Nutritional Strategies for Wound Healing

• Ensure you have three balanced meals daily, along with snacks, as the body requires additional calories during the healing process.
• Maintain adequate hydration by drinking plenty of water, as hydration is crucial for the healing process.
• Include foods from every food group in your daily meals, as each group plays an active role in wound healing.

Tips for Boosting Energy and Protein Intake:

• Opt for whole milk over partly skimmed milk and add cream to soups, coffee, tea, or other beverages.
• Enhance the flavor of meats and fish with sauces.
• Include cheese, butter, margarine, or sauces with your vegetables.
• Add croutons, crackers, eggs, or cheese to soups or salads.
• Supplement your meals with powdered milk in oatmeal, scrambled eggs, mashed potatoes, soups, cream-based sauces, and desserts.
• Choose nutritious snacks like dried fruits, almonds, yogurt with fruits and nuts, muffins, cheese, peanut butter sandwiches, and beverages such as milk or fruit/vegetable juice instead of coffee or tea.

Always be mindful of your diet as it significantly influences your health!
