Two things speed shoulder surgery recovery: sleep and nutrition. Proper positioning, sleep aids, and magnesium help you rest despite pain. Better nutrition measurably improves surgical outcomes, and the THRIVE Protocol provides a framework for it.
Here are the 2 secret weapons of getting through a shoulder surgery. Number 1, sleep. Sleep is your way to recover. Your body needs time to heal. It's really important to prioritize sleep. That can be difficult after shoulder surgery, so you got to use tools to help you sleep, such as sleeping aids in terms of position, and consider things like magnesium to help you get through. Number 2, nutrition. The data is clear across the board. I'm a big advocate of nutrition because it simply improves outcomes, and that's why I recommend things like the THRIVE Protocol.
