Herbal supplement maker Airborne has announced a proposal to settle a $23.3 million class-action lawsuit for 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.”
Airborne denies any wrong doing but has agreed to try and settle the suit.
