Clear Soups...

MrsSpinks

Hi there! Does anyone know what constitutes 'clear soup'? I understand it would be no noodles etc, but can you have tomato soup from a tin (or any soup with no solid bits in)? I am having a medical procedure and can only have clear fluids from 2pm 2 DAYS BEFORE (arrggghhh I am going to die)!!! Any info anyone can share on the clear soup business would me much appreciated!

Thanks

I think "clear soup" usually refers to broth - ie chicken, beef, or vegetable broth. Not tomato soup. I could be wrong though! Just call your dr.'s office up if you're at all worried.

brothy soups would be my guess, i think tomato soup is out.

That's right. It's usually stock broth of chicken, beef, fish or vegetables

Clear soup is broth (vegetable, chicken, beef, turkey) that you can see through and has nothing else added to it.

A clear diet, is just that if you cant see through it you cant have it. Broths, water, sprite or 7 up and jello. Thats about it!

I promise you won't die from two days of a clear diet. If you find yourself getting totally famished try this: 2 tablespoons of Grade *B* organic maple syrup, the juice of half of a lemon, and cayenne pepper to taste (I like about 1/4 teaspoon, but others say 1/8th) in 8 oz water. You can drink it hot or cold. I had nothing but this for 10 days while fasting, and I drank as much as I wanted, whenever I felt hungry. The maple syrup helps to keep the blood sugar from crashing, and the warming cayenne pepper made me feel full far longer than I expected to.

This is for a medical procedure. Better follow DR's orders. I'm pretty sure maple syrup and cayenne pepper aren't clear liquids.
