That press release is an FDA regulators wet dream. I see multiple clinical claims based on preclinical tests in cell cultures with a final call to action “if you want to buy this product for your employees” email us.
Apparently the laws are different in Estonia but this company has a San Francisco office.

I really hate "regulation!" comments like this.
Who cares if this company has an SF office? How is that relevant?
A quick Google search shows that the company has marketing authorization for the nasal spray in Estonia and is only selling it there.

That is literally just text on a field from the same company making these claims. Where is there evidence of this treatment working or even a hint that it’s worth researching more?
Evidence from the suspicious company itself claiming that it’s not suspicious is too tautological an argument to accept

Huh? Are you suggesting that the company is illegally selling this spray in the US or other countries where it would be unlawful to do so? If so, please present your evidence.

You can reasonably raise questions about the efficacy of the treatment. Screaming "Where's the FDA?!?" when the company explicitly states that it is only selling the treatment in a country where it has authorization to do so is silly.

This article is from August and makes many claims without providing any sort of studies to back it up. I went looking for any study related to this and found a _single_ study listed here[1]. This study apparently only had 16 participants, and failed to post any results despite apparently finishing in the beginning of June
