Chicken soup helps clear congestion in the respiratory tract and unblocks the nose which means better air flow. It also soothes a sore throat. If you have a very bad case of cough, chicken soup can come in handy as it has cysteine which helps reduce the thickness of mucus. So the next time you feel you are coming down with a cold, have a bowl of chicken soup. You can add a few chopped veggies to make it more nutritious.
