A member asked:
What should i eat in order to promote my broken humerous to heal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Balanced diet: A balanced diet will promote your overall health. Make sure you have a calcium intake of 1000 mg day through food or supplements. Supplemental vitamin d (up to 2000 iu/day) may help if you like many have low vitamin d. Discuss with a dietitian to get personalized recommendations. Depending on how fracture happened you may want to consider asking your doctor about getting a bone density test.
