Vitamins To Relieve Joint Pain

TOP Vitamins to Relieve Joint Pain (Bone on Bone)
Chronic joint pain affects millions of people across the world every year.
Thousands of patients routinely seek medical attention for joint pain and
it is one of the leading causes of disability. To give you an estimation of
the disease, in 2002, about 10.5 million people in the United States said
they’ve experienced severe joint pain. But in 2014, that number had
jumped to 14.5 million, that is according to the researchers in Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention. Severe joint pain can limit a
person’s ability to perform basic functions and seriously compromise the
quality of their life. Joint pain in medical terms is known as arthralgia,
which is as common as a flu and can be caused by a wide range of
problems such as bad posture, overuse and misuse of joints like in case
of athletes, such as footballers or tennis players, nutrition deficiencies in
the diet, certain neurological problems, kidney and liver problems, just
to name a few. Luckily with strict precautions, good exercise, proper
diet and supplementation, joint pain can be managed.
In this video, we will discuss some of the best vitamins and other
nutrition that you should include in your diet if you’re suffering from
joint pain or in case you want to prevent it.
You would not want to miss the last item which can be a natural pain
killer as much as ibuprofen. So, be sure to watch all the way to the last
one.

1- Walnuts and Brazil nuts. Like oily fish, walnuts are rich vegetarian
alternative source of omega3 fatty acids, which reduces inflammation.
Also eating walnuts regularly can lower cholesterol, relax blood vessels
and reduce blood pressure. Brazil nuts are high in selenium, which
improves the quality of bones and joints.
2- Oily fish. Oily fish can reduce joint pain and morning stiffness, as it
contains unsaturated fats such as EBA and DHA. EBA and DHA also
limit the production of certain negative proteins that inhibit certain types
of arthritis. The omega3 fatty acids present in fish, such as salmon or
sardine, also increase blood flow throughout the body during exercise,
which can reduce joint pain and swelling.
3- Folate. Found in leafy green veggies, whole grains, and fruit, folate –
also known as folic acid – is a B vitamin that promotes healthy cell
growth, relieves joint pain and inflammation, and prevents changes in
your DNA that could lead to cancer.
4- Glucosamine. Glucosamine is a natural component of cartilage, a

substance that prevents bones from rubbing against each other and
causing pain and inflammation. It might also help prevent the cartilage
breakdown that can happen with arthritis.
Many supplements aimed at treating joint pain contain glucosamine,
which is one of the most well-studied supplements for osteoarthritis. But
despite this research, there are still some questions about how well it
works.
There are two types of glucosamine found in supplements: glucosamine
hydrochloride and glucosamine sulfate.
One meta-analysis found that products containing glucosamine
hydrochloride don’t do much to improve joint pain caused by
osteoarthritis. Another study shows that glucosamine sulfate does
improve these symptoms, so it may be a better option than glucosamine
hydrochloride.
When taken over a long period of time, glucosamine sulfate may also
help to slow down the progression of osteoarthritis. Studies suggest that
it slows down narrowing of the joint space, a marker of the condition
getting worse, when taken for up to three years.
5- Chondroitin. Like glucosamine, chondroitin is a building block of

cartilage. It may also help prevent cartilage breakdown from
osteoarthritis.
Many clinical studies have found that chondroitin can reduce joint pain
and stiffness in people with osteoarthritis. About 53 percent of people
who take chondroitin have a 20 percent or greater improvement in knee
pain.
Chondroitin sulfate may also slow down the progression of osteoarthritis
when taken long-term. Studies show that it slows down narrowing of the
joint space when taken for up to 2 years.
6- Dark green leafy vegetables. You might be surprised but your mom
was right when she told you, you should eat broccoli. Broccoli and
Cauliflower have shown to protect against the development of arthritis
and joint pain. These also contain antioxidants like carotenoids which
fight free radicals in the body and prevent damage to your cells and
tissues. Green leafy vegetables like broccoli, spinach and kale are
packed with antioxidants and vitamins, like vitamin A, vitamin C and
vitamin K, which protects the cells from free radical damage. These
foods are also high in bone preserving calcium.

