In this video, we’re going to talk about the best diet for bone healing.

When you break a bone, you get a blood clot around the broken part of the bone. With the blood that rushes in, you have all sorts of things that help with the healing process, and help the bone become solid again. 

Macrophages are very important in this process. If anything slows down the macrophages, the bone will take longer and longer to heal. High levels of sugar in the blood can actually slow these macrophages down. 

During the healing process, stem cells also become activated. Stem cells can morph into any cells that you need. It can turn into bone, fibrous tissue, or collagen. Initially, the stem cells may form almost like a splint to help hold things together, but then it will turn into whatever you need. 

Then, you have the osteoblasts that kick in. These are cells that build up the bone. New blood vessels will start to form, and any damaged nerves will start to grow back as well. You will also have osteoclasts that clean things up and remodel the bone. 

To know what you need to eat to help heal a bone, we need to look at the raw materials that make up bone. 

These raw materials are:

• 1/3 Collagen and non-collagen 
• 1/3 Water
• 1/3 Minerals 

The worst diet to help heal bones would be a high-carbohydrate, refined sugar, low-nutrient diet. 

What to do that may help with the bone healing process:

• Consume a diet that is low-carb and full of nutrient-dense foods, as in healthy keto
• Fasting
• Vitamin E 
• Zinc 
• Vitamin C
• Vitamin D3
• Vitamin K2
• Bone broth 
• Bone 
• Trace minerals
