All I want is a nice bowl of soup

I do not know of anything that is "better" per say. But any soup with lots of vegetables would be good since they have antioxidants. Rice is said to be very good for you too especially when you are not feeling well. Maybe a nice chicken rice soup would work!

Sorry to hear your not feeling well now. I like a soup with lots of noodles, so sometimes I make double noodle soup. People usually say chicken noodle, but I'm more likely to have my homemade tomato soup now. Homemade soups always make me feel better faster.

Awww, hope you feel better soon. Actually, it doesn't really matter what soup you eat, it's the steam that makes you feel better. It helps open up the nostrils and clear the airways..not so much because it's chicken soup. It can be beef soup, tomato soup, split pea soup...doesn't matter..it's the steam. It's sort of like having a humidifier right under your nose, which is something that helps too. So, eat your favorite soup and drink your favorite tea..the cold will still go through its normal course, but you'll feel a little better because of the steam.

A nice bowl of chicken noodle soup will help you even just the broth.

Well, it's true that chicken soup always known to helps with colds, it's because of the chicken essence in it, a study have tried it with vegetables soups minus chicken and it's said not as good as if the soup contain chicken. So I think it's better to have chicken soup. You can try ginger as well. You can boil the ginger and add honey in it, it's warm and helpful with cold as well. Or you can try to drink lemon and honey to help to soothe your throat and nose.

Chicken noodle is my second favorite flu season soup; my very favorite is lentil soup (brown or yellow). It should be very liquid, with a good broth (chicken or ham stock), and about a tablespoon of hot sauce. I can't express how much I love hot sauce - I even take spoonfulls of it when I start feeling under the weather. But the acidity of hot sauce in lentils does something heavenly. Oh, finely chopped onions and garlic or garlic powder are super in it, too.

I also like vegetable soups very much. I think it is good to take vegetable soups and vegetable soups are also good for health.

hi xdrst my son always swore by tomato soup for his colds although chicken noodle reallydoes work. but hey any hot s oup that you like will help I love cheddar cheese soup when I have a coldeven vegetable soup woujld be good for a cold also beef noodle soup as AI think its the heat of the soup that helps loosen up the phlem too.
