Why Saline Matters
And Why Saljet Rinse Uses the Gold Standard
Saline has a long and storied history in the treatment of wounds.
Saline is simply purified water mixed with the correct amount of salt. After years of study, scientists and doctors have determined that a 0.9% concentration of salt in the water works best because it best matches the salt content within a person's cells.
From Ancient Trade to Modern Medicine
Salt has played a vital role throughout history, used to preserve food, enable long-distance travel, and even spark wars. In ancient China and medieval Africa, it was taxed and traded like gold. Its value laid the foundation for civilization, and later, for modern medicine.
Saline’s medical use began during the 1831 cholera epidemic, when doctors used it to combat severe dehydration. Over decades of research and clinical practice, 0.9% became the standard we still rely on today.
Today, Saljet Rinse delivers this proven formula in a convenient, portable format. This can be ideal for healthcare professionals, caregivers, and anyone who needs sterile saline on hand.
