    CF Wind Sprint 53: Keeping your nasal passages clear with Nozin

    After receiving a Facebook message asking about how he keeps his nasal passageways clear and germ-free, Jerry took to his Wind Sprint page to share his response. As a part of his daily hygiene, Jerry uses Nozin, a nasal sanitizer, to kill the germs in his nasal passageways – and it lasts up to eight hours. He demonstrates two different ways of using the product – one that is more for daily use and one that is better to use while traveling. Keep sending Jerry your questions via Facebook and Twitter!
