The answer is NOT in a bowl of chicken soup. There is NOTHING SPECIAL about chicken for health. Why perpetuate this myth?
It's 'charming' and 'traditional' and 'warm' and gets people to look.

Mark said...: Chicken soup was used as clickbait. And I have yet to become desensitized to clickbait, it continues to annoy. And more importantly it often cheapens the effort to be helpful.

I’m all for refutation of bogus information, but I think my body is intuitively smarter than most cold & fever advice.; 2:13 PM
Jim Sande said...: I see what you're saying. When internet articles first started going with headlines that read - 'The Five Reasons blah blah blah' or 'Ten Reasons To Drink Tea' or 'Six Reasons Why Shoes Are Bad For You', when it all shifted to that way of writing, I found it to be very annoying, a head shaker. Now I just read it.; 5:15 PM
