Healthy Tips
 Nutrition and diet are topics that are in the forefront of our everyday life no matter what health condition we are in. For individuals suffering from osteoarthritis, less weight on joints, healthier foods and supplements all help in maintaining and lessening the effects of pain, swelling and joint discomfort associated with arthritis. Keeping it all going on a daily basis is the hard part. Some helpful tips to keep you eating right, maintaining mobility and managing your arthritis are:
- Get support from your family and friends. If you are preparing the food, ask for their cooperation in the kitchen as well as the food selection change. Their encouragement is always helpful in maintaining a change in lifestyle.
- Eat more colorful food. The more colorful your plate the more vitamins and nutrients you will get in your diet.
- If you need more vitamins & minerals in your diet, talk with your doctor to see which ones are right for you and what ones will be effective with the medication you might be taking.
