If you enjoy an active lifestyle, you won’t want ‘rusty’ joints holding you down.
Getting older shouldn’t stop you from with freedom of movement. living life to the full, but your joints can have other ideas.
As you age, joints can become stiffer, eventually needing more nourishment than the body can naturally provide.
CARTILAGE BREAKDOWNHealthy joints are made up of cartilage and other connective tissue, including
ligaments and tendons.
As you age, however, cartilage begins to break down as a result of normal wear and tear and the body’s reduced ability to produce glucosamine and chondroitin – major components of cartilage and other connective tissue.
This, combined with a slower absorption rate of chondroitin, leads to flexibility and mobility problems.
SUPPLEMENTS CAN HELPStudies show nutritional supplements containing glucosamine may assist the
regeneration of cartilage and help support joint mobility.*
Together with a range of strengthening and aerobic exercise, these supplements can help you maintain your freedom, despite the aging process.

EXERCISE FOR HEALTHY JOINTS
Excercise can help keep your joints limber and keep you mobile for longer.
A good fitness programme should include exercises for cardiovascular fitness, flexibility, and muscle strength and endurance.
- Cardiovascular exercise increases the heart’s ability to pump blood, and the blood vessels’ ability to carry blood to the muscles. It can improve joint mobility, and help with weight control (which can take the pressure off joints).
- Muscle strength and endurance enables you to perform activities for a longer period of time. Strong muscles also help support and protect joints from injury or stress.
- Flexibility exercises help you continue to bend, stretch and twist safely, with lower risk of injury.
