Wellness Tip: high protein diets help the body rebuild damaged muscles and soft tissues

San Antonio Chiropractor Promotes Nutrition Counseling for Weight Management and Pain Relief: "Dr. Phillips is also a nutritionist who is trained to provide nutrition counseling services to patients. Dr. Phillips nutrition counseling focuses on whole body wellness as well as injury-specific conditions.
'I make specific dietary recommendations to patients who are struggling with chronic pain, such as back pain, neck pain and headaches,' said Dr. Phillips. 'For example, antioxidants combat free radicals that lead to inflammation and can worsen chronic musculoskeletal pain. For patients recovering from an injury, high protein diets help the body rebuild damaged muscles and soft tissues. The right balance of nutrients and supplements really makes a difference when it comes to an individual's recovery.'"
