Excellent read, as usual. I would like to learn more about rapid/quicker recovery from surgery. The DS (my husband -- his name “the DS” is a longer story 😉) is having surgery on Thursday.

Pre load with some nutrients like methyl B complex, C, and trace minerals but avoid vitamin E for bleeding risk.

Post recovery, an iron chelator like artemisinin or olive leaf extract or pomegranate peel and vitamin higher dose by having more frequently

Extra thiamin beyond a B complex, also like an am and pm. Cannabinoids if legal. That is a short list. Butyrate support, niacin.

Very welcome. Plenty of protein and organic bone broth for collagen maybe if not vegetarian. I haven't written exclusively on a post op healing diet, so haven't looked into it much.

My husband is nervous but it’s only a minor hip surgery (fusing the right SI joint) and he’s in his 40s.

We’re definitely NOT vegetarians. Thank you so much for the information.
