The Power of Protein
One health concern that doesn’t go away after bariatric surgery is the potential for malnutrition. The much smaller stomach capacity created with bariatric surgery is great for ensuring lower food intake, but the disadvantage is that with only small quantities of food, it can be difficult at times to get enough vitamins, minerals, and protein. Dehydration can be another concern. You can meet all of these needs with tasty, hydrating soups from Bari Life.
Long-term clinical studies show that bariatric surgery helps you lose weight and keep it off, along with boosting diabetes recovery, improving cardiovascular health, and lengthening your life. Complement the benefits of this surgery by adding healthy high-protein soup mixes to your diet. Depending on the flavor, Bari Life’s bariatric protein soups provide 15 to 16 grams of protein per serving, with only 60 to 100 calories, making it a perfect fit for your post-surgery diet. The high water content of the soups will help to keep you optimally hydrated. Most of the flavors also have significant amounts of vitamins and minerals, especially vitamin A, vitamin C, and calcium.
It’s time for some savory flavor!
Our soup mixes are a great solution for when you’re in a hurry or simply don’t feel like cooking and looking for Savory Options. The soups are prepared simply by mixing the dry soup with hot water, making it a portable meal or snack. Enjoy the soup as it is to meet your protein goals while staying hydrated. Or, add your own cooked chopped vegetables for extra flavor and nutrition.
After bariatric surgery, you have to eat smaller meals but this doesn’t mean they have to be any less enjoyable. Bari Life’s savory protein soups make a refreshing change from how sweet protein bars and protein shakes tend to be. Most flavors are gluten-free and soy-free options are also available, so everyone can enjoy.
