10 GRAMS OF FAT

0 GRAMS TRANS FAT?

  • What does this mean?
  • Less than 0.5 grams trans fat per serving
  • Contains partially hydrogenated vegetable oils
  • After several servings it can add up
  • Less than two grams of trans fat is recommended

Trans fats contribute to clogged arteries. Clogged arteries are a sign of heart disease; they increase your risk of both heart attack and stroke. Here's how it works: Trans fats raise low-density lipoprotein (LDL) or "bad" cholesterol levels. This contributes to the buildup of fatty plaque in arteries.

AIRBORNE

DOES IT REALLY HELP SUPPORT YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM?

WHATS IS AIRBORNE?

  • A supplement Invented by a school teacher
  • Supposedly boosts your immunity system
  • vitamins and minerals plus a blend of natural herbs
  • Vitamin C, E, and A, Zinc, Selenium, Manganese, Magnesium

"Airborne said that a double-blind, placebo-controlled study was conducted with “care and professionalism” by a company specializing in clinical trial management, GNG Pharmaceutical Services.
GNG is actually a two-man operation started up just to do the Airborne study. There was no clinic, no scientists and no doctors. The man who ran things said he had lots of clinical trial experience. He added that he had a degree from Indiana University, but the school says he never graduated."

It has also been shown that the amount of vitamin A found in two Airborne tablets reaches the recommended limit of a person's daily intake. The box instructs users, however, to take 3 tablets a day, which would exceed their safe amount of vitamin A.
