Wound healing nutrition refers to the dietary supplementation that supports the process of restoration after any kind of injury, surgery, or any wound on body parts. For this wound healing, nutrition plays an important role in the complex physiological process. Wound healing consists of different physiological processes depending on the type, size, and depth of the wound.

This process is summarised into four overlapping stages coagulation, inflammation, migration-proliferation, and remodeling. Various key nutrients in the form of micro and macronutrients help to fasten this process to heal the whole wound in a particular period.

Recently the sales of target products have increased due to growing cases of traumatic injuries caused due to accidents, open surgeries, and the population suffering from diabetics.

The risk of developing and the rate of healing a wound such as surgical wounds, pressure ulcers, and skin tears is impacted negatively by the malnutrition of the individual. So the primary goal for wound prevention and treatment is addressing malnutrition with clinical best practices by increased intake of micro and macronutrients.

Key Industry Highlights

Personalised tailored Nutrition for individual wound healing

The type of wound and the rate of healing are different for different individuals, depending upon the wound type, size, depth, genetic profile, lifestyle, and health status. So, single nutrition designed for all is not adequate to heal the wound immediately.

For this, personalized nutrition plans are tailored by the healthcare workers considering the patient’s health conditions, nutritional deficiencies, and other related factors. For example, a patient suffering from diabetics with a chronic wound may require different nutrition for wound healing than that of the compared with a healthy individual suffering from the same chronic wound.

This personalized tailored nutrition includes the right balance of micro and macronutrients such as vitamins, minerals, and proteins. These vitamins and minerals help to improve immunity and cellular repair whereas the protein plays a role in tissue repair and collagen formation.

Development of Collagen-based nutritional supplements for wound healing

Collagen is the most abundant protein in the human body, which is an important component of the extracellular matrix that provides structural support to tissues. During any type of wound healing, collagen production is important for the formation of new tissue for the closure of the wound and repair.

As the demand for effective wound care nutrition increases, companies such as Abbott, focus on the development of collagen-based wound healing nutritional supplements to accelerate tissue repair. Research also demonstrated that collagen supplementation significantly improves the healing of wounds by improving the activity of fibroblasts. Also, the consumption of vitamin C supports the production of collagen in the body naturally.

Development of ready-to-drink powder mixes or syrups for wound healing

Due to a busy lifestyle, patients want convenient, effective, and accessible nutritional solutions to support the wound healing process. This increasing demand by the consumers is taken care of by manufacturing companies such as Abbott Nutrition develops and sells products in powdered mixes that can easily prepared into a drink by adding water as per the required amount.

This product was developed under the brand name of Juven Therapeutic Nutrition Drink Mix is contains different ingredients such as Amino acids, protein, and different vitamins and minerals and comes in different flavors which help to increase the rate of the healing process.

This trend is in more supports to the consumer preferences for the ease of on-to-go nutritional supplements for wound care to patients and healthcare providers. Brand Cubitan developed by Nutricia is also a ready-to-drink nutritional supplement.

Increasing prevalence of chronic diseases such as Diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, etc.

According to the international diabetes federation (IDF), around 10.5% of the adult population is suffering from diabetes. This disease often leads to complications such as diabetic foot ulcers if the patient is suffering from neuropathy.

Due to high sugar levels in the blood, it damages the nerves and blood vessels, making it difficult to heal the wound. If this kind of wound in diabetic patients is not managed properly could lead to amputation. Due to this reason, it is essential to get external nutrition to heal the wound in the meantime.

Global science-based company specializing in Nutrition, Health & Sustainable Living DSM-Firmenich has developed the product portfolio, especially for wound healing in patients suffering from foot ulcers.
