Airborne 1000mg Vitamin C with Zinc, SUGAR FREE Effervescent Tablets, Immune Support Supplement with Powerful Antioxidants Vitamins A C & E - 30 Fizzy Drink Tablets, Zesty Orange Flavor

We use Airborne any time we get a cold as soon as we feel symptoms coming on.

An update, March 2019, on this last order. My review below stands - the product is great as far as I can tell plus I just love the orange-juicy flavor and the zing. But this seller sent a different configuration of the product than I ordered and the expiration date on 36 tablets is just 6 months away. If making a store purchase I simply would pass these by. I think there is some wiggle room with expiration dates but I am highly unlikely to finish using this batch before they are quite old. It appears the seller (sold by __, fulfilled by Amazon) is practicing stock rotation to the detriment of the customer. The longer I live, the more acutely I realize how little many people care about infecting everyone around them with their viral illnesses. As the years have gone by, I have become more likely to suffer for weeks with a cold that younger people may throw off in days. So it has become increasingly important to avoid infection. I think many people dont realize that direct contact, for example hands when youve been sneezing or wiping your nose, is the most potent way to pass a virus. Droplets of airborne spray would be next. Viral illnesses are very contagious during the incubation stage, so people sometimes dont even know they are passing colds. But many people dont care or even delight in passing colds, the thought (?) being they got it somewhere and may as well make others miserable. So what to do? Im aware when Ive been exposed so the minute I feel punk, I dissolve one of these tablets - then down the hatch. I sort of dont believe it myself, but Airborne does seem to bolster my immune system. My medically-trained friends like to poo-poo this but meanwhile their wives and I - who use Airborne - continue to have fewer colds. I like the flavor and the effervescence, too.

Like dropping a serving wafer into a water bottle for grabbing a fast vitamin !easy to drink !

Theres a bit of a funky aftertaste with Airborne, but it isnt too bad. I get sick all the time. A friend of mine recommended Airborne to help boost my immune system and prevent me from getting sick as often. Since Ive started using Airborne, I havent been getting sick as frequently as I usually do. Obviously I cant promise that the Airborne is working. There could be a variety of non-Airborne related reasons for my current period of health. That being said, Im going to keep using Airborne. If its working even the slightest amount, that is worth it for me!

Great taste. But a little expensive.

I use Airborne pretty regularly, any time my allergies have me feeling run down, or I know I may have been exposed to some kind of illness. I cant say it has ever stopped me from getting sick, not that I would know if it had, but it does give me a small boost when I am just feeling run down, and I do believe it helps speed up my recovery when I do get sick. I think the taste is great when its cold, so its never a drag to drink.

I have a standing order for Airborne Original (which contains L-lysine). I sometimes receive wrong version (no L-lysine) & have to replace. Anyone else have this annoying problem? There didnt used to be two versions! Ive used AIRBORNE ORIGINAL with L-lysine (which is proven immune support) for many years along with zinc lozenges and almost never actually get a cold. At the first sign of trouble, I double down with Airborne and zinc and it seems to ward it off. Also it helps reduce mucous during allergy season, for me anyway!

Lived up to everything

I have been taking Airborne now every day for months. I take it because I get colds or the flu easily. I believe, by my own experience, that this has helped me to build up my immunity. Whether or not that is true, it has built up my confidence. I started taking it because I would get sick after flying. The last couple of flights, some of them international and long flights, I have stayed healthy. I was on a cruise with people who got a terrible cold. I was one of the few that did not get the cold. So, for me its probably a life saver, especially in this time of Coronavirus. I also wear a mask and use lots of hand sanitizer on all of my flights or when I think Ill come into contact with someone who has the flu or a bad cold.

My family uses it every day, when they feel a little down and poorly they use more. Its a lot cheaper than the name brand.
