Chicken soup or Zinc, which fights colds better?

Who is right: Grandma or Science?

Well, according to a recent article in Health Magazine, Dr. Prasad at Wayne State University, has done research which shows that you will catch fewer colds by taking 45 milligrams of "elelmental zinc". He goes further to say that if you feel a cold coming, you can get over it in half the time by taking zinc acetate lozenges every 3 -4hours.

The website, http://www.coldcure.com/ talks about this even more...

Bad news for Chicken soup, but, good news is ..no one has looked at wonton or hot and spicy yet.
