I Have To Ask People Not To Sue Me Too Often



Not overly comforted by the fact that the CEO of the company that makes Cold-Eeze is named Karkus


Jeremy is, of course, referring to ProPhase Labs and their CEO Ted Karkus, who I would remind Jeremy, has a large team of expensive lawyers on retainer.  


So we all know Cold-Eeze...they make cough drops with zinc as one of the active ingredients.  The idea being that zinc causes cold and flu viruses to be unable to attach themselves to receptors in the body, effectively shortening the duration of illnesses.  I'm told they work very well, but have very little first-hand knowledge.  

The CEO of the company that makes these things is named Karkus...which is, of course, a homonym of "carcass," which seems to be the exact thing you're trying to avoid becoming by taking medicine.  Strangely enough, I don't find this very encouraging.
