The saying that you can’t eat chicken with a broken bone is not true. Folklore is often said to eat chicken after fracture, will lead to muscle atrophy, these claims are not based on science. Patients after fracture can eat chicken, because chicken is rich in protein, which is easier to be absorbed by the body. Patients with bone fracture need high protein, high calorie and adequate nutrition during recovery, and the nutrient and calorie content of chicken is very high, so eating chicken during recovery from bone fracture can provide nutrition. Patients after fracture are encouraged to eat more chicken, and also other calcium-rich foods, such as pork ribs, fish, etc., which can provide rich nutrients for the recovery of fracture and promote the recovery of fracture.
