What can I do to prepare for a mommy makeover? I have begun taking a multi-vitamin and vitamin C per doc's orders. What else can I do to optimize healing? I am currently on Medifast but will stop one month prior to surgery? What should my pre-op nutrition look like? What should my post-op nutrition look like? I use Jay Robb Natural Whey protein drinks.
I've read a lot about taking multi-vitamins (without vitamin E), Arnica Montana, and Bromelain pre and post-op. I normally take a multi-vitmain, vitamin C, calicium + vitamin D, magnesium, iron, and fish oil. I'm down to just my calcium and vitamin C to avoid vitamin E and other supplements that were on my list of "do not take 2 weeks prior to surgery." Are Arnica Montana and Bromelain necessary or even safe? I'm worried they may trigger migraines (which I have a history of)or be unsafe.
Hi, I am having a mommy makeover (TT, BA and lift) on December 3rd. My PS had asked me to stop taking certain meds and vitamins 14 days prior to surgery. I just realized my multi-vitamin has 80 mg of green tea extract. How long is green tea in your system and would stopping 9 days prior to surgery be ok or cause for alarm? Thanks in advance for your response!
