Which type of food or drinks etc. helps reduce swelling and promote healing of swelling?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Whole foods: Whole food nutrition is probably the best. Fresh fruits and vegetables have been shown to promote muscle healing and recovery. Systemic inflammation is also reduced with eating these foods. Avoid highly processed foods.
