membrane are thus ideally boosted. The cleaning function of the mucous membrane isaided. Existing crusts and scabs are gently softened. Symptoms such as itching， burning and sneezing are able to bealleviated.

All of our bodily fluids contain salts. The saltin every cell in the body regulates metabolism， which is indispensable for cell regeneration. The salt in cells is more or lessvital for every bodily function. Our brain impulses are only able to be transmitted if the ?salt content“ is right.As far back as in primitive times， salt deposits， which could even be found in high mountainous regions， formed from dried out seas. At around roughly 10， 000 B.C.， man put down roots and began cultivating plants and crops. As man had previouslyobtained enough salt from the animal-based food caught as a hunter， man probably began to consciously add salt to food atthat time. Settlements were formed close to salt deposits and man first started mining for salt. The Egyptians， Sumerians and Babylonians used salt from dried out lakes and from the sea as a preservative. Knowledge was passed on with the help of writings. The term “salary” emerged then. It derives from salt and was a form of payment. Soldiers were often paid for their services precious salt vices.In the Middle Ages， towns， which were known owing to their trade in salt， grew into metropolises and gained in influence.Centres developed at major points along the salt trade streets. For instance， Munich and Rome owe their existence to salttrade. Even today， these salt trade towns can still be recognised by their names， e.g. Bad Reichenhall， Halle， Salzburg orSalzgitter. (Celt: salt = hall). The great importance of salt led to wars and political power struggles among rulers.CompositionNisita® Nasal Ointment 100 g ointment contains 2.8 g sodium chloride 7.2 g sodium bicarbonateNisita® Nasal Spray 1 ml isotonic solution contains
