"The gel was devised so as to be hold the zinc in place giving it time to be absorbed and do its work." Except for the fact that the stuff irritates your nasal passages so much that you instantly want to sneeze after you use it. That's what happened to me when I tried it. However, everybody on the thread assured me that the spray only had to be in contact with your nasal passages for a second or two to be effective. Therefore, I see no reason why zinc dissolved in saline solution wouldn't "work" just as well. This business about the gel staying in your nose longer is a load of bull IMHO. Why do you think the instructions say to hold your nose closed for at least a minute after application? It's to make sure the crap doesn't leak out!
