If you take Airborne to keep from getting sick...

if you buy that, you are planning on getting sick

Yes I see your point.

take your multi and lift heavy. good luck with your body building goals in 2011

Or... You can do what the studies actually show... Take 2500mg of vitamin C a day... Three 500mg in the morning and two for lunch and dinner. All of the other shit in the capsule above is great for your health, but does absolutely nothing to ward off a cold.

Vitamin C can be purchased at most drug stores for $3 for a month supply and you can find a coupon for $1 off online by searching Google for your favorite brand.

All you have to do when you get sick:
1. Drink a couple of bottles of robotussen
2. Sleep for 2-3 days waking to piss and drink more robo
3. Wake up all better

Try a vaccine to prevent sickness and antibiotics to stop an illness. If it's a virus don't do the antibiotics just fucking stay home and let your immune system do its job.

Are you a sales person for Merck or Glaxo Smith Kline? The entire point is to avoid their toxic viral concoctions if at all possible. I do still take antibiotics if I don't head of the illness fast enough but that is rare.

I take this because I think it offers live nutrition beyond what I consume daily, (and I consider myself to have a fairly healthy diet).

Other than that, I don't really believe supplements do much in healthy people with healthy diets.

Airborne is known to be fake and gay and does not work.

It just had a good marketing campaign.

I'm a sales person for good science and common sense. You really think a magical pill consisting of everyday crap will heal you? Even taking vitamin C in mega doses isn't proven to do much of anything, on the contrary new evidence suggests excessive vitamins can be harmful so yea, I'm a big fan of marketing bs like airborne

a flu with meds takes 7 days, without meds a week

Um, yes. Sorry you have not yet discovered that food heals.
We both agree that Airborne sucks

Daylight, exercise, a good night's sleep, low intake of alcohol and low intake of sugary drinks (though don't have Diet drinks with Aspartame instead, have water). Almost forgot to mention Bee Propolis and Zinc

Keep away from vaccines too, most people who receive the flu vaccine go down with the flu right away. Makes more money that way spreading the flu around

That is fucking stupid.

You guys are nuts. I take airbourne once in awhile and it helps. Any increase in health is just that. Why would it be bad for you? You can see the excess vitamin c leave your body so why do you need something stronger?

It is ok but sucrose has a high glycemic index. Airborne is the equivalent of eating a gummy bear vitamin but with more zinc and some Echinacea.

For sure, but it makes them a lot of money which is all they care about. The Pharms profit from a sick population

No I was saying you are stupid for thinking you should stay away from vaccines.
