Answer:

Topical nasal decongestants

Explanation:

   Nasal decongestants are vasoconstricting substances (like: naphazoline, phenoxazoline, oxymetatazoline, phenylephrine, pseudoephredine) that provide almost immediate relief to breathe. They act making the vessels contract, blood flow slows, shrinks swollen membranes, mucus production is low, and people can breathe normally again because these substances improve the air flow.

   Topical nasal decongestant treat nasal congestion to relieve symptoms in colds, nasal allergic conditions, and rhinitis. However, these medications can cause health problems due to improper and excessive use, and major adverse events arising from their use.

If you pick-up a magazine, watch TV, or listen to the radio, you're bound to encounter an advertisement promoting a new diet and
Andreas93 [3]
Ketogenic diet (keto diet).

It’s a low-carb, high-fat diet which encourages the body to burn fats instead of carbohydrates.

It might not work if you don’t get the food proportions right. The person may not cut enough carbs out of their diet (they won’t lose weight).

It also doesn’t work for everyone (There is some explanation behind it but I don’t know it, sorry. However, you could say that just like other diets, it just doesn’t work for some people and their metabolism).
