One of the most important factors for preserving good health, quality and independence in life until old age is maintaining the function and health of the skeletal-muscular system in the body, especially the health of the joints and bones. With aging comes degenerative changes and chronic inflammation of the joints and bones, which is the cause of loss of their function and limitation of movement. Therefore, try to preserve or restore the function of the joints and bones by following the given recommendations and advice for choosing the right preparations.
Common problems with joints and bones
The most common problems that occur with bones and joints are:
Arthrosis (arthritis), which is a condition of inflammation and damage to the cartilage that covers the bones, usually accompanied by inflammation of the joint membrane. The condition can be of a mechanical nature (mechanical wear and damage of the cartilage in the joints due to long-term pressure), as a basic form or osteoarthritis (mostly of the knee joint - gonarthrosis or hip - coxarthrosis), or a consequence of an immune autoimmune reaction, i.e. rheumatoid arthritis. Regardless of the basis, each form of arthritis is manifested by severe inflammation, followed by the appearance of swelling and pain, reduced secretion of lubricating fluid, stiffness and limited movement.
GUT - this is a specific type of arthritis that usually only affects the big toe joint. As part of the inflammation itself, and as a result of accumulated high levels of uric acid in the blood, crystals form that press and damage the surrounding soft tissue, which creates severe, unbearable pain.
Osteoporosis - osteoporosis is a state of reduced bone density that occurs due to damage to the collagen structure in bones and a lack of calcium and other bone-building minerals. Such bone is more susceptible to breakage and provides poor support to the muscles and posture of the skeleton.
There are also so-called degenerative changes of the joints and the skeletal system, such as the appearance of osteophytes, popularly known as spikes, curvatures of the spine (scoliosis, kyphosis, lordosis and others), as well as the appearance of combined degenerative-inflammatory conditions such as sciatica, spondylosis, lumbago and others, which occur as a result of bad posture, damage to the joint structure and damage to the nerves (primarily from the spinal cord) as a result of pressure from the vertebrae, bones or muscles.
The benefits of curcumin
All types of arthritis and most spinal problems are chronic inflammatory processes that are manifested by swelling and severe pain. Standard corticosteroids or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory pain relievers when taken long term can cause severe damage to the stomach lining (gastritis) or liver damage. That is why science and citizens are increasingly looking for natural anti-inflammatory ingredients and preparations that do not have side effects. Of all plant extracts in nature that have shown anti-inflammatory effects, the strongest and most effective is the turmeric extract - curcumin, which is used for the production of natural anti-inflammatory preparations. It contains unique curcuminoid compounds that enable the regulation of inflammatory processes by directly blocking the immune reactions responsible for inflammation and activating anti-inflammatory and antioxidant mechanisms to protect tissue and soothe pain and swelling. That's why quality concentrated turmeric extract preparations with good absorption can significantly help to calm pain and inflammation.
The benefits of snail extract for joints and bones
Thanks to the unique composition of the secretion that snails secrete, they can protect their bodies from sharp rocks and rough surfaces on which they move, as well as rebuild their armor if it is damaged. Especially the snails of the European Helix species in the composition of their mucus have collagen, chondroitin, glucosamine, hyaluronic acid, MSM and allantoin, elements that are naturally present and necessary for joint tissue and cartilage, and today are also available in natural preparations. In addition, scientific research has shown that in conditions of arthritis or muscle tissue injury, preparations with the ingredients in snail mucus help healthy cells in the tissue to come to the site of damage and help create a new one, i.e. rebuild the cartilage or damaged tissue. which restores the function and mobility of the joint. That's why preparations with quality snail mucus extract are a real help to people with arthritis.
For whom are nutritional supplements necessary?
Nutritional supplements can provide relief from pain and inflammation, improve the quality (density) of bone tissue, and overall improve bone and joint function. The persons who will benefit from the use of these preparations are:
Persons with arthritis (osteoarthritis, gout or rheumatoid arthritis),
Persons with curvature or injury of the spine, joints or bones,
Persons with osteoporosis (or osteopenia - initial stage),
Persons with degenerative or inflammatory conditions of the spine such as spondylosis, sciatica, discopathy or hernia,
Persons with muscle injuries and inflammations, etc.
Natural products to reduce pain and inflammation
