During the liquid diet phase of the bariatric process, you’ll either be allowed full liquids (like milk, protein shakes, etc) or be requested to stick to clear liquids like broths and liquids that are essentially see through.
I found that canned/packaged broths were very high sodium and since I have high blood pressure, I needed an inexpensive substitute that I could make in batches and enjoy without worrying about raising my blood pressure and creating more issues.
but if you do not have a problem with your blood pressure – feel free to use a packaged broth and doctor it up with some extra flavor by following the recipes below.
Each of the recipes include vegetables such as carrots, celery, onion, but you can also venture out and add in items like fennel, green onion, cilantro, and even raid your cabinets for different spices other than the ones listed.
