Are you one of those people who think you can’t walk because you have bad knees due to osteoarthritis? Well, I have some good news for you – osteoarthritis is a metabolic disease! Research has shown that as people become more metabolically healthy, their arthritis symptoms improve, and they can walk more easily.
Let’s start with the basics. Osteoarthritis is a condition that affects the joints. It happens when the cartilage cushions the joints and breaks down, causing pain, stiffness, and swelling. Most people associate it with old age, but many factors, such as genetics, injury, and being overweight, can contribute to it.
Speaking of being overweight, did you know that losing weight can help improve arthritis symptoms? That’s right! Research has shown that when people lose weight, the arthritis in their hands goes away. How is that possible, you ask? Well, as it turns out, osteoarthritis is linked to inflammation in the body, and inflammation is linked to being overweight. When you lose weight, the inflammation in your body decreases, and your arthritis symptoms improve.
But losing weight is not the only way to become more metabolically healthy and improve your arthritis symptoms. Walking is another excellent way to do it. When you walk, you increase your metabolism, which means your body burns more calories and becomes more metabolically healthy. Plus, walking helps you lose weight, which we know is good for arthritis.
You might be thinking, “But I can’t walk because I have bad knees!” Well, guess what? Walking can help improve your knee joints too. When you walk, you build strength in your muscles, which helps support your joints and reduce their stress. Walking also increases blood flow to your joints, which helps them get the nutrients they need to heal.
I know this might all sound too good to be accurate, but it’s not. I have a personal story to share with you. A few years ago, I was diagnosed with osteoarthritis in my knee. I was overweight and couldn’t walk more than a few steps without pain. I thought I would never be able to walk again.
But then, I decided to make a change. I started walking every day, even just for a few minutes. At first, it was painful, but I kept at it. Slowly but surely, my arthritis symptoms improved. I lost weight, and my knees felt better. I was able to walk longer and longer distances without pain.
Today, I’m happy to say I can walk for miles without pain. I’m more metabolically healthy than ever, and my arthritis symptoms are under control. All thanks to walking!
So, if you’re one of those people who think you can’t walk because you have bad knees due to osteoarthritis, think again. Walking is one of the best things you can do for your joints and overall health. It’s a simple, natural, and enjoyable way to become more metabolically healthy and improve arthritis symptoms. So get up, move, and start walking toward better health!
