To Live A Good Life

In the human body, one of the most important supports is bone. There are a total of 206 bones in our body. Between the bones, there are connections called joints. The human body consists of 146 joints. This strong and firm skeletal framework allows us to move freely and actively live our lives. The joints and bones seem very sturdy and strong but it will become weaker as we age. Moreover, our knees and ankles are the parts that hold the largest pressure and it will be worn out much quicker than the other parts of our body. According to the research conducted by today's scientists, the elders are not the only group of people that are facing joint pain and arthritis. The question is, what can we do to keep our joints and bones healthy? Read on to find out more!


Tips to Protect Your Joints and Bones

1. Stretch and Move Your Body More Often
Sit and stand, or remain in the same position for a long time could stiffen the muscles and joints, besides causing poor blood circulation problems. Changing your positions once in a while when reading, working or watching television, stretching your tibia much often can help to protect your joints health.

2. Exercise Moderately
Walking, jogging, swimming and other exercises with little impact forces can help to protect joints. In contrast, exercises with huge impact forces will increase the stress endured by joints and eventually increase the risk of joints getting hurt.

3. First Warm-Up, Then Exercise
Moderate exercises are the most important practice for the joints and bones, but we need to have a good warm-up before doing the exercises. It is to relax the joints, ligaments and the muscles, other than reducing the wounds in joints and bones during exercises.

4. Get to Know The Limits of Your Joints
Muscle pains after the exercises are very common, however if the pain continues over 48 hours, it indicates the overloaded stresses endured by joints. At this moment, the joints need recovery and the next exercises can only be continued after complete recovery. Remember to adjust the amount of exercise in the next session to prevent the harm caused by continuous intense exercises. If kept on exercising with untreated pain, the joints could be hurt and even worn out.

5. Replenish The Nutrients for Joints and Bones
Calcium and Vitamin D in milk are very beneficial for our bones health. As you have sturdy and healthy bones, the ability of your bone structures holding the weight of your body becomes much better. As the chance of your joints getting hurt decreases, living would become much easier for you.
