Supplements before and after surgery

Surgery has a major impact on your body. Even though it's done with the best of intentions and in a clean environment, your body needs to put out extra effort to mend from even minor surgery. While you're recuperating, you're more vulnerable than usual to:

wound infections,
chest infections,
skin breakdown,
urinary tract infections, and
other kinds of infections.

Providing the body with the nutrients it needs is vital both before and after surgery.

1. Green Cell therapy is high in B vitamins which help the body deal with stress... and surgery is a stressful situation.

It contains wheat grass, spinach, kale and other powerful green vegetables which help the body rebuild the blood, and many surgeries are associated with blood loss.

Contains Chlorella: Japanese studies have found Chlorella Growth Factor (CGF) to be especially effective in speeding up cell growth, a major factor in the natural repair of wounds. Various other studies reveal CGF helps heal ulcers and promote bone and muscle growth. When taken internally, it also acts as an immune-booster.


Taking this supplement prior to surgery to prepare the body for this stressful time (especially if you are already anemic) would be a great idea.

Wheat Grass Juice, Barley Grass Juice etc. are used for multiple healing, alkalizing and nutritive properties. Low temperature dried juices of green leafy vegetables and grasses are easy to digest and assimilate and deliver alkalinizing minerals and vitamins to the body at a cellular level.

People are also prone to constipation after surgery- this supplement contains lactobacillus and digestive enzymes which help with digestion. This product also contains digestive enzymes, which fight inflammation, fibrosis (scar tissue), and viruses; modulate the immune system; and cleanse the blood. 

People are prone to anemia after surgery. The greens in this formula promote red blood cell health.



2. Cherry Goji Berry (Go Qi Zi, Chinese Wolfberry, Lycium Barbarum), a caretenoid-rich berry with complete protein, essential fatty acids, and mineral density.
Used for millennia in Chinese Medicine as a super tonic, a food that benefits many systems of the body. Rich in unique susqueturpenoids, which powerfully boost immunity, also rich in xeaxanthin, which targets vision. Two of the antioxidants found in cherries, anthocyanin 1 and 2, function like aspirin blocking COX-1 and COX-2 enzymes. Conceivably, eating cherries could relieve the pain of arthritis and gout, and clinical studies have shown just that.

Here you will find the supplement that combines the two superfruits goji and cherry for post-surgical support.








3. While you are at home getting well, consider a parasite cleanse.

Many surgical patients receive antibiotics, which can make a person susceptible to yeast overgrowth.

Octocleanse is an advanced multi- dimensional formula containing herbal and nutritional components. There can be over 100 different types of parasites worms living in human bodies. Some are microscopic in size while others can be seen quite easily. These common organisms can be found everywhere in our environment, in the air we breathe, in the water we drink, or in the food we eat. It has been estimated that 85% of the North American adult population has at least one form of parasite. And some of those parasites can make you sick. The benefits of cleansing the body of parasites and worms include purifying of the tissues, healed organs and glands (where parasites and worms dwell); improved and enhanced peristalsis (bowel movements); more energy, weight release (loss/reduction); improved skin condition, improvement in body odor; better absorption of nutrients (which parasites and worms rob the body of), and an overall sense of cleanliness and purity. Those seeking treatment for a specific disease should consult a qualified integrative physician prior to using herbal products if possible.

This product also contains digestive enzymes, which fight inflammation, fibrosis (scar tissue), and viruses; modulate the immune system; and cleanse the blood. 
This product contains cascara, a gentle laxative, and constipation is often a problem post surgery.









You will likely have limited activity after your surgery, and that coupled with narcotics produces a situation that invites constipation.

In addition to its value for treating chronic constipation, psyllium can be useful in treating diarrhea.
In one study, symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome improved with psyllium administration.
Diarrhea following gallbladder surgery has also been successfully treated with psyllium seed.
Psyllium preparations can reduce pain and bleeding from hemorrhoids.
Psyllium seed has also been used to reduce high levels of cholesterol and triglycerides.
Psyllium seed is also reported to slow the absorption of dietary sugar. This may be beneficial in diabetes, although it is a subtle effect.,

Buckthorn is an herbal medicine of "last resort" to treat constipation, or in circumstances where the stool needs to be softened, like hemorrhoids or during recovery from rectal surgery. It is a diuretic and was used as a blood purifier. Buckthorn is also used to treat gallstones and intestinal parasites.

All of these ingredients are contained in Acai Ultimate







Phototherapy can also help wounds heal quickly. Various phototherapy devices use infrared LED lights to bathe the wound in healing light. The cellular DNA responds by speeding up the repair process.
