Can people with sports injuries eat plums?
Disease description:
I've strained my muscles from exercise these past few days and have been resting at home. My husband brought some plums back today. I'd like to ask, is it okay to eat plums with a sports injury?

Generally, it's acceptable. The main injury involved in the above symptoms is soft tissue damage. Recovery generally requires protein supplementation, so one should consume high-protein foods. Fat intake should be reduced because decreased physical activity can lead to fat accumulation and obesity. Additionally, blood lipid levels may also rise. Moreover, foods rich in trace elements and energy, such as flour-based products and vegetables, should constitute the primary part of the diet.
