Complex and dynamic, wound healing is essential to bodily integrity. Wound healing must be efficient for infection prevention, scar reduction, and tissue function. The wound-healing process is complicated. However, this article emphasizes the importance of nutritional wellness. Health depends on nutrition, which affects every physiological activity, including wound recovery. The body needs vitamins, minerals, proteins, and antioxidants to restore damaged tissues and fight diseases. Poor nutrition may slow wound healing and cause problems. The incidence of wounds and the rising understanding of holistic patient care make this issue necessary. Malnutrition and poor diets are common in clinical settings, slowing recovery and raising healthcare expenses. Understanding the association between nutritional health and wound healing helps healthcare workers tailor treatments and enhance patient outcomes. The term paper will examine the complex relationship between nutritional health and wound healing in the literature. We will also discuss our study's methodology, results, and therapeutic implications. This study seeks to illuminate the complex relationship between nutrition and wound healing to improve patient care and healthcare choices.
