Broth Question - Liquid Stage



Recommended Posts

Okay, so I had broth at the hospital. It was chicken and I tasted 1 tsp full and was like YUK.

I came home from hospital (had surgery 5 days ago) and took a bite of beef broth on day 3. It tasted so dang good (salty heaven), that I would not eat it at all. I was afraid it must have been the wrong thing. I bought the beef bouliion granuales and hubby mixed it for 1 cup of Soup. I don't want to mess up eatings.

As of now, I am drinking Water, apple juice (love apple juice) and also a Jello a day. Not hungry so that is not the problem.

However, my question is what kind of boullion is okay for this part of diet?

Have the beef broth, especially if you like it. It is much harder to get any calories and liquid in if you don't like the taste. The worst thing the sodium will do is help you retain Water, which, given that we have a tendency to dehydrate might not be such a bad thing.

Boullion cubes or granules are a clear liquid are allowed after surgery. Like the previous poster said it is a little high in sodium but not an issue unless your doctor says it is. Go for the gusto! Knorr brand chicken granules are awesome~

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
