How can you keep your joints healthy as you age?
The joints rely upon movement to receive their nourishment, so safe exercise is a great way to keep them healthy. Supplementation with glucosamine and chondroitin, which are components of cartilage, can also provide the joints with nutritional support during aging. Fish or krill oil containing high amounts of EPA and DHA, Boswellia serrata, S-adenosylmethionine (SAMe), MSM, bromelain, curcumin, ginger, Chinese skullcap, white mulberry and cutch tree are other supplements that can help maintain joint health.

How does glucosamine help support joint health?
Glucosamine is a component of compounds called glycosaminoglycans and proteoglycans, which help support optimal cartilage health, providing it with flexibility and resilience. Research suggests that glucosamine may support healthy cartilage integrity by supporting the synthesis of cartilage structural components. Glucosamine also plays a role in maintaining joint lubrication.
