Supplements for joint health

What are the main causes of joint injuries?

Whether you play sports or not, taking care of your joints is essential to avoid pain or injury. In fact, these can lead, in the long term, to movement difficulties, or even to a halt to your progress. The causes of injuries are numerous: fatigue, poor warm-up, stress or even an unsuitable diet.

  • Shorter and poorer quality nights can tire your body and increase the risk of injury. This is why it is necessary to get a good night's sleep of at least 7 to 8 hours in order to recover the energy necessary for the next day. Good sleep is also essential to promote the process of muscle regeneration and recovery.

  • The importance of warming up must always be emphasized. The latter allows the body temperature to rise and improve muscle flexibility. When “cold”, muscle and tendon injuries will be more likely to appear. It is generally recommended to warm up for at least 10 minutes for every 60 minutes of sports training.

  • Concentration is the basis of good mental preparation. Good concentration not only keeps muscles alert and promotes physical performance, but also helps avoid bad movements during training.

  • A good diet rich in vitamins, minerals and proteins provides muscles and joints with the energy they need to perform. However, during your physical performances, your energy reserves are depleted more quickly than at rest. If during exercise the body does not have enough or the right resources, the risk of injury becomes higher.

Food supplements to preserve joint health

  • Collagen intake helps improve joint and tendon recovery by balancing degraded collagen levels. It fights against the appearance of osteoarthritis and certain joint diseases.

  • Glycine is the amino acid mainly contained in collagen proteins. Its contribution helps prevent the risk of injuries while strengthening tendons, muscles and ligaments.

  • N-Acetylglucosamine is capable of accelerating anabolism and cartilage regeneration by 40%. It is therefore an important molecule for joint recovery. Like Collagen, it is used in particular to relieve osteoarthritis.

  • Chondroitin is an essential component of articular cartilage, tendons and skin. The intake of chondroitin sulfate is essential to fight against the degradation of cartilage cells. Its naturally anti-inflammatory action cushions shock and increases mechanical resistance, essential during combat sports for example. It helps in particular to hydrate the cartilage and thus contributes to the flexibility and elasticity of the bone. In addition, by promoting the production of hyaluronic acid, chondroitin sulfate also helps promote muscle growth.
