Bone broth for Post Op



Recommended Posts

Ok so I'm 1 week post op and for the last 3 days tummy wasn't feeling well at all. Mummy recommended beef or lamb Bone Broth. And voalah! 15 minutes later I was really feeling much better.. In fact 1 hour later I was feeling hungry again and for the first time I was able to drink my Protein Shake whole. Just thought of sharing this.

The recipe I used is:-

- beef or lamb bones (mummy says they're better than chicken bones)

- 1 stick of carrot roughly chopped

- 1 whole head of garlic cut in half

- 1 big onion roughly chopped and don't bother to peel.

- 2 bay leaves

- few pepper corns

- lemon juice or apple cider vinegar

- some herbs of your choice (I just used the store bought mixed herbs)

- a pinch of salt

In a large pressure cooker brown the bones first then add the carrots, garlic and onions, add the remaining ingredients then add Water and close tightly. Let cook for around an hour. If not using a pressure cooker I guess it will take between 3-4 hours..

And enjoy the broth

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
