Benefits Of Recovery™ For Post Surgical Recovery
- Improves hydration and cell function, by increasing production of long chain glycosaminoglycan (GAG's) and decreases in shorter chain GAG's which would result in hydration of tissue and increase of membrane function.
- Increases membrane receptivity to growth factors, cell membrane sensitization to growth factors (somatomedins, insulin, etc) necessary for cell repair, tissue repair, maintenance, protection and communication.
- Slows or halts sclerosing of tissue, slows deposition of heavily glycosylated, compact and inflexible collagen types V and VI.
- Enhances ability to heal, decreases granulomatous second intention healing involving stromal elements (i.e. development of scar tissue) resulting in loss of cell/tissue function.
- Improves cell and tissue function which results in further ability to repair damage, leading to decreased tendency to bruise, decreases inflammation, spasm, joint stiffness, digestive abnormalities and respiratory distress.
- Recovery™ is an all-natural food-based non-drug supplement formulated to improve the quality of life, and is an excellent alternative pain relief formula.
- May be safely combined with other medications or taken on its own.
- Since Recovery™ works to modify your body's responses, it may take up to six weeks for you to experience this alternative pain relief formula. Most people notice benefits within a month.

- Nutricol – mechanism of action
What Is Trauma?
Trauma occurs when there is any damage to the structure of the cell or cells, as a result of surgery, injury or training. When there is damaged or irritation of the cells, a breakdown in the membranes occurs. As a result, specific compounds enclosed within the cell walls are dispensed into the cellular matrix. There are substances such as prostaglandins and histamine, which produce inflammation, spasms and pain.
The body’s response to trauma is inflammation, which is characterized by swelling, redness, heat and pain. When trauma affects multiple cells, the result will be additional inflammation and an increase in pain.
When there is extensive tissue damaged caused by wounds or surgery, there will be a formation of scar tissue resulting in a decrease of tissue function.
What Slows The Rehabilitation Process?
- Infection that causes poor healing, excessive swelling, and cell/tissue degeneration.
- Prolonged or severe inflammation that impairs tissue regeneration.
- Reduced oxygen supply, circulation, or tissue drainage resulting in inadequate tissue repair.
- Excessive scar tissue formation resulting in weakened, less flexible tissue.
- Existing conditions such as hypothyroidism, diabetes, and Cushing's syndrome that have a negative impact on healing.
What Speeds Or Enhances The Healing Process?
- Adequate rest and recovery time.
- The use of a brace or splint to immobilize the surgical area.
- Increasing water consumption to keep tissues hydrated.
- Consuming healthy nutrients.
- The use of antibiotics to help avoid infections.
Understanding Substances Recommended Following Surgery Or Trauma
Acetaminophen
- Also known as Tylenol®, Exdol®, Panadol®, etc.
- Acetaminophen provides only mild to moderate pain relief.
- Does not contain any anti-inflammatory benefits.
- A prescription is not required for acetaminophen.
- Does not interfere with blood clotting.
- Your doctor may prescribe Tylenol with codeine following surgery when pain may be severe due to extensive surgical trauma.
Recovery Contains Nutricol®:
- A potent bioflavonoid formula consisting of EGCG, theaflavin, resveratrol and proanthocyanidins derived from grape and tea.
- These anti-catabolic compounds are known to halt tissue damage and inflammation.
- All-natural Nutricol® decreases trauma from surgery, injury chronic lameness, and over-training.
- Increases the cell's resistance to damage by improving its ability to repair the damage.

Post Surgical Healing And Recovery
The speed and quality of post surgical healing depends on a numerous factors. You can improve your rate of healing and repair by following some of these tips:
- Get adequate rest and keep the surgical area immobilized, which will help in your recovery process. Your doctor or health care provider may recommend the use of a brace or splint.
- Stay hydrated. Drinking plenty of fluids is essential in keeping the tissues hydrated. Try to drink at least eight glasses of water a day. Avoid beverages containing caffeine, which are diuretics, as they can deplete the body of necessary fluids.
- Sleep whenever possible. The body repairs itself most effectively during sleep. Often, many individuals try to do too much after surgery, thus compromising the speed of their recovery.
- Eat healthy foods. Eating nutritious foods after surgery has significant benefits as it provides the necessary components for complete body repair. Protein contains amino acids, which will help rebuild your tissues quickly. You may want to add protein-rich shakes to your diet. They are available from your local supermarket or pharmacy.
- Keep positive. A positive outlook can help reduce depression (often associated with surgery) and may help you recover quicker.
- Take Recovery with Nutricol™ , which is a food-based non-drug supplement, which can accelerate tissue repair.
Reducing Your Risk Of Injury
After your surgery, you will be informed of the time frame in which you must keep the surgery site immobilized. After that period of time, you should try to prevent any risk of injury. You can strengthen the area by introducing stretching and exercises that will reduce putting strain on the connective tissues and muscles.
- Pace your activities. Make sure you don’t over exert yourself when doing prolonged or heavy work and remember to have frequent rests periods. This will give weakened muscles adequate recovery time.
- Stay calm and relaxed. It is important to minimize the tension surrounding the muscles at the site of the trauma, since this will help reduce the pain. There are various relaxation techniques that will help keep you positive and give you a feeling of control over your pain level. You may want to listen to relaxing music, read a good book or practice deep breathing exercises.
- Try to avoid large doses of medications such as ASA as they can accelerate tissue and joint cartilage breakdown.
The Importance Of Exercise
Regular exercise increases the strength of your bones, muscles, and other tissues, and can help in weight management. Exercise increases flexibility and helps reduce pain levels.
Weight-bearing exercise such as walking, hiking, jogging, tennis, stair climbing and weight training all have significant benefits on the body. Weight bearing exercise promotes strength and increases the mass of your muscles and bones.
If you are still experiencing post surgical pain, you may be limited to what exercises you can perform. Swimming is an excellent option as it minimizes the impact on your body and will be less painful to perform.
Your healthcare provider can recommend a specific exercise program, which will be beneficial for you. Your doctor may refer you to a physical therapist that will develop a therapeutic program designed specifically for your post surgical recovery.
Nutricol® - Mechanism of Action
Nutricol® has significant fat and water soluble antioxidant properties, which produce anti-inflammatory and anti-catabolic effects:
- Stabilizes collagen aldimine reducible cross-links, thus reinforcing the elasticity and strength of connective tissues like the tendons, ligaments, cartilage, bone, synovium, fascia, the dermis of the skin and the blood vessel walls.
- Neutralizes catholic enzymes and ROS decreasing the damaging affects on both cellular and extra-cellular function and structures, thus enhancing membranes receptivity to growth factors such as somatomedins, thyroxin insulin, which is required for cell maintenance and anabolic repair.
- Decreases excess production of catabolic substances such as elastase, collagenase, xanthine oxidase, hyaluronidase, NOS and TNF which are released from microbial, immune and damaged cells, which results in damage to epithelial and connective tissue, causing joint pain, capillary fragility, inflammation and additional soft-tissue damage.
- Inhibits the release of inflammatory supporters such as serine proteases, histamine, leukotrienes, prostaglandins by non-competitively discouraging the release of inflammatory enzymes such as phosphodiesterase, lipoxygenase and cyclo-oxygenase.
- Enhances the protective epithelial mucosal surface integrity (respiratory, digestive, and genitourinary tract).
