When you come down with a cold, you don’t always make the best dietary decisions. Instead of resorting to canned soups that are filled with chemical preservatives that can worsen cold symptoms, provide the body with nutrient-dense foods that can help you reduce the duration of the cold. Slurp this soup down and you may reduce the amount of time that you have the sniffles.
