Better Than Bouillon



Recommended Posts

Hi all,

I am going for surgery next week 9/13/06, and not looking forward to Clear liquids for 10 days, so I was excited to hear about this bouillon that was so good and high in Protein, like 32gm. It does come in some interesting flavors, but I don't see the protein. I just bought the beef and it says 1gm, so, am I missing something? I'm looking for the person who posted about this who might can fill me in. I love this forum and all the info. I've gotten.

Heading for bandland. Down 8lb on preop diet. Excited. Leaving tomorrow for TJ.

Thanks for any info.

I'd like to revive this thread. I also went shopping for this product. Last night I stood in the aisle in my local supermarket checking the labels of all four varieties of BTB, beef, chicken, mushroom, and vegetable. Not one of them has over 1gm of Protein per serving.

Can anyone out there tell us what is the product that has all the Protein?

i remember that post too and check out the BTB jars.

Guess the poster made a mistake. Label states the amt. of Protein.

I was hoping that perhaps she was just mistaken with the name. Hopefully someone out there knows of another bouillon that is high in Protein. I thank the poster above me for posting about unjury chicken flavor. Would anyone know if there is a mushroom or vegetable bouillon out there with good protein?

I use the Unjury Protein powders and you can sprinkle them in the broths that you normally buy if you want to do it that way. 30 grams of protein is how much I shook in and that way you get a bunch at a time. It comes in unflavored, choc. van. straw. or kinds. Good luck.

I too am looking for the Better than Bouillon that is high in Protein. The only jars I saw at my Wal-Mart had 1gram.

There is no Better Than Boullion that is higher in Protein. All of the products have 1 gram or less (that I have found). I have been able to find the chicken, beef, vegetable, turkey, lobster, mushroom and ham. I have not seen the clam, chili, organics, nor the vegan ones.

Here's the link to the BTB site where you can order it, it is a very good base despite the lack of Protein as hoped:

Yah I ordered Better Than Boullion off a website cause of whoever had said it had so much Protein. I got three kinds too. I was not happy when I got it and it had barely any. But on the plus side...it tastes great! :)

Try Amazon - they seem to have them all (from other sites).

What you have to watch with Better than Boullion is that some of them list their Protein in milligrams (mg). Our protein intake is measured by grams. So I think part of the confusion is the jar is saying 32mg, which only equals .032g of protein. 1 milligram = 0.001 grams Just FYI, hopes this helps.

I'm glad they have so many flavors.. I have beef & chicken bouillion cubes in my house all the time for cooking, and when I heard someone mention vegetable flavor, I was looking for it this past weekend. All our store carries is beef & chicken bouillion and vegetable broth in a can. I like powder..

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
