Airborne / AirShield / Air Armor

I first heard about Airborne supplements when I traveled to Las Vegas last year. The person sitting next to me said she takes them whenever she flies. Since then, it seems to have exploded in popularity. I originally thought that they were designed for flying, but I guess they are made to help the immune system at any time.

Prior to flying to California this past Friday, I bought the CVS brand version called AirShield. Its has a pretty good taste, and I still feel healthy, but I can't say if it is thanks to the supplements.

They are pricey, too. I had a coupon and wanted to try it out, so I went for it. I'm not sure if I'll try it again though. The alcohol based disinfectant gel may also be helpful to defend against germs when traveling, and I think its much cheaper.

UPDATE: I found "Air Armor" for sale at $3.99 at Trader Joe's today:

I think I like the taste of AirArmor better.

I just recently returned from Alaska where everyone is getting the Flu, and I took Air Armor and didn't even get sick!
It has some of the herbal antiviral's as the chinese Yin Ciao
+ Larix and V cit + all the other stuff in there.
It is BETTER Than Airborne b/c it has Larix in there, Which is known in herbal circles as "super Echinacea"
Now I just went to TJ's to find it and she said they are not going to carry it???? I sure hope not b/c it is better than the original!
