According to Quigley's press release last week,

The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has sustained The Quigley Corporation's advertising claims that Cold-Eeze can reduce the duration and severity of the symptoms of the common cold.

The same applies to Gum Tech's claim that Zicam reduces the duration of the symptoms of the common cold, except that Gum Tech can claim 75% reduction for Zicam while Quigley can only claim 42% reduction for Cold Eeze. I don't have to provide any evidence to prove anything to you. Gum Tech conducted two independent double-blind placebo-controlled clinical studies that prove Zicam works. The results of the study have been published in a reputable peer reviewed medical journal and your ranting and raving won't change anything.

Bye!
