No sodium broths in Trader Joe's or Whole Foods?

[odontask 13]

Can anyone recommend a good tasting brand? My 1st day of my liquid diet is today along with my pre op and it's too late for Amazon.

One thing I will say is that I am looking forward to not spending so much money on food. My office orders takeout every day (some days it is paid for). I work in an Italian neighborhood full of yummy restaurants. It is so hard to resist normally but the liquid diet will give me the push to say no. I've even asked the receptionist to leave me off the daily emails.

I have tried chicken bouillon envelopes mixed with hot Water. I also used low sodium butternut squash Soup from trader's joe and carrot ginger soup from trader's joe. The soup weren't tasty but you use unflavored Protein Powder with it and it feels you up.

Wow those do sound tasty though. Thanks for your recommendation! I'll go tonight and look

Should make your own Bone Broth. It's very easy and heaps cheaper. ( bone broth where we live is $14 a litre )
And it's so much more tastier tbh

I love the lamb broth a whole foods. It isn't low sodium though.

A low carb diet is a diuretic, ketosis has a strong diuretic effect. You need sodium in your diet if you are on a low carb diet.

They have Bone Broth at Whole Foods, it is cheap and doesn't take 14 plus hours to make.

Make sure you read the label of every broth you buy, some have added sugar and a lot of them have carbs from flour thickeners.

Whole foods has a wider variety than trader joe's and that is where I purchased all my broths.

Thank you so much for your input. I have not even heard of Bone Broth until now

I do not like the taste of any of the Trader Joe's broths. YMMV

I just had my first broth of the pre-op diet and I am a little disgusted. So bland! I need to go check out Whole Foods. Don't think I can survive on bland, watery broth for a week.
