Our mission is to make one simple, gentle habit part of every home's winter.

Our story

We did everything right. It still went around the house.

Why our founder, John Woods, made Puleia.

A couple laughing together at home

Every winter looked the same. Vitamins on the counter. Hand sanitizer in every bag. Everyone washing their hands the second they walked in. And every winter, one person brought something home, and it went around the whole house anyway.

So we started reading. Not wellness blogs, the actual research. And one thing kept coming up: the nose.

You breathe about 20,000 times a day, and every breath goes through your nose first. It's where most of what's going around lands. And it's the one place nobody cleans.

Hospitals have trusted iodine as an antiseptic for more than a century. It's what they use on skin before surgery. But there was no simple, gentle way to use it where you actually breathe in.

So we made one. Puleia is 1% iodine with fulvic acid in a small nasal spray, made to be gentle enough for every day. Two sprays in each side when you walk back in the door. Five seconds. That's it.

We sell it only on our own website, we answer every email ourselves, and we'd rather keep it simple than add a single thing you don't need.

How it works

The Science Behind Puleia

A simple formula built on one of the most trusted antiseptics in medicine, made to go where you breathe in.

The active ingredient

Iodine: the antiseptic hospitals have trusted for over a century

Puleia is built around 1% iodine, the same family of antiseptic hospitals use on skin before surgery. We paired it with fulvic acid so it's gentle enough to use every day, and put it in a simple nasal spray so it goes exactly where you breathe in.

Step 1

Why the nose?

Your nose is the first stop for nearly everything you breathe in. The lining of the nasal passages is where many airborne germs first land. It's warm, moist, and exactly where they settle in before you ever feel a thing.

Most people clean their hands many times a day, and never clean the one place they breathe through 20,000 times a day.

Step 2

Why iodine?

Iodine has been used as an antiseptic since the 1800s. Today, iodine solutions are what hospitals use on skin before surgery.

It's a broad-spectrum antiseptic: it breaks down the outer structure and proteins of germs on contact, which is why it acts quickly. And because it works this way, germs haven't been shown to become resistant to it the way they can to some other treatments.

Step 3

Simple ingredients, nothing hidden

Every bottle of Puleia has just four ingredients. The iodine does the cleansing. Fulvic acid, a natural mineral complex from plant matter, keeps it gentle. Purified water carries it, and a food-safe preservative keeps every bottle fresh.

No steroids, no decongestants, no fragrances.

What's inside Puleia

Four ingredients. Nothing hidden.

Active

Iodine 1%

From potassium iodide. The antiseptic at the heart of the formula. Kills 99.99% of germs within the nose.

Gentle

Fulvic acid

A natural mineral complex from plant matter that pairs with the iodine and keeps the formula gentle enough for daily use.

Base

Water + preservative

Purified water carries the formula. Potassium sorbate, a gentle food-safe preservative, keeps every bottle fresh.

How it compares

Not a saline. Not a decongestant.

Saline spray

Rinses only

Salt water moistens and rinses the nose. It doesn't contain an antiseptic.

Decongestant spray

3-day limit

Shrinks swollen tissue for congestion. Using it more than 3 days can cause rebound congestion.

Puleia

Daily nasal cleanse

1% iodine + fulvic acid. Made for every day: no steroids, no rebound, no 3-day limit.

Step 4

How to use it

1

Before you go out

1–2 sprays in each nostril in the morning, before you're around people.

2

Every time you walk back in

After work, school pickup, flights, the store or family gatherings. Tilt your head slightly forward.

3

Let it absorb

Give it 15–30 seconds. A brief tingle is normal and fades fast.

4

One bottle each

A spray tip touches the inside of the nose, so everyone in the house should have their own bottle.

I'm actually impressed

I don't know if it's luck or this spray but everyone around me has been getting sick and somehow I've been fine 😂 I've been using it every morning and after work. Whatever it's doing, I'm not stopping now.

Didn't expect much

I was VERY skeptical when I ordered this lol. My husband was already sick and I started using it right away. I somehow never got what he had. Can't prove it was the spray but yeah… I'm definitely using it all winter.

I actually remember to use it

This takes like 5 seconds so I actually stick with it. Mine sits beside the hand soap and I use it when I get home from being around people. I've felt great so far and I'm really happy I found it.

Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Does it sting or burn?

Most people feel a mild tingle for a few seconds. That's normal, and it fades fast.

Can I use it every day?

Yes, it's made for daily use. There's no steroid or decongestant in it, so there's no rebound and nothing to get dependent on.

Is it safe for children?

Yes, Puleia can be used by children over 4 years old. An adult should help with the spray, and follow the dose on the label. It's not for children under 4.

Can I use it if I'm pregnant or have a thyroid condition?

Puleia is not recommended during pregnancy or while breastfeeding. If you have a thyroid condition or take thyroid medication, ask your doctor first. Don't use it if you're allergic to iodine.
