ANOTHER REALLY REALLY FAMOUS DAN QUOTE! "To rephrase my comment: Anyone that calls Zicam Cold Remedy "caustic", or "acidic" because it is a zinc salt does not know what they are talking about." IS THAT RIGHT? YOU WERE WRONG WHEN YOU SAID THAT ZINC GLUCONATE IS NOT A ZINC SALT. AND SOON YOU WILL SEE WHY IT IS JUST AS DANGEROUS TO THE NOSE AS INTRANASAL ZINC SULFATE. SPIN IT HOWEVER YOU WANT. TELL ME THAT THESE DOCTORS AND RESEARCHERS WERE WRONG. THEY WERE THERE AND THEY FOUND OUT THE HARD WAY BY PUTTING TOXIC/CAUSTIC ZINC IONS DIRECTLY ON THE OLFACTORY AREA OF HUMANS. REPEATED FOR DAN, "BY PUTTING TOXIC/CAUSTIC ZINC IONS DIRECTLY ON THE OLFACTORY AREA" June 26, 1937 Vol 108 #26 JAMA Journal of American Medical Association THE CHEMICAL PROPHYLAXIS FOR POLIOMYLELITIS: THE TECHNIC OF APPLYING ZINC SULFATE INTRANASALLY June 26, 1937 Vol 108 #26 By Max Peet M.D. Dean Echols M.D. Harry Richter M.D. "Zinc sulfate has long been used in diseases of the eye and nose with out a single instance of serious harm resulting. With such a weak solution as 1 per cent, the strength recommended for nasal instillation and in the small quantity used, we feel certain that no serious sequelae (after-effect of injury) will result. However, it was found that when zinc sulfate was actually applied to the olfactory area, it produced a severe burning or smarting sensation with coryza (nasal mucus) and in most subjects a severe headache, which lasted for several hours. Zinc sulfate introduced into the lower portions of the nose does not produce such symptoms. It is only when it is applied to the olfactory area that this pain results." LAST TWO SENTENCES REPEATED FOR DAN. "Zinc sulfate introduced into the lower portions of the nose does not produce such symptoms. It is only when it is applied to the olfactory area that this pain results." IN CASE YOU DIDN'T KNOW, THEY BOTH CONTAIN ZINC IONS.
