Surgery (Phase Two/1-14 Days Post-Surgery)
Nutritional Support Protocol
Lifestyle Recommendations:
1. Practice good sleep habits and get between 8-9 hours of sleep a night.
2. Ask your doctor which medications should and should not be taken after surgery.
3. Do not exercise without permission from your physician.
4. Avoid or reduce stress and extra obligations.
Dietary Recommendations:
1. Avoid all high sugar foods and also avoid foods where sugar is listed as one of the first three ingredients, because sugar suppresses the immune system. Replace sugar with the polyol sugar xylitol.
2. It is important to consume adequate amounts of antioxidants which can be obtained daily through 5-9 servings of vegetables/fruit. If you are unable to get-in the recommended servings of vegetables/ fruit, you can add 1-2 tablespoons of PaleoGreens and PaleoReds in purified water daily.
3. Balance intake of fish (contains omega 3's which thin the blood) and red meat (contains arachidonic acid which acts in an opposite manner).
4. Drink at least 64 ounces of filtered, bottled or non-chlorinated water every day.
5. Avoid or limit caffeine, alcohol and other potentially neurotoxic compounds like aspartame and MSG.
6. In case of GI surgery, ease fiber back into your diet slowly but consistently.
