Yes, chicken soup really does relieve cold symptoms. Any warm liquid would help loosen mucus, but chicken soup seems to help relieve the inflammation as well.

Take all the benefits of chicken and increase them by making soup. Unlike when you boil vegetables in water, and throw the nutrient rich water away – when you make soup, you keep all those nutrients.

Boiling animal bones also releases compounds that help your body make collagen, which is great news for your skin!

You can use chicken soup proactively too. If you feel like you’re coming down with something, load up on vitamin C rich foods and supplements, drink some green tea – and eat some chicken soup.

Do I have to say get enough sleep?

OK fine, I’ll say it – Get enough sleep!
