Q: Does Joint Care treat osteoarthritis?
A: Osteoarthritis, or degenerative joint disease, occurs when the cartilage that cushions the ends of our bones begins to break down. As bones rub against each other, pain and loss of movement may result. Middle-aged and older people are the most commonly affected, and the symptoms range from mild to very severe. Osteoarthritis can affect the hands and weight-bearing joints such as knees, hips, feet, and the back. Independent research has indicated that the active ingredients in Joint Care may help prevent osteoarthritis, or provide relief for individuals who have already experienced its debilitating symptoms.
