What supplements, vitamins, and minerals should you take pre-surgery when having a tumor removed, that would promote healing?

Preparing your body for surgery can make an enormous difference in the recovery. One of the first things to do is make sure you stay well hydrated. After that adequate protein is essential for collagen and tissue repair… so along with healthy protein sources from food making whey protein smoothies can be a delicious way to add nutrients. Blending those smoothies with bananas and berries provides potassium and antioxidants. Purchasing a powdered multivitamin mineral with antioxidants to mix with the protein smoothie also adds vital nutrients. Below is an attached document with a recipe for a “Fruit smoothie with just a little veggie” to get you started.

If you don’t want to do the smoothies I recommend taking a free form amino acid supplement. Protein which contains the amino acids aids in collagen synthesis and wound healing. Vitamin C with bioflavonoids helps with tissue integrity and along with zinc and vitamin K can speed healing and recovery. A homeopathic remedy called arnica which helps with bruising and swelling is often recommended before and after surgery. Please check with your doctor to make sure he/she is okay with these supplements.

Eating a whole foods diet is the best for optimal nutrient value and health and I have attached a second document below explaining what whole foods mean.
