Chicken soup
It’s an easy-to-eat source of vitamins, minerals, calories and protein that are nutrients your body needs in larger quantities while you are sick. Chicken soup is also an incredible source of fluids and electrolytes, both of which are necessary for hydration if you’re making frequent trips to the bathroom or if you have a fever.
Broths
They are also an excellent source of hydration when you’re sick, being full of calories, minerals and vitamins that can help you feel better and this is especially important if you’re struggling to keep solid foods down. Broth has incredible natural decongesting benefits.
