Joints are key to movement and bone support. Their correct performance is essential to assure body mobility without limitations or pain.

Follow these tips and you will be able to avoid trouble in the future:

• Excess of weight will be your enemy: try to avoid the extra weight to not overburden your joints and accelerate their wear. This affects especially joint at the hip, knee, back and feet.
• Try to reduce repetitive movements since they increase pressure in the joints.
• Keep a healthy diet that includes food rich in calcium, vitamin D and protein, such as blue fish, chard, broccoli, celery, asparagus and skimmed milk products (cheese, yogurt).
• If you start to feel pain or your joints are snapping, ask your healthcare professional.
