Drinking Airborne

[Country Kids]

Does anyone know anything about Airborne.

I was drinking it while I was sick but wondering is it something you can drink every day or just when your sick?

Also, does it really work or just a hype thing?

I used it when I was in the schools, and all of my teacher friends swear by it. Walgreens has a generic version that's cheaper.

You can drink it several times a day. Basically, when you're going to be exposed to germs. You might consider using it from M-F.

It is just a bunch of vitamins in a drinkable form. I think(can't remember for certain) that it has zinc in it which coats the tongue and throat so that cold and virus bacteria won't grow and multiply. It's not going to hurt you I wouldn't think, lot's of vitamin C.

I remember that a few years ago they took it off the market and changed it's advertising because they were making claims of things it couldn't do or be proven to do. Changed the ads and back on the market.

It was developed by a teacher to help her ward off the typical illnesses that they are exposed to.

they changed it because of the multimillion dollar lawsuit made them......it does not cure the cold

Does it help prevent them?

I like airburne but I do feel like every time I take one I end up sick anyway.

I dont use the airborne, but I swear by a vitamin that has zinc in it. I usually just buy the kids gummy immune boost vitamins they are a mix of zinc, vitamin c and echenaica (sp?). I will pop a few at a time if I wake up in the morning with a stuffy nose, or I feel a little sore throat coming on and most of the time it goes away before turning into a full blown cold!

I personally have never had allergies, except for when stay in a hotel room if I sleep on their pillows i wake up and my eyes are itchy and my nose is stuffed. I have a few friends that have pretty dibilitating allergies, it looks just no fun at all. I refuse to take any part of it!

I love love love it!!! I have only used it daily. If the kiddos are sniffling or whatever- I"M DRINKING IT!

I don't care too much for the taste, so I drink it with a straw.

I also take a daily multi vit, I've often wondered if I can take both????? I usually skip the multi if I need the airborne.
