Chicken broth

[bb00024 21]

Does anyone think it is an issue that the chicken broth from my broth portion of my pre-op diet is from won-ton Soup from my favorite Chinese restaurant? My pre-op diet is for a 14-day period and my surgery is scheduled for Sept 16th.

I go to this particular restaurant a lot and they send me home with broth only, so I am not tempted to eat the noodles or try to eat around noodles and they cook without MSG.

Thoughts???

Watch the salt, my diet was low sodium chicken broth.< /p>

The broth in Won Ton Soup is very salty and high in sodium. I would recommend not eating it.

I agree it's salty, but most Soups r. Have it once or twice if you really enjoy it but drink tons of water... Check w/ your doc to see what they think . Best Wishes.

Wonton and pho broth were both on the list of things I could have on liquids stage and preop. Yeah they are high in sodium, but unless you have blood pressure issues it should be fine. This is a relatively short period of time, and you'll go to normal foods eventually and leave broth behind.
