Preventing Joint Problems: Importance of Movement and Physical Activity
Hi everyone! 🌼 Prevention is key to maintaining joint health. Here are some tips to keep your joints in top shape:

✅ Stay Active: Regular exercise strengthens muscles around the joints, provides better support, and reduces stress on the joints. Activities like walking, swimming, and cycling are great low-impact options.

✅ Maintain a Healthy Weight: Carrying excess weight puts additional stress on weight-bearing joints like the knees and hips, increasing the risk of joint problems. A balanced diet and regular physical activity can help maintain a healthy weight.

✅ Healthy Diet: Consuming foods rich in Omega-3 fatty acids, calcium, and vitamin D supports joint health. Omega-3s have anti-inflammatory properties, while calcium and vitamin D are essential for strong bones.
