Quick Answer
There is no magic drink or food that accelerates wound healing beyond what a normal balanced diet provides. Adequate protein (about 0.5 grams per pound of body weight daily), enough calories, vitamin C, zinc, and good hydration all support healing. The two things that most clearly slow healing are uncontrolled blood sugar and smoking. We can help with both as part of your wound follow-up care.
