6 Petua Untuk Membantu Anda Mengelakkan Isu Bersama Di Kemudian Dalam Kehidupan

Before you know it, moving around seems to be harder nowadays when compared to your younger days. Movements that seemed easier before, like climbing the stairs, jogging, or even carrying things around the house, start to feel heavy and painful. 

It is normal that as we age, our bodies will deteriorate, and this includes our bones, tendons, muscles, and more. The wear and tear from our daily movements will start to show if we don’t take care of our bodies. People who are in the following high-risk groups are also prone to damaging their joints:

  • Those in the older age group
  • Those experiencing obesity
  • Those working in injury-prone jobs
  • Those who work out intensely
  • Those who are malnourished

If left untreated and undiagnosed, these joint pains can further develop into various forms of arthritis, which can seriously impact your quality of life. 

While medication can help manage your pain, prevention is still better than cure when it comes to our health. Here are some habits that you can start building now to have a healthy body and also to prevent joint issues later in life. 

Stay active

The more you move, the less stiff your joints will be. Staying active can help your joints stay mobile, even with low-impact exercises like walking, swimming, cycling, and stretching. If you’re spending a lot of time sitting, especially when you’re working, set a timer to take a break—whether it’s for stretching or a water break. Keeping your body active will keep your joints healthy. 

Protect your joints when exercising

It’s easy to injure yourself during exercise and injury can lead to more joint problems. When starting a new sport or activity, remember to take it slow and wear proper equipment, padding, or braces to protect your joints. For sports with high-impact and repetitive movements like tennis or running, there are braces for your elbows and ankles that can provide support and prevent injury. 

Keeping a healthy weight

The more weight your body carries, the more stress there is on your weight-bearing joints, such as your knees, ankles, hips, and back. Losing the extra pounds can reduce your risk of joint damage. Start with some light, low-impact exercises and try to keep an eye on your diet by limiting sugary foods. 

Warming up and stretching before exercising

Before starting your exercise, do a light warm-up, like a brisk walk, light jog, or some jumping jacks. This can help loosen up your joints, ligaments, and tendons, while improving blood flow to your muscles. After your warm-up, stretch your muscles. Stretching can improve your flexibility and help you move better. It also prepares your muscles for physical activities—reducing the chances of injuries happening. 

Improve your posture

With long working hours in front of the computer, it’s important to make sure you have proper posture. Improper posture can add stress to your joints and muscles, leading to back pain, spinal dysfunction, joint degeneration, rounded shoulders, and more.1 Make sure your work setup is ergonomic with proper back support for your office chair, wrist pads for your keyboard, and footrest for your feet. You should also be mindful of your posture when performing repetitive motions, especially when lifting heavy objects as you could easily injure your hips, causing damage to your joints. 

Watch your diet

A healthy diet is crucial to maintaining your weight and also to make sure you have the nutrients you need to prevent joint issues. If you want to have healthy joints, avoid food with excess sugar, saturated fat, and refined carbohydrates, which can contribute to inflammation in the joints. 

There are also foods that can reduce the risk of joint problems that you can add to your diet. Curcumin, with its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, is effective in suppressing joint inflammation and pain. Alongside curcumin, you can take black pepper, which contains piperine, that can boost the absorption of curcumin by 20 times.
