How You Can Prevent Tissue Injuries

By Tyron Thompson


Soft tissue injury is just what the name implies : injury to any of the softer tissues of the body. Such wounds can occur in the skin, muscles, tendons and ligaments. They're commonly caused by overuse and impact.

These type of wounds aren't unusual in athletes, but can happen to any person and are sometimes spotted after a tedious day of gardening, doing work around the house, and doing repeated heavy lifting in the workplace.

While a great preventative measure against soft tissue damage is stretching before exorbitant exercise and focusing on the body's alert signals, what number of us actually stretch before gardening or clearing out the garage? Even well trained sportsmen are notorious for not stretching properly. Then we feel the agony after it is too late.

Unfortunately, soft tissue wounds can take a long time to heal, often weeks, months or perhaps years dependent on the extremity. Treating the injury fast and properly is critical to helping the body in the process of recovery.

What are the leading indications of soft tissue damage?

The severity and nature of soft tissue injury symptoms will vary depending on the cause and location. Aside from the clear pain you'll feel, other local symptoms can include :

-inflammation in the concerned area

-redness

-muscle seizures

-muscle weakness

-increase and fall in discomfort depending on use and rest of area affected

How Does Whey Protein Support the Recovery from a Soft Tissue Injury?

In simple language proteins like those in whey are made up of amino acids. These amino acids help your body add muscle after an exercise session. They also get delivered to the muscle fibres and enhance the recovery process post-injury.

Undenatured whey protein, a byproduct of cheese production, has the highest known levels of branched chain amino acids of any natural food source. It's these elevated levels that give whey protein its reputation for being so effective at muscle tissue repair [*T]. In particular, the amino acids glutamine and leucine help to reduce soft tissue damage.

Briefly if you have suffered a soft tissue injury and you wish to speed up the recovery process, give your body the support it needs and take a high quality whey protein. In fact , while we may not understand completely the complex healing processes going on within the body, pain is our warning signal that something has gone wrong and the body is in major healing mode.

Any time the body is getting over an injury, it requires huge amounts of energy to try the recovery process and get you well again. And that needs good nutritive support including good protein. Your food is your fuel. So make sure it's premium grade.
