In a conversation I had with Alexis Nay from Metagenics, one of the main nutritional suppliers we work with, we discussed the 3 phases of care for people with inflammation and it was pretty eye opening, the things you can accomplish with supplementation. I’ll try to lay out how this system works.
First is initial intensive care. This is that phase we’re in when the injury is brand new or acute. It’s vitally important to improve your body’s natural inflammatory response. There’s a group of supplements called Acute Phase that will work to bring down those inflammatory components naturally, allowing your body to quickly heal.
Second is the Subacute and corrective phase. It lasts for about 6-8 weeks, this is when most of the healing happens.
Then you have the wellness and health development phase where we use targeted nutrition to help you achieve all your health goals.
