Kanika Wahi Co-Inventor of NasalGuard ® Airborne Particle Blocker ® Beating Allergies This Season

NasalGuard ® Airborne Particle Blocker, A Topical Gel that Reduces Inhalation of Harmful Airborne Contaminants and Allergens and Is the Invisible Mask! Allergy Season’ is upon us and people are getting vaccines for COVID 19, for travel and to protect from other airborne allergens and pollutants. NasalGuard ® Airborne Particle Blocker ® is a drug-free electrostatic topical nasal gel that prevents airborne particles from entering the nose. We spoke to Kanika Wahi, Co-Inventor and Biomedical Engineer of NasalGuard ® Airborne Particle Blocker ®. NasalGuard ® has sold over 18M Units.

PVM: What led to your love of engineering? And did that career path draw you to want to work with your Engineer Dad Ashok Wahi on NasalGuard and at Trutek the parent company?

From an early age, I always had an interest in solving problems, biology, and physics and I have been fortunate enough to witness my father, the Co-Founder of Trutek, originally create NasalGuard as a drug-free alternative to help my sister avoid prescription allergy medications. We have successfully advanced the technology of NasalGuard which was originally focused on blocking allergens from entering the nose for preventing allergy symptoms. This breakthrough reformulation provides a greater electrostatic blocking effect that is effective against a much wider spectrum of sub-microscopic indoor and outdoor contaminants including mold, virus-sized particles, pollution, pollen, and pet dander.

PVM: Tell us about NasalGuard ® Airborne Particle Blocker.

NasalGuard is the only drug-free clear topical gel that is designed for the nose with patented ionic particle blocking technology. It works like a magnet. Patented NasalGuard gel uses a cationic (positively charged) polymer that creates a safe electrostatic field around the nasal passages that traps oppositely charged particles and repels similarly charged particles to reduce inhalation of most harmful airborne particles before they enter your body. You simply apply a pin-sized drop of the preventative gel around the nostrils and above the upper lip, allow it to dry and it lasts for up to 6 hours.

PVM: NasalGuard ® is non-invasive, drug-free and safe for children, the elderly, pregnant or nursing women. It has sold over 18 million units nationwide. Why do people choose NasalGuard ® for allergies, colds, and to avoid other airborne pollutants?

People use NasalGuard to guard themselves against everyday pollution, allergens, dust mites, and virus-sized particles. They use this added layer of protection because it’s portable, drug-free, invisible and safe for the whole family including children and pregnant women.

Patented NasalGuard gel uses a cationic (positively charged) polymer that creates a safe
