Editorial Reviews for Airborne Effervescent Health Formula Dietary Supplement, Lemon-Lime, 10-Count Containers (Pack of 3)
Consumer reviews:
Customer Rating: Summary: Airborne just another hyped up scam Comment: I broke down today and purchased two little individual "Airborne Effervescent Heath Formula" tablets. I was desperate. I'm going away for the holiday, driving several hours and I feel a cold coming on. But when I sat down and started to read the ingredients, I stopped. Then I threw them in the garbage and popped a Cold-eeze.
Just like when this product first came out and everyone said it was SO amazing, I backed away. I'm not so concerned about the Vitamin C.. Yes, it's a high dose and I certainly wouldn't eat three of these tablets a day. The high dose of vitamin C would give me stomach problems, I know that much. What REALLY concerns me is when I don't know WHAT the ingredients are? Such as "chinese vitex", "isatis", "lonicera",..and so on. I don't have the time to go look up each of these ingredients and find out what they are, what they do, if they are safe/how they interact with other medications, etc etc. The bottom line is: This product has not been evaluated by the FDA. No true studies have been done to prove it's safety OR effectiveness as a cold-killer. ..And herbal remedies can interact poorly with other meds. Can even be dangerous in some cases.
The Only thing I have ever used that shortened the length and severity of my colds is a product called COLD-EEZE. If you eat two a day when you first start to get sick, there is a decent chance it will help you. It's not a cure-all. And they taste disgusting. But they do usually help me. (About 75% of the time?) Another thing that can assist with boosting your immune system is something called Naked Juice. It's 100% juice, with lots of naturally occurring vitamins/minerals. Not all are tasty. But there are many to choose from. I think it's a bit more beneficial then drinking plain ol' orange juice...though OJ will never go out of style! Customer Rating: Summary: Airborne works GREAT! Comment: What a great product...I have been using it since it first came out and I find that is does work! What was even better for the purchase of this product was to find a great deal at Amazon, which was 3 for $10..I then ordered enough quantity to get it shipped free and I also didn't have to pay 7.75% state tax! Customer Rating: Summary: Garbage. Comment: Does not work. I do not believe any testimony here that it does work. Sometimes having a scratchy throat doesn't mean that you are getting sick. I don't how many times that I thought that but hours later I was just fine without taking anything.
No to the reviewer that posted that vitamin C causes oxidation and cancer. That is pure garbage given out by those that want to promote their drugs. There is no proof for that but only some bone-heads medical speculation. I have found mega doses of vitamin C has worked wonders for stopping a cold in its tracks. I had to take about 2000mg every half an hour until it stopped. Your so-called vitamin C oxidation doesn't hold water to many respectable doctor's out there that would even consider giving a person intravenous injections. They tell us that people who die from colds and flu's have no vitamin C in their bodies. Vitamin C is needed to fight free radicals but your body does not produce them like certain animals whose bodies does.
The best stuff that I found that knocks colds and flu's out of you is Sambucol. I haven't found one doctor trying to refute the claims that Sambucol makes. They have tested it and found that it reduces the flu by up to 3 to 4 days. It out performed Tamiflu and has killed the Bird Flu virus in test tubes. Type it in your computer search engine and read it all for yourself.
Other great products are Beta Glucan, Del-pro, Del Immune. Read about all these products for yourself on the internet and see for yourself the results or you can waste your money on a teacher that had something whipped up but had no scientific study to prove her claim. Oh yeah, I heard some college drop out confirmed her claims and he claimed that he is qualified to do such studies.
Spend your money on things proven to work such as Sambucol and not products made up by who knows what kind of teacher. It is tempting for me to whip up a few ingredients and then try selling it as a winner. Customer Rating: Summary: Better taste, works great Comment: Much better taste than the orange flavor. I have been using this stuff off and on for almost a year now, and have not really gotten sick at all. With a new baby and two other kids in the house all getting colds and what not, that is really something.
The price is about one third what the stores here charge, the only problem is that Amazon no longer will ship grocery items to Alaska, so I can not get any more... Customer Rating: Summary: Very effective, but over-packaged Comment: I cannot say enough about this product! If I use it aggressively when I've either been around sick people or feel something coming on, I've stayed well. I also find one tablet is a good energy lift for afternoon slumps.
The only complaint I have is the packaging. I wish the creator of this product would be more mindful of the environment -- especially since she's a school teacher and garbage pollutes the earth for children. The tubes are not recyclable in many areas of the country and the lids aren't recyclable anywhere.
And, each tube contain only 10 tablets. I'd like the company to make larger tubes AND offer refills. (If Necco can come in wax paper wrappers, these thick tablets can too.) NOTE: Yes, I've written to the company about this.
