Can You Reverse The Signs Of Aging In Your Joints?
We understand that poor joint and bone health can have painful consequences. You may worry about your future activity and comfort levels.
Thankfully, there are ways you can improve the status of your joints and bones through consistent lifestyle choices.
TIPS TO IMPROVE JOINT & BONE HEALTH
Resistance Training
Stretching
Stretching helps lubricate the joints, therefore reducing pain and improving joint flexibility. Stretching should also be incorporated in your exercise routine to prevent injury.
Yoga is a great option for stretching and contributing to your overall health. We recommend visiting a studio where you can learn various poses and routines from a yogi. One review not only saw a reduction in pain for those with arthritis, but an improvement in mental health as well.
Calcium
Calcium is a common nutrient associated with bone strength, but for good reason. As you get older, the amount of calcium in your bones may be insufficient to maintain their strength. Calcium supplements can help reverse signs of aging in your bones by improving bone density and contributing to heart, muscle and nerve health.
Taking Vitamin K can help the efficacy of calcium by helping it bind to your bone mineral matrix. This helps improve bone density and reduce the risk of fractures and osteoporosis. Vitamin K has the added benefit of helping to control atherosclerosis.
Reduce Inflammation
Reducing Inflammation is an essential part of joint health and pain relief. You can reduce inflammation by maintaining a healthy diet that avoids sugars and processed foods.
Dr. Meredith Warner recommends the Mediterranean Diet to most of her patients for this reason. It focuses on nutrient-dense, whole foods like fruit, vegetables, legumes, fish or seafood, nuts and healthy fats like extra-virgin olive oil.
You may lean toward NSAIDs when you’re experiencing pain, but we’d like to show you that there are natural ways to reduce inflammation without the negative side effects that NSAIDs are well-known to cause.
NATURAL SUPPLEMENTS TO REDUCE JOINT PAIN
Heart Healthy & Anti-Inflammatory
Omega-3 is an anti-inflammatory that also promotes brain and mood health. It can help reduce the stiffness and swelling in your joints. This is a powerful tool that we believe you should use to reduce pain and improve a sense of flexibility.
Natural Pain Relief
Our Joint Health Multi features turmeric, ginger, piperine and PEA for powerful anti-inflammatory benefits. It’s a unique combination that provides natural pain relief alongside antioxidants that encourage cell health.
Anti-Inflammatory
Tart Cherry Extract is another antioxidant supplement that reduces pain and inflammation. Its anti-inflammatory benefits rival that of NSAIDs, working in a more gentle manner. It also promotes muscle recovery, so if you’re implementing a new resistance training routine, this supplement can benefit you in both ways.
