Every time you walk, dance, settle into a chair, or hug your friend, you?re using your bones and joints. Otherwise, we wouldn?t be able to stand, walk, run, or even sit. The average adult has around 206 bones which meet at joints and form the frame work of human body.
You need your Joints and Bone to carry on vital activities:
Minerals are necessary for proper composition of bone, blood and the maintenance of normal cell function. We need the major and minor minerals ? calcium, phosphorus, potassium, sodium, chloride, magnesium, sulfur etc. The minor or trace, minerals include iron, iodine, zinc, chromium, selenium, copper, molybdenum, manganese etc.
Because plants incorporate minerals from the soil into their own tissues, fruits and vegetables are excellent sources for many minerals.
But there is one supplement that is inexpensive and good for overall health, including the joints. It is omega 3 fatty acids, found abundantly in walnuts, soybean oil and cold water fish like tuna and salmon. The best sources are flax seed and fish oils and supplements can be easily found at drug stores and most supermarkets. \
The omega 3 fatty acids are well-known for their anti-inflammatory properties. They stimulate production of certain chemicals that control inflammation in joints, blood and tissues.
Several studies have proved that fish oil is definitely effective for improvement in morning stiffness and joint tenderness, when taken regularly. Best of all, they are effective for both osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.
All studies point to the fact that consuming flax seed or fish oil on a regular basis is just what arthritis patients need to cut down on the medications with all the nasty side effects.
And it?s not just us, even cats get relief form osteoarthritis with fish oil supplements, according to a Netherlands-based study.
You need your Joints and Bone to carry on vital activities:
- To protect internal organs of the body.
- Bones, skeletal muscles, tendons, ligaments and joints function together to a variety of movements.
- The marrow, located within the medullary cavity of long bones and interstices of cancellous bone, produces blood cells.
