Western doctors say that you can eat chicken for a cold, because chicken has a lot of heat, but our motherland's medical science does not advocate eating chicken, because chicken in Chinese medicine is a hair product, which will aggravate the symptoms of a cold, so the cold is still to eat light, eat more fruits, drink more water, and have more rest, and the seriousness of the middles need to see a doctor.

In fact, many Western doctors are skeptical of this statement, they all know that the cold should be supplemented with energy in order to be more conducive to the recovery, but they are few to consider this issue, and rashly told the patient can eat chicken.

When a person has a cold, it is right to replenish enough energy, because it will be more conducive to the body to overcome the disease and restore health, but at this time, it should be replenished intravenously, and injected with a hangnail, and not the gastrointestinal tract to replenish. Because colds are usually accompanied by some Kata symptoms, such as nasal congestion, runny nose, pharyngitis, enlarged tonsils, etc. In fact, not only the upper respiratory tract, the gastrointestinal tract will be, manifested as some mucosal edema, just we can not see through the surface, which is why we have a cold and appetite is not good reason. At this time, if you eat some high-energy food, such as chicken and eggs, etc., the gastrointestinal function is already bad, but still have to digest more food, which makes it overwhelmed, but aggravate the burden of the gastrointestinal tract. And the rest of the large amount of food for the intestinal tract of some harmful bacteria to provide a large number of energy sources, a large number of bacteria will produce some of the complications of the cold, such as fever, vomiting, diarrhea and so on. That's why some kids who have a cold and drink a bowl of chicken soup will soon have a fever or cough that won't go away.

Maybe some people will argue why some people have no problem eating chicken when they have a cold? This is the problem of individual differences, the resistance of adults is better, the general cold eating meat are no problem, but the children are not the same, so experienced doctors tend to tell the parents, children have a cold to drink porridge do not eat, and adults are rarely so reminded, unless it is a serious cold.
