Did You Know that Sugar Speeds Wound Healing?


Decades ago, Surgeon Richard A. Knutson (MD), published his experience using this old-fashioned approach to wound care in the Southern Medical Journal (Nov. 1981). His experience with more than 5,000 patients  convinced him it was useful for wound healing.
