Hyaluronic acid can help with pain relief, MSM (methylsulfonylmethane) or omega 3.

An additional plus is a sufficient intake of of vitamin C, vitamin D or calcium.

How to use joint nutrition?

Joint supplements are suitable for active athletes, seniors who have experienced a lifetime of joint stress, and also sporting children, contributing to the proper development of the musculoskeletal system. Regarding the use of joint nutrition for children, it's advisable to first consult with a pediatrician. A special group then consists of individuals with a genetic predisposition to degenerative joint disease, known as osteoarthritis.

Joint nutrition primarily has a preventative nature and, in the case of a health problem, serves more as complementary treatment. For observing positive results, joint nutrition needs to be taken over the long term, regardless of the time of day the supplement is consumed.

How to prevent joint pain?

In addition to taking preventive dietary supplements for joints, it is also advisable to:

  • not to overload the joints - watch out for overweight, which contributes most to overloading, and technically incorrect lifting of heavy weights;
  • regular sports - walking, cycling or swimming do not put too much strain on the joints and can help strengthen them;
  • keep joints warm.

Hereditary diseases can also have a negative effect on joint health, poor posture or inappropriate footwear.
