No Time For Colds--ever use it?

I decided to try No Time For Colds yesterday. The box says I get my money back if I don’t feel noticably better within 24 hours, so I figure I have nothing to lose.

Unfortunately, the French soldiers will be taunting my child when he gets older

but we’ll cross that bridge when we come to it. My favorite color is blue.

Anyway, back on track, have any of you tried this stuff before? It says it was popular in Europe before it came over to the states. (Insert your own musical group joke here.) Did it work for you, or are you waiting on your refund check?

I’ve never tried it, but I think Cecil did a column on the inconclusiveness of zinc’s effectiveness. As for elderberry, Elton John’s throat polyps were blamed in part on elderberry wine. My favorite color is brown.

Bah! I fart in their general direction. This stuff sucks.

Let’s see if they at least hold up their end of the deal as far as “or your money back goes.”

Hello, NyQuil, my old friend. Can you ever forgive me?

I bet getting your money back is more difficult than buying the product was.

Note that the active ingredients are homeopathic. That makes it quite unlikely that it contains any zinc gluconate and Sambucus nigra at all.

Can someone familiar with homeopathetic medicine tell me how much a “1X” dilution of zinc gluconate and Sambucus Nigra is? That seems to be the whole of their active ingredient list.

The lozenges tasted surpisingly good. That’s about the best I can say for the product. As for the rest…pfft, spend the extra money on something tried and true.
