Nutritionist notes: Unsweetened applesauce means that it should not have any added sugars, although it will have sugar because it is naturally found in apples. Please check the ingredients list and make sure it has no added sugars or other sweeteners. Although dairy can be an important source of protein early in your recovery, it is also the most common food intolerance developed after surgery. Therefore, it is recommended to add dairy to your diet gradually to see how your body reacts to it first.
