Chicken Soup

NBC News

Chicken soup is known by mothers and grandmothers alike to cure a flu, but it can also be an effective home remedy against bronchitis. One study out of the University of Nebraska actually found that chicken soup has anti-inflammatory effects, and showed how the soup inhibited movement of infection-fighting white blood cells — which are known to move around your body when you have a cold. Another study by the Mount Sinai Medical Center in Miami showed that chicken soup is more effective at moving mucus through your system compared to plain hot water. Fifteen people with clogged nasal passages were asked to drink either cold water, hot chicken soup, or hot water. It was found that those who had drank the soup had the systems with the least amount of mucus after the experiment.
