What Knee Pain?

Try these tips to reduce or even diminish knee pain:

1. Lose Weight. If you're overweight, shaving off just one tenth of your body weight can reduce pain by as much as 50%!
2. Flatten Feet While Bending. Keeping your heels on the floor when bending protects knees by transferring tension to the thigh muscles.
3. Supplement Combo To Try. Talk to your doctor about glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate; together these supplements are shown to reduce knee pain in nearly 80% of cases.
4. Walk Softly. Walking on grass, turf or dirt is easier on knees than walking on asphalt or concrete.
5. Drink More Milk. Vitamin D fortified that is! A deficiency of D is linked to increased joint pain.
6. Take The Pill. Women who take oral contraceptives are significantly less likely to tear ligaments and hurt knee joints.
