Surgery
Protocol
Adapted from Jonathan V. Wright, M.D.
Are you facing or have you recently had surgery?
The following supplement routine will promote quicker, stronger, and
less painful healing.
For 1 month before surgery, and 6
weeks afterwards, take:
|
Vitamin C,
1,000 mg twice daily |
Promotes healing of connective tissue. |
Zinc (picolinate),
30 mg once daily |
Recommended: Nature's Life™
brand, with 2 mg. copper per capsule. |
| Vitamin B12 and folic acid, as
directed |
Recommended:
Vitamin B12/Folate from Vital Nutrients |
Immediately before and after surgery, take:
Bromelain capsules -- Take 3, three times a day on empty stomach
for 2 days before and 10 days after surgery.
Bromelain lessens swelling and inflammation by
"digesting away" tissue debris. Studies show shorter healing
times. We suggest Thorne Research™ brand or equivalent.
As soon as possible after surgery, take:
| Arnica Montana, 30C |
4 pellets under the tongue every
1-3 hours. |
| Zinc, Vitamin B12, and folate |
All specifically stimulate growth
of DNA for formulation of new cells. |
|
Centella asiatica (Gotu Kola) -- 250 mg, 2
capsules twice daily |
Many research studies on healing after surgery
have shown that Gotu Kola shortens the healing time and
strengthens the healed tissue. |
| Multiple vitamin/mineral
supplement, 3 capsules twice daily |
Recommended:
BioEnhance from Life Enhancement |
