A client delivered a healthy infant through cesarean section. The midwife encourages the client to eat which food item to promote wound healing?

Banana
Wheat bread

Collagen is used in synthesis of skin, scar tissues and blood vessels. Bananas are high in potassium. Wheat bread is high in fiber, which lowers cholesterol and prevents constipation. Milk is high in calcium.
