Cuts and scratches are wounds, but the really troublesome ones are leg ulcers and bedsores: ruptures in the skin that go well beyond the common *wound’ Wound healing is a complex process, but it is simply the process of replacing injured tissue with new tissue produced by our body. The longer the wound exists, the greater the demand for more specific nutrients.

Protein is essential for body repair and maintenance, and is therefore a vital nutrient in ‘wound healing. The most important amino acid for collagen synthesis, which helps to increase the strength of the wound, is arginine. Arginine increases blood flow. allowing essential nutrients to be delivered efficiently. ‘And don't forget adequate hydration, at least 1g00mt a day.
