    Hi ! Imran , Very Healthy soup . Thank U . Sipping hot chicken soup helps break up congestion and clear up clogged nasal passages . Chicken contains an amino acid called cysteine a substance released when you make the soup . This amino acid is similar to the drug Acetylcysteine which is prescribed by doctors to patients with Brochitis and other respiratory problem . Home made Chicken soup with natural ingredients are healthy .
