You aren't supposed to eat only chicken broth.. You could have just googled this man >Over the years, studies have shown that chicken soup is a natural decongestant. The chicken in the soup contains an amino acid called cysteine that breaks apart the mucus and has anti-inflammatory and anti-viral effects. Increasing hydration also helps to thin and clear mucus.

Most people aren't that hungry during cold or flu. Chicken soup provides protein, carbs, and electrolytes without making you feel like you ate a lot. The warm, steamy broth helps open nasal passages and has anti inflammatory properties that help sooth a sore throat.

Sometimes i eat nothing when I'm sick. So just chicken noodle soup wouldn't be that unusual.
