    NasalGuard Cold and Flu Block Review

    Jan 19, 2022 · Modified: Oct 3, 2025 by Ali · 10 Comments

    NasalGuard Cold and Flu Block is a drug free gel that helps to reduce the chance of you getting sick from cold and flu viruses. Spread a small amount around your nose and it forms an invisible barrier to trap and block airborne viruses.

    Whenever the children head back to school after the holidays it usually brings with it a plague of germs. Not a September leaves without some germ being shared between friends and quite often our new back to school routine is upset with sick children and time off school. I hate getting ill with cold and flu symptoms as I am so busy and my daughter has a delicate chest which requires her to use an inhaler when she is poorly. You can understand therefore why I am very keen to avoid coughs and colds so when I was offered the chance to review NasalGuard's Cold and Flu Block I jumped at the chance.

    This little tube promises miracles - it is a drug free gel which claims to reduce your chances of catching the cold and flu virus. The science behind this is a little above my head but essentially the gel is positively charged so repels the negatively charged viruses. Because it is drug free it is suitable for children and pregnant and nursing mothers. Having spent a LOT of the last 15 years either pregnant or breastfeeding it is great to find something that is suitable to use in this phase of life. Unlike antiviral nasal sprays it contains no harsh chemicals or drugs which makes it preferable to me as it is more natural.

    How to apply NasalGuard Cold and Flu Block

    The cold blocker gel comes in a little tube, is scentless and a little bit goes a long way. It isn't sticky and doesn't leave any residue so even my youngest child was happy to put it on every day before school. You just apply a thin layer of the topical flu block around your nose and upper lip, literally 10 seconds and you are done.

    Does NasalGuard Cold and Flu Block work?

    Now I can't honestly say if this product worked, but I can truthfully say that we haven't caught any colds or flu since we have been using it, and as I said, September is the time we usually do so I am happy that it has been effective. The reviews on Amazon are positive too which is a great sign.

    The ionically charged gel attracts small cold and virus particles which are then trapped on the sticky gel and essentially deactivated preventing them from entering your body. Tests showed that it captured 4 x as many airbourne particles as a placebo product.
