This program is general wellness and educational information only. It is not medical advice and it does not replace the instructions of your surgeon, anesthesiologist, or care team.

Talk with your care team before starting any new exercise, nutrition, or supplement routine. Stop any activity that causes chest pain, severe shortness of breath, dizziness, or new or worsening pain, and contact your care team.

If you have a medical emergency, call 911. Your surgical team's instructions, including instructions about medications, supplements, and eating and drinking before surgery, always take priority over anything in this program.
