We are living in a world, where there is a lot of pain in the bones. Blame it on the lifestyle which is becoming sedentary with every passing minute. Knee pain is a particularly chronic condition which afflicts people across generations.
Joint pain is a very common problem today, not only just in elderly but also younger generation. There are a few ways, by which you can avert the pain in your joints. But, only if you follow the steps religiously.
1.Lose weight – Being on the higher side of the weight, ends up putting a lot of pressure on your knees, hips and feet. If you can lose weight, then half your problem is cured.
2.Say No To Soda – Soda or all types of aerated beverages contain phosphorous acid and other chemicals which rots the bones.
3.Start Exercising – You do not have to run a marathon, but exercising can help make your bones flexible and strong. Strength training is very important, even for women as it helps to reducing the bone loss. Its always a good idea, to get an instructor who can guide you with proper workouts for the issue. It can seem a little overwhelming at first, but it helps a lot.
You can also try swimming, or good old jogging. Physiotherapy, is also a good way to better your knee pain.
Supplements – Cartilage, acts as a natural cushion between the bones in a joint. Glucosamine and chondroitin are a part of the cartilage, which tend to reduce by age. So no brainer, that as you age the joints get a little squeakier, and makes the cartilage weak.
I would recommend, the supplement listed below:
Joint Expert Glucosamine Chondroitin with MSM, available on Amazon.
Price: 1000 INR for 120 capsules &
*Price may vary
Dosage:
2-4 capsules a day
5. Dietary Changes – Make your diet rich of food which contain omega 3 fatty acids like salmon, sardines etc. Also walnuts are a good source for the same.
Give yourself about thirty days, and then you can notice the following changes:
>Improvement in joint mobility
>Less pain
>Less squeaking in the joints
>And, even reduce the need of knew replacement surgery.
6. Increased Use Of Turmeric – Commonly used in Indian foods, it contains inflammatory properties. Besides, adding in your food, try adding a heaped teaspoon in milk, and drink it daily.
Details:
The body uses Glucosamine Sulfate, a natural compound, to stimulate cells to create one of the main building blocks of joint cartilage – proteoglycans.
Chondroitin sulfate attracts and holds large amounts of water to the cartilage-building proteoglycan molecules. Since cartilage has no blood supply, this fluid is necessary to nourish and lubricate joints.
MSM (methylsulfonylmethane, or dimethyl sulfone) is a sulfur-containing molecule found in various plants and some body tissues. It is a natural and efficient source of the sulfur that is used by many of the body’s structural molecules, including joint cartilage.
