The joints are points in the body where bones come together, providing the body with its complex movements. Joint health is a critical part of maintaining those movements throughout life. As we age, the tissues that maintain our joint strength and capacity begins to degenerate. Ensuring that your joints receive all the nutrients they need to maintain good health is fundamental to the health of your joints later in life.

Joints can be damaged by a number of causes, such as injury, overuse, and a range of health problems like osteoarthritis, bursitis, tendonitis, rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, influenza, and fracture.

Osteoarthritis is a very common form of arthritis. Wear and tear on the joints focuses on the cartilage. Osteoarthritis is made more serious by age-related degeneration. Rheumatoid arthritis is another major joint health concern. An inflammatory immune disorder, rheumatoid arthritis damages cartilage and joints and severely limits mobility.
