Top Product: Airborne
Figure [1]: The Airborne Medicine

Michael And yet another top product: In the USA, there is this hysteria about colds. Everyone avoids anyone who sneezes or blows their nose, and anyone who has a cold naturally cancels all appointments immediately.

In the meantime, the hysteria has also caught up with me, and ever since I read somewhere that you usually catch colds by touching something bacteria-laden and then rubbing your eyes, I am always extremely careful about where my hands are.

But sometimes you just have to sit next to a sniffling passenger on a plane, or the air conditioning in the office distributes bacteria evenly across all the cubicles. For these situations, there is a new herbal medicine called "Airborne," which you take when you enter one of these contaminated areas or already feel the first signs of a cold in your throat.

"Airborne" was developed as a home remedy by a teacher who eventually got tired of constantly catching colds because there were always one or more sick students in class. And, the remedy works surprisingly well. Recently, I felt a terrible scratch in my throat, and the next day the cold broke out. But thanks to promptly taking "Airborne," it was quickly alleviated and was over after just two days. Great product! Available for about five dollars at Trader Joe's.
