Joint Health

3-_Vitamins_Made_Simple-_Joint_HealthIf you suffer from joint pain due to osteoarthritis, the most common form of arthritis, you may want to consider taking a niacinamide supplement.  A form of vitamin B3, niacinamide’s role in joint health has been studied since the 1940s.  Over the years, a number of studies have confirmed the benefits of niacinamide in reducing inflammation and improving joint mobility.  In some people, niacinamide helped so much that their doctors were able to lower the dosage of their arthritis medications.

Your vitamin bottle may provide some other helpers as well.  Some studies indicate that antioxidants such as vitamins C, E, and beta-carotene may relieve the symptoms of both osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.  Vitamin D may also play a role.  By assisting the body to absorb calcium, vitamin D helps keep bones strong and healthy so they can provide a solid support for the joints.

Most experts agree that the best way to get all the vitamins your body needs is to eat a well-balanced diet, but not everyone eats three healthy meals each day.  If you think your diet might not be providing all of the nutrients your body needs, you might want to consider taking a supplement.  Your Sobeys Pharmacist can help you select one that will meet your particular needs.
