Prolonged illnessDuring any period of illness, or recuperation from any surgical procedure that may, or may not have included general anesthetic, it must be kept in mind that the body has been placed under stress, and that extra care must be taken to counteract the effects.
Enough sleep, sufficient water intake, a well controlled diet, with a possible addition of a food supplement, or injectable vitamin supplementation, as well as a rigorous skincare regime is required to prevent your skin from showing more than necessary signs of aging. Antioxidants in the diet, or through supplements, may also be helpful to rid your body of any free radical build-up as well as assisting in detoxifying your body. People sometimes take the use of general anesthetic too lightly, but it must be remembered that this alone places a huge burden on your system, and everything must be done after the use of a general anesthetic to help your body rid itself of the residue. During periods of illness a person also should take note of their circulatory needs if they are bed-bound. The diet may also be naturally supplemented with foods, such as prunes, to prevent constipation or sluggish intestines since elimination problems can only hinder recovery.
