Preparing for Surgery: In a recent study below they "rehabilitated" patients prior to a specific kind of surgery with favorable results
My thoughts: I believe that before surgery we should prepare by exercising (aerobic exercise) to increase oxygenation, sleeping at least 8 hours a night, and improving our nutrition (eliminate alcohol, processed foods, high sugar content foods and drinks) and getting a dental cleaning. All this is when possible and in consultation with your doctor.
