Airborne Debunked

This winter it seemed like everyone was taking Airborne, an alka-seltzer style dietary health supplement that's supposed to boost your immune system. Even my wife, who's usually extremely leery of medication, tried them out a few times based on recommendations from her father.

Personally, I had my doubts, and it looks like my suspicions were right: the makers of Airborne just settled a class-action lawsuit for false advertising. The most interesting part? As part of their settlement they are offering a refund to anyone who has ever bought their product.
