I don’t know why. In my nearly 20 years of work, from the beginning to the present, I have heard many clinicians recommend bone soup to postoperative patients, patients with cerebral hemorrhage, and even ICU patients-that is Soup boiled or boiled with ordinary pork bones. Bone soup is not bad, but it is definitely not suitable for nutritional support of postoperative patients or critically ill patients.

　　Bone soup is mainly composed of fat, a small amount of amino acids, vitamins and minerals. Ordinary people drink it or use it to cook dishes to enhance the taste, but there is nothing wrong with it. But the most important thing for postoperative or critically ill patients is sufficient energy and protein to correct tissue protein breakdown and body composition loss caused by negative nitrogen balance. The protein in bone soup is seldom, not only inconsistent with milk, not even soy milk. The energy contained in the bone soup mainly comes from fat, and it is mostly saturated fatty acid, which is not easy to digest. It is very unsuitable for postoperative or critically ill patients with weak gastrointestinal tract. One patient I recently encountered was suffering from dyspeptic diarrhea due to drinking bone soup, which prevented the enteral nutrition support from proceeding properly. Use the fat in bone soup to provide energy, it is better to order rice porridge. As for the vitamins and minerals in the bone soup, it is not enough for patients who cannot eat normally.

　　All in all, I can’t find any reason to drink bone soup for postoperative or critically ill patients. This is obviously a blind commander. I did not expect that the blind commander can be passed down from generation to generation.