7- Boswellia. Boswellia, also known as Indian frankincense, is

commonly used for pain caused by arthritis. Chemicals in this extract
called boswellia acids have anti-inflammatory effects.
Clinical studies have shown that boswellia extracts improve pain
symptoms more than a placebo in people with osteoarthritis.
8- Devil’s claw. Devil’s claw, also called harpagophytum, contains a

chemical called harpogoside that has anti-inflammatory effects.
Taking devil’s claw may help with joint pain from osteoarthritis. In
one study, devil’s claw worked about as well as an anti-inflammatory
drug called diacerein. However, since there isn’t much research on this
supplement for osteoarthritis, more high-quality studies are necessary.
9- SAMe. S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAMe) is a supplement commonly

used to help with symptoms of depression and osteoarthritis. Your liver
naturally produces SAMe from an amino acid called methionine. It has
several functions, including helping the production and repair of
cartilage.
When taken as a supplement, SAMe can help with symptoms of joint
pain caused by osteoarthritis. It may be as effective as the anti-
inflammatory drug celecoxib (Celebrex). In one study from 2004,
celecoxib improved symptoms more than SAMe after a month of
treatment. But by the second month, the treatments were comparable.
10- Vitamin C. Vitamin C is known to ward off winter colds, but it is

also a powerful antioxidant that fights against inflammation by serving
as a cofactor in the synthesis of collagen, the primary protein in both
joint tissue and bone. Vitamin C also fights infections that can result in
joint inflammation and is highly recommended for those with
compromised immune systems – especially those suffering from
rheumatoid arthritis, which can wreak havoc on joints.
11- Avocado-soybean unsaponifiables. Avocado-soybean

unsaponifiables (ASUs) refer to a type of extract from avocado and
soybean oils that might help prevent the breakdown of cartilage. It may
also help to repair cartilage.
Clinical studies show that ASUs improve pain symptoms more than
placebo in people with osteoarthritis.
12- Vitamin D. Sometimes when you are deficient in a certain vitamin,

your body lets you know. Such is the case with vitamin D. When you
aren’t getting enough, you may get pain in your joints. Vitamin D’s anti-
inflammatory properties help relieve joint pain.
Vitamin D also can help manage autoimmune conditions that affect the
joints, including multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, and Type 1
diabetes. A body deficient in vitamin D causes bones to lose strength
and soften – a condition known as osteomalacia in adults, and rickets in
children. The deficiency may also contribute to conditions such as RA,
osteoporosis, and fractures.
13- Calcium. What a kale salad, a glass of cold milk, and a salmon steak
have in common, is calcium. Calcium is a nutrient essential for
preventing osteoporosis and building joint strength. As a natural anti-
inflammatory, calcium reduces the risk of rheumatoid arthritis and keeps
bones strong and healthy.
14- Copper. Instead of wearing copper-infused clothes to keep your

body healthy, consider consuming it. No need to worry about munching
on a penny though, because you can get copper from organ meats,
potatoes, legumes, and dark leafy greens.
Copper’s anti-inflammatory properties are well known and can help
counteract joint pain caused by inflammation. As an added benefit,
copper has been shown to reduce both heart disease and Alzheimer.
15- Magnesium. A handful of almonds, peanuts, and cashews – or a

peanut butter sandwich on whole wheat bread – are more than just
hearty snacks. They also may help strengthen your bones, maintain
nerve and muscle function, and keep your joint cartilage strong. That’s
because these and other easy-to-find foods, including potatoes and
spinach, contain magnesium, which is known to ease arthritis as well as
joint pain and inflammation.
16- Turmeric. Turmeric is one of the most popular supplements for

treating pain, including joint pain caused by osteoarthritis. Its pain-
relieving effects are attributed to a chemical compound in turmeric
called curcumin. Curcumin seems to have anti-inflammatory effects.
Although research on turmeric for joint pain is limited, an analysis of
studies found that it improves symptoms of joint pain more than a
placebo and may be comparable to ibuprofen.
