Exercise shown to protect joints from age-related osteoarthritis
Original: Exercise as medicine—how exercise protects joints in aging-related osteoarthritis
Researchers report that regular physical activity acts as a medicine for aging joints, helping to protect cartilage and slow the progression of osteoarthritis. The findings, covered by Medical Xpress, explain the biological mechanisms through which exercise reduces joint degeneration in older adults and support physical activity as a non-drug treatment for the common age-related condition.
Why now: Growing interest in non-drug ways to manage osteoarthritis as populations age
