Aqua Maris Protecto Mechanism of Action

Ectoin is a 100% natural ingredient extracted from extremophile organisms. Extremophiles are microorganisms that can survive in extremely harsh environmental conditions, such as extremely high and low temperatures, pressure, high concentration of salt, UV radiation. To protect themselves from these harmful external effects, extremophiles synthesise Ectoin. In the same way, Ectoin can protect human cells from unfavourable external effects, such as allergens and irritants.
Ectoin creates a protective film, Ectoin-Hydro-Complex, on the nasal mucosa. This keeps allergens and irritants away from reaching cells and thus alleviates allergic reactions. Allergens and irritants cannot access the nasal mucosa, which makes it easier to remove them by blowing the nose. A mild hypertonic solution unblocks the nose naturally while the sea salt moisturizes the nasal mucosa.
