Valleant has published a new guide to joint health and arthritis prevention strategies.
-- This new guide, compiled by the health education team at Valleant, provides information both for those looking to prevent joint problems, and for those already living with them. They cover dietary and lifestyle habits known to reduce inflammation in the joints, as well as mental health strategies for those facing limited mobility or chronic pain.

Joint health is a notoriously difficult topic, due in large part to the complexity of the joints and the many factors and components that contribute to their healthy functioning. As Valleant explains, the body naturally slows the production of many of these essential components as it ages, further contributing to degradation and making maintenance more difficult.
For instance, joints require synovial fluid for lubrication purposes, a protein-rich solution that carries nutrients like Omega-3 fatty acids to the cartilage. Consuming a diet rich in the key components of synovial fluid, which may include lean protein and fish, can go a long way in supporting the joints and counteracting a slowing metabolism, Valleant suggests.
They go on to encourage the adoption of regular exercise routines, but with a caveat: overexertion can place undue stress on the joints, so selecting exercises that are suited to an individual’s ability level is crucial in the prevention of further damage. This is doubly true for those with early-stage arthritis, as too little exercise can worsen the condition, while too much can also accelerate the progression of symptoms.
For those already living with the symptoms of arthritis, Valleant encourages mindful practice and directs patients to seek support from their peers. Light exercise or meditation in a group setting can both ease anxiety about the condition and build connections with those in one’s life, both of which are essential to maintaining a positive mindset.
Ultimately, Valleant encourages patients to collaborate with a health professional to develop a treatment plan that is suited to their unique situation. Those professionals may recommend products, medications, and therapeutic treatments that are not available on the open market, but which may offer meaningful relief.
This guide joins hundreds of other healthcare resources on Valleant’s website, all developed and published by their team of in-house experts. They have been in the business of health education since 1990, and still post new guides on a near-daily basis.
