When you’re all achy and stuffy with a cold, take your mom’s advice—sip some soothing hot chicken soup! A recent online report indicates that chicken soup may help battle a cold in multiple ways:
- Sipping the soup helps you stay hydrated.
- Inhaling the steam helps you breathe better by loosening congestion.
- And researchers have found that—in a laboratory environment—the soup has anti-inflammatory properties.
So when you’re all stopped up, don’t get your feathers ruffled! Soothe the soreness that a cold can cause… with chicken soup.
