Does steak actually heal you

[MeltedLemonade]

I see people especially in cartoons put a whole steak onto their head when they get a bruise why do they do this does steak have some kind of healing property

[Fake]

Have you seen the prices for steaks recently!?

Just put some ice on it. It's cheaper.

[Hairy Hands Harry]

It's the cold. Meat is usually stored refrigerated. So it is like using an ice bag.

[LeviathanWon]

Yes. Spinach too.

If you eat it... the reason they put it on bruises is cause it's an ice pack... and not a lot of people stock ice packs in the freezer.

healing is stored in the steak

medkits are actually just full of steak and administer steak juice to you when used

[Heitor Villa-Lobos]

No, but a bag of peas (from US sitcoms) does.

yes, it's got electrolytes

If Skyrim ever taught me anything it's that it is good to carry like 20 pieces of Leg of Goat Roast and 136 cabbages just in case.

Don't forget the 50 cheese wheels.
Especially the 50th cheese wheel.

it is mostly a myth.
it is the cold (and not being hard like solid ice) thats doing most the job)
an gel-cepack however will do the job far superiour without the added infection risk.

there are some who say that enzymes in the steak will help... I doubt that.
while steaks do contain a lot of the enzymes that help restore from injury and build muscle faster than with other protain sources.. those you get when EATING it.. not putting it on your skin.
-> there do excist dermal cremes with enzymes and nutrients that will actually aid in dermal restoration.. not all skincare is fake.. but the real ones often are expensive.. still those enzymes.. and nutrients are not in steak.

That's the old wives' tale I remember as well.

I've personally never tried it. It's just better to eat the steak, as you said.

[AlienTestosterone]

After leg day it sure does.
