    I had a very severe cold for 2 weeks, and just when I finally thought I was over it, I felt it coming back. I had recently purchased Airborne (never tried them before) and I decided to take one at the first sign of my sniffles and sore throat, and with-in 2 hours I felt way better. I took another about 4 hours later just to be sure, and my cold hasn't returned (it's been 3 weeks). I'm going to place an order for more today. I wish I would have tried this stuff years ago. Tastes great compared to other cold medicine, and the container fits perfectly in my purse.

    Airborne was recommended to me by a friend. I googled it trying to find information as to its ingredients. The company site told me very little, but it offered a free sample by mail. I filled out the form, but never received my sample. I filled it out again and still didn't receive my sample. Then it was on sale at one of the health/vitamin outlets I shop at so I bought some. First time I took it was to prevent a cold. You could say it worked, b/c I didn't get a cold. I only took one tab. Second time I took it was a year later, I had a bad cold, so I took the maximum, which is 3 tabs that day. Next day I woke up itching, but my runny nose had stopped and I was stuffed up, which meant cold was going away. Then I took another tab that morning and by evening, I was scratching myself like mad, because I had full blown hives. The "proprietary blend" of mysterious herbs can be dangerous!!!I did some more research and found some information on [@], where one person suggested that why Airborne works is not because of the vitamins or herbs, but because of the BAKING SODA or sodium bicarbonate. This person takes 1/4-1/2 tsp. of baking soda 3X a day to ward off a cold and it works. So next time I'm going to try that, add some Emergen-C or take an acerola tab for vitamin C, then eat a huge portion of broccoli and double up on my daily multis!!I also just discovered that this company was sued for false advertising. You could supposedly get your money back, up to $15 if you bought Airborne on the assumption that it can prevent or "cure" (the big no-no word that gets companies in trouble w/FDA) a cold. Now it says, "boosts immune system."

    My Mother has glaucoma, and can not take many medicines, so I gave her Airborne, and I could not believe it. The next mornig she felt 90% better from her cold; she has been taking 2 a day for 3 days, and now feels 100% better.

    Both my husband and I love this product!!! I am a hair stylist, and I get sick people in my chair all the time. I use Airborne as soon as I feel like I'm catching something, I usually feel fine by morning if taken at night. It's amazing! I recommend this to everybody I know! My personal favorite is the orange flavor, it tastes like Tang.

    I'm a professor at a state university. College students are always bouncing their germs off one another, leaving them on university surfaces like doorknobs, my desktop, water fountains. I am exposed to their germs constantly. I keep Airborne in the house all the time, and, now that winter's here, I make use of it. This morning, I woke up with the telltale "head fog" of a cold, along with a painful sinus on one side of my head. I've been resting and using Airborne every three hours. The fog hasn't lifted completely, but I definitely don't feel like the trainwreck that I was this morning. In the past, Airborne has reduced the severity of colds and, funny thing, has made me wonder why I was thinking I was coming down with a cold. THAT's how well it works!

    I love this stuff so much. The pink grapefruit tastes amazing and it really does provide good immune system defense. It always helps me feel better and I've never gotten sick after taking it :)

    Comments about Airborne Effervescent Health Formula, Pink Grapefruit, 10 tablets:

    I'm generally a skeptical person on health fads, so when I was truly dog sick and saw this, I scoffed. Someone who I work with actually brought me some and I ended up using it that night. The next morning I was feeling so much better I couldn't believe it. It really sped up the incubation process that colds usually go through, and set me way a head of the being sick period I normally go through.
    I'd definitely recommend using it, though I only take it at the first sign of a cold instead of 3 times a day, it's definitely worth the money!

    Comments about Airborne Effervescent Health Formula, Pink Grapefruit, 10 tablets:

    This pink grapefruit flavor is a welcome addition to the Airborne products. I preferred the lemon lime, but now this is my new favorite. I do feel that Airborne helps ward off sickness, and if I do happen to get sick anyway it doesn't last as long as it would without Airborne. This is a great product to keep on hand during cold season.

    Comments about Airborne Effervescent Health Formula, Pink Grapefruit, 10 tablets:

    I work at a community college and colds, etc. are rampant. I use Airborne at the first sign of a tickle in my throat, or any cold symptoms, and they are zapped. My envious colleagues, having noticed how it works for me, have tried Airborne and are now convinced that it works, too. Pink Grapefruit is my favorite flavor so far. Thanks so much for carrying this wonderful product!
