1/6 - Immediately after the shock or the cut, it is the inflammatory reaction. Blood and lymph appear on the surface of the skin. Then come macrophages (white blood cells), which will help eliminate bacterial fragments and dead cells.

Nutrition pool provide you with health tips that helps you achieve your specific goals. We don’t measure our success by work that is simply cute or clever. Instead, we create and apply proven, effective and ethical proved methods that produce quantifiable results.

2/6 - Fibroblasts, present in the dermis, produce collagen and elastin fibers which will fill the wound. New blood vessels are formed. It heals gently: it is budding.

3/6 - The keratinocytes (cells of the epidermis) cover the dermal bud, the wound closes. A scar will form, but it will not mature for a year. It is epithelialization.

4/6 - Emphasizing proteins is essential for the synthesis of collagen fibers, a major component of the skin. Favoring those of animal origin makes it easier to cover all the amino acid needs.

5/6 - The production of collagen is also favored by vitamin C which, along with vitamin D, also reduces the risk of infection. Zinc also has the property of participating in the immune response by preventing the proliferation of bacteria.

6/6 - Finally, lipids, mainly omega 3 fatty acids, participate in the synthesis of cell membranes and improve their elasticity. They are therefore preferred, by focusing on rapeseed and walnut oils, fatty fish (sardines, salmon, mackerel, etc.), oleaginous fruits and lamb's lettuce.

To heal quickly and well, our skin needs certain specific nutrients. Advice from nutritionist ABC to accelerate healing through food.

THE KIWI

The green kiwi provides 85 mg of vitamin C per 100 g, the yellow ... 163 mg! This vitamin is involved in the synthesis of collagen, a constituent of the skin. We adopt them in the morning for breakfast, and we also include in our menus other champions of vitamin C contents: strawberries, peppers, parsley...

LENTILS

Cooked lentils provide 3.3 mg of iron per 100 g. This facilitates coagulation and the synthesis of collagen. To better assimilate it, add vitamin C during the same meal: lemon juice, diced bell pepper, chopped parsley ... If you like them, calf's liver and black pudding remain undisputed champions of iron intake. .

THE CHICKEN

Chicken meat is high in zinc (and even more so the gray meat of the thigh, compared to the white meat of the fillets), a factor in many of the reactions necessary for cell formation. So we offer ourselves a chicken thigh (skinless to avoid excess fat) but also fish or seafood to fill up with zinc.

WATERCRESS AND SPINACH

They contain vitamin K which promotes blood clotting, as well as the good condition of connective tissues in general. So we think of watercress salads, seasoned with rapeseed oil and lemon juice or spinach that can be prepared in a dozen ways. Green cabbage and broccoli are also among the plants with the best vitamin K supply.

RAPESEED OIL

Rapeseed oil is rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids, the deficiency of which delays the formation of cell membranes and healing (in addition to promoting dryness of the skin). It is adopted to prepare the vinaigrette with lemon juice or apple cider vinegar, but it is not cooked: polyunsaturated fatty acids do not resist high temperatures.

AND ABOVE ALL, WE EAT ENOUGH

The healing is a process that consumes a lot of energy. Question of going on a diet when you come out of surgery and want to heal well (we do not speak of a break but a larger wound). Sufficient energy intake is needed: in animals, studies have shown that in one week, a reduction of almost half of food intake leads to abnormalities in the formation of collagen fibers, and that after 4 months, this it was all collagen production that was reduced. This is also why repeated diets end up damaging the skin!
