There are few conditions that can hamper your day-to-day activities and make life unenjoyable than stiff, swollen, painful joints. Every movement brings with it pain. Simple things like opening a jar become monumental tests pain tolerance.

Joint inflammation, also known as arthritis, is the leading cause of disability in the United States with nearly 40 million sufferers. Causes range from poor diet, genetics, auto-immune diseases, infections, and just plain wear & tear. Inflamed joints don't just produce pain in your joints, either; they contribute to lethargy, malaise, and can even affect your organs.

Although joint inflammation is prevalent and its effects bold, it's not hard to keep your joints in tip top shape.

Exercise & Motion

Although it seems contrary to common sense to put stress on sore, swollen joints, it's actually one of the best therapies. Getting active and staying that way will keep your joints strong, enlivened, and more able to cop with the stresses of everyday life.

Diet

Diet also plays a powerful role in joint health. Foods high in fat and cholesterol contribute to the problem of joint inflammation. Eating a diet rich in Omega 3 fatty acids, dark, leafy vegetables, whole grains, fruits and brightly coloured vegetables will go a long ways towards preventing inflammation and even driving it away once it has developed.

Vitamins & Antioxidants

This category is closely related to diet but deserves attention of its own. There is much you can do beyond making sure you have proper levels of only the essential vitamins. For instance, our Joint Health Kit contains a number of ingredients that you either cannot get enough of or simply cannot get in a standard diet. The Conjointin is a formulation that specifically targets the ligaments and cartilage helping them to remain strong and well-lubricated. The AstaTrienol is based primarily upon astaxanthin, a powerful antioxidant that helps your body to regulate its inflammatory function, relieving pain and restoring mobility.

I strongly urge you to stay well aware of how important your joints are to your everyday standard of living, and to protect them so that you can be as healthy as you can be.
