Surgery puts a lot of stress on the body🩸which is why nutrition is critical for pre and post surgical recovery
Here is Runners Edge recommendation for the best recovery:
1) Proteins and Amino Acids💪🏼
2) Collagen with Vitamin C
3) Omega-3 Fatty Acids
4) Creatine
5) Micronutrients such as Zinc, Magnesium, and Vitamin D
6) Curcumin
Supplements alone can’t help you recover which is why you need physical therapy as well. Keeping a consistent PT schedule, loading the tissue, working on range of motion all work together to make sure you keep moving years after surgery!
Note* these are ONLY recommendations. What you should take depends on factors such as the type of surgery, age, gender, medical history and more. Please talk to a physician or nutritionist to know exactly what you need**
