flexagonYesterday I was heavily into "think I'm getting a cold, although it hasn't gotten me yet" territory. I did Zicam a couple of times, and then tried Airborne for the first time in the evening... woke up this morning well-rested and not feeling virus-ridden at all. Go Airborne!
Its packaging also has an interesting pledge on it. A lot of products are proud of remaining static ("just like Grandpa used to make it in the North Woods", that style of advertising), so reading this surprised me: WE PLEDGE to our customers to continually upgrade the AIRBORNE formula as improved technology avails itself, thereby offering the finest, most effective health formula possible.
That's fascinating and brave -- maybe not a favorite with folks who are really sensitive to small changes in the formulation of medicine, true, but in good accordance with the way I want to live my life. Circumstances may change and my own preferences and judgement may change... it makes sense to pledge to not become too static, to continually build some things up and let others go in order to offer the finest, most effective![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

Date: 2009-03-21 02:10 pm (UTC)I never noticed anything bad, and I'd rather have goo in my nose than have that zinc taste in my mouth, but honestly... I might not have noticed a reduction in ability to smell. That's something I'll try to pay attention to, next time.
