I agree that chicken broth helps with minor illnesses like colds and flu. I read somewhere that there may be some natural properties of chicken broth that help, but personally, for me, it's the warmth and the childhood memories of chicken broth that help. Swanson's is okay to use if you're in a hurry, but it's FULL of sodium, is VERY expensive, and isn't even close to as good as real, homemade chicken stock. Try it: you'll like it! You can freeze it in small containers, even ice cube trays; then pop the frozen broth/stock out, bag in plastic, and keep in the freezer.
