The knees are the biggest body joints, and they support the body and ensure body stability and flexibility. The knees need to function properly, so we can be able to stand, run, walk, turn around, and jump.
However, the knees often suffer over the years and thus reduce the mobility of the person. Moreover, knee pain is one of the most intense and unbearable aches.
The knees might also weaken due to nutritional deficiencies, injuries, strain, smoking, alcohol abuse, excess sodium intake, and osteoarthritis.
Yet, we offer you 10 natural ways to strengthen the knees, and support their healthy function:
1. Calcium
Calcium is a vital energy source of the bones, and it affects their overall health. Since the body does not produce it naturally, make sure you consume calcium-rich foods, and take supplements. Increase the intake of almonds, milk cheese, dark leafy greens, sardines, as well as edamame, fortified orange juice, calcium-fortified cereals and blackstrap molasses.
2. Anti-Inflammatory Foods
To fight inflammation, you should avoid white flour products sugar, soda, saturated fats, and white rice, and consume walnuts, sweet potatoes, turmeric, olive oil, ginger, flax seeds, salmon, spinach, avocado, tart cherries, blueberries.
