My grandmother made the best chicken soup and you know what?  Whenever I was sick she would bring it over and I would eat a few bowls worth.  To this day I still don’t know what’s in it, but it worked. I know that many researchers have done studies on the possible food combinations found in chicken soup and it seems believable that my gandmother and the many others who use chicken soup to cure the cold hhave made something that is a formidable contender to replace penecilin.
