Knee Surgery Recovery

My Naturopath friend suggested to a partner that he take chia as prep for knee-replacement surgery.

He found the nurse aghast at his omega-3 levels being off the chart prior to surgery. His Dr's were amazed at his rate of healing...at least twice as fast as considered 'normal'

I believe he ingested 3 tbsp daily for a couple weeks ahead of the surgery; an extreme amount to be sure.
