There is nothing wrong with drinking chicken soup, but the elderly, especially the sick elderly, should not blindly drink chicken soup for tonic. Chicken soup contains a certain amount of fat. Patients with hyperlipidemia drink more chicken soup, which will further increase blood cholesterol and cause diseases such as arteriosclerosis. Hypertension patients who often drink chicken soup will not only cause arteriosclerosis, but also keep their blood pressure rising, which is difficult to come down. In addition, chicken soup can obviously stimulate the secretion of gastric acid, which will aggravate the condition of patients with gastric ulcer. Patients with poor renal function should not drink more chicken soup, because chicken soup will increase the burden on the kidneys.

Therefore, the elderly should not blindly drink the old hen soup for tonic, preferably no more than 200ml each time and no more than twice a week. People with high cholesterol, high blood pressure, poor renal function, hyperacidity and biliary tract diseases should not be careless.
