How to maintain healthy bones and joints
1. Stay active
One of the most important things to remember is to stay active. Just like machinery, if not maintained and used, they tend to rust and stop working.
Likewise when maintaining joint motion. Avoid sitting in one place in one position for a longer duration. Better to at least keep moving a little every half hour to an hour.
2. Maintain weight
Body weight plays an important role in maintaining joint health. Our joints support the weight of our body. Therefore, being overweight or obese often causes pain in the knees, back and hips.
It is best to seek a professional for a healthy weight management action plan.
