Homemade Chicken Bone Broth over prepackaged?



Recommended Posts

Hi all.

I just made a huge amount of pure chicken bone broth for after my surgery. I asked my Dr. if this would be OK for the clear liquid post op and he said yes. This broth is not "clear". It is cloudy, like most Bone Broth, and it has been strained. I did this thinking I would reap more nutritional benefits over the cubes or prepackaged stuff we call "chicken stock". (which if you read the ingredients, oh my)

I've frozen them into aluminum cupcake tins, so that my mom or husband can easily grab one when I need to have a liquid.

Any opinions on this?

Homemade all the way. We make big pots of stock whenever the bag of stock makings in the freezer gets full, and we pressure can it. There are about 10 quarts in the pantry right now.

Thank you, didn't know about the interpretation of the word "clear" :D , or exactly how "clear" a liquid was supposed to be.

It sound delicious.

For those of us who don't cook, my NUT also suggested organic bone broth is a better alternative to the more common stock found at grocery stores because it has more Protein.

Sounds great! My mom made me some and froze it into ice cube trays for easy storage. Only thing was, I hardly used it. Turns out I really don't like to drink chicken broth! Stuck with Water and Protein shakes for about 48 hours then on to well whizzed Soups, (I was allowed full liquids immediately post op). I did use those broth cubes to cook with later.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      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.
