Getting surgery soon?! Here’s something most people aren’t told.
Your lymphatic system clears swelling, inflammation, and waste from tissues after surgery.
When the body is dealing with high sugar intake, refined carbs, and ultra-processed foods, it can increase systemic inflammation and metabolic stress — meaning your lymphatic system has more work to do.
Before surgery, focus on giving your body the best healing environment:
• Whole/Fresh foods
• Adequate protein
• Hydration (electrolytes + magnesium)
• Fewer processed foods and sugars
Your lymphatics will already be working overtime after surgery — supporting them beforehand can help your recovery process! Why not give yourself a boost?!
** Always follow your surgeons instructions **
