Bones & Joints
The human body consists of more than 200 bones, and more than 200 joints that connect all those bones, but we seldom think about how these components work together to allow us to walk, run, jump, climb, dance and swim. Our bones are living, growing, and constantly changing - and staying active requires healthy strong bones and joints. To keep our bone and joint health optimal, we need the right nutrients. A healthy and balanced nutritional intake can preserve bone mass, and certain nutrients may assist in the renewal and mineralisation of bone tissue, which is essential for healthy nerve and muscle function.
Common bone and joint issues may include:
- Stiffness after exercise
- Joint inflammation
- Muscle cramping
- Growing pains
- Reduced mobility
- Muscle pain
- Muscle spasm
- Swelling
- Muscle fatigue
- Slow recovery after exercise
