The Ultimate Protein Bar - As a Fruit
Here is the setup: Elves, through magic, have the ability to cause regeneration of limbs/healing of wounds through natural cellular processes. Regenerating a limb, while now possible, obviously takes a massive amount of energy. Either that, or a really, really long time.
How can I get the necessary energy packed into a fruit, which is at the most, the size of a large mango (the smaller the better - more convenient to carry around)? I'm basically trying to have a fruit that the elves can eat while healing, which will speed up the healing process.
What I need is composition. Would it be based in carbohydrates, like a potato (which I realize is not a fruit), or somehow high in protein (maybe from a carnivorous plant)? Which one would pack more punch for healing? Would the contents have any effect on the skin and/or meat of the fruit? If so, in what way? What about the plant itself?
