New York – People who have taken the herbal formula Airborne with hope of curing or fending off the common cold could get their money back, according to media reports Wednesday.
Airborne will pay over $23-million dollars to settle a class action lawsuit over false advertising.
“There’s no credible evidence that what’s in Airborne can prevent colds or protect you from a germy environment,” said CSPI Senior nutritionist David Schardt. “Airborne is basically on overpriced, run-of-the-mill vitamin pill that’s been cleverly, but deceptively, marketed.”
The creator of Airborne, grade 2 school teacher, Victoria Knight-McDowell, “studied the benefits herbal therapies used in Eastern Medicine,” beforereleasing her product.
The company does not admit to any wrong doing.
“Defendants deny any wrongdoing or illegal conduct,” the message says, “but have agreed to settle the litigation.”
A hearing to consider final approval of the settlement is scheduled for June 16.
