What to eat before surgery to supplement nutrition

If the patient’s usual nutritional condition is okay, there is no need for special nutritional enhancement before surgery, and a normal diet is sufficient. Especially for patients who need to fast during surgery, if they eat too much greasy food before surgery, it may aggravate the burden of the stomach and intestines. Patients before surgery can properly eat beef, pork, soy products, dairy products which are rich in protein and can supplement the essential amino acids needed by the body. In addition, eat more green vegetables and fresh fruits, which can replenish the vitamins and trace elements needed by the human body, enhance the immunity of the body, and promote early recovery from the disease.
