From General Surgery to Perioperative Nutrition

Hello! I’m Dr. Tiffani Shelton, a general surgeon with a profound passion for improving patient outcomes through innovative and holistic approaches. Throughout my career in the surgical field, I’ve seen firsthand the critical role that perioperative nutrition plays in patient recovery and overall health. This experience has led me to shift my focus towards perioperative nutrition and the integration of cutting-edge technologies to enhance patient care.

The Shift to Perioperative Nutrition

Perioperative nutrition is an area of medicine that emphasizes the importance of nutritional status before, during, and after surgery. Adequate nutrition is essential for optimal recovery, reducing complications, and improving surgical outcomes. Recognizing this, I have dedicated myself to exploring and implementing nutritional strategies that can significantly benefit my patients.

Incorporating the Biophotonic Scanner

To further support my patients’ health, I have incorporated the biophotonic scanner into my practice. This advanced diagnostic tool provides a non-invasive method to measure antioxidant levels in the body. By assessing carotenoid levels in the skin, the biophotonic scanner offers immediate insights into an individual’s antioxidant status and therefore perioperative nutrition levels, which is crucial for combating oxidative stress and supporting overall health.

Recommending Pharmanex’s Medical Grade Pharmaceuticals

In addition to using the biophotonic scanner, I recommend Pharmanex’s medical-grade pharmaceuticals to all my perioperative patients. These high-quality supplements are designed and proven to boost antioxidant levels, helping to mitigate the risk of chronic diseases and cancer. The benefits include:

  • Enhanced Antioxidant Defense: Pharmanex’s products are scientifically formulated to neutralize free radicals, thereby reducing oxidative damage.
  • Improved Health Outcomes: By increasing antioxidant intake, patients can experience better health, fewer complications, and a lower risk of developing chronic conditions.
  • Support for Perioperative Care: Adequate antioxidant levels are especially important for surgical patients, as they aid in faster recovery and reduce the risk of postoperative complications.

Why Antioxidants Matter

A recent study conducted by Yale University has highlighted the direct correlation between carotenoid levels and the development of breast cancer. This groundbreaking research underscores the importance of maintaining high antioxidant levels to reduce cancer risk and support overall health. By integrating Pharmanex’s antioxidants into my patients’ care plans, I am able to offer them a proactive approach to wellness.

My Mission in Perioperative Nutrition

My mission is to leverage my expertise in surgery and nutrition to provide comprehensive care that not only addresses immediate surgical needs but also promotes long-term health. By focusing on preventative measures and utilizing advanced diagnostic tools, I aim to help my patients lead healthier, more fulfilling lives.
