SIMPLE Ways to Prevent Osteoarthritis from Progressing

Published 2024-06-18
It is possible to prevent the spread and progression of osteoarthritis ✅

In order to do so, it's important to make sure you understand what osteoarthritis is and what is actually going on inside of your joints...as many people are led astray.

Osteoarthritis is not solely a "wear and tear" condition and this is good news because it means relief is possible. Research has uncovered that inflammation is one of the big drivers in the progression of osteoarthritis. Taking a look at what increases inflammation as well as how you can modify those factors is key to stopping your arthritis from getting worse.

    I can’t thank you enough for all the information you share, I am a 60 year old with severe osteoarthritis in my feet and knees and after watching you for some years now I have gone from barely being able to move to now walking daily without much pain at all, I am so very appreciative of your help ❤
  • I decided to stopp taking kortison. I changed my diet to less milk and gluten, and the inflamations stopped. Those are the largest triggers to inflamations. I also started to take glucosamin, collagen and tumetic. And do easy exercises, mostly streching, and meditate with music with low frequenses. My life has changed!

    I am new to osteoarthritis and trying to understand it. May sound weird but this brought me to tears because you explained it so well and how and why nutrition and exercise help. I signed on with a wonderful and patient personal trainer and exercise does make me feel better but then when I eat something I get so much pain/flareup, but this made so much sense. My grocery list has lots of fruits and veggies on it. You got me excited to conquer this. Thank you.

    I've been diagnosed with bilateral knee OA. I've completed a Prolotherapy ozone injection 2 months ago. Now I'm doing physiotherapy sessions. Exercises and diet are really important that can help to live a life with OA normally 😊. I've been following Dr. Alyssa YT since I've been diagnosed with OA. It really helps a lot and motivates patients like us😊😊😊

    I have RA as well as Osteoarthritis. Movement is key for me. I swim and I farm , I have animals and stay very busy. The more I move and have weight bearing exercises, he better it is for me. If is am sedentary, I hurt am stiff and just not happy. And you are so right inflammation is the main thing I have to watch for in both diseases.
  • WOW, what an incredible teacher you are Alyssa! My GP nor my rheumatologist ever explained my PSA and OA in the manner in which you have in 19 minutes. I have noticed since starting to exercise every morning that not only have I lost weight, (at a plateau right now) but my Metabolic Panel changed as well, and I don't hurt quite as much (it still happens though). Thank you for taking the time to actually explain in detail what is really going on inside the joints. If I haven't said it before I'll say it now, you have the most GORGEOUS legs and I envy them to pieces. 😍

    Alyssa is very right. When i am constipated or when i est sugar, junk food, processed food, my knees hurt. But when i have regular bowel movements, when i eat healthy with lot of vegetables and fruits, i have no pain, no stiffness. All in all, exercise, eat right, lose weight, take care of your health holistically will help reduce inflammation which is the cause of all illnesses.
  • @samcormas6466
    I’ve been diagnosed with having osteoarthritis in my hands real bad! She is really good and I have a complete admiration for her she’s beautiful!
  • I have osteoarthritis I have a lots of problem some time to get up when I get up thank you for sending all those who has osteoarthritis 👍
  • @lindaleyrer8647
    Great information! I have been doing intermittent fasting for 3 months along with organic and healthy foods. I’ve lost over 25 lbs. and feel fantastic. I do chair yoga as well as low impact cardio for at least 30 minutes every day. I’m 65 and feel 25 years younger just implementing these 3 things in a short amount of time. I had terrible acid reflux and now I no longer have to take medication for it. My arthritis has improved as well. ❤️
  • I had horrible bilateral knee OA. I was looking at knee replacements and was on Tylenol and Meloxicam around the clock along with icing, heat therapy and bracing and even having g to use trekking poles. Then I lost 55 pounds through intermittent Fasting. No more OA pain. No more meds. I am back to walking pain feee 4 miles a day and I feel great. I highly recommend Intermittent Fasting. It has given my life back!
  • Thank you so much for this, Alyssa. I was feeling 'doomed' by my joint pain. I'm 64 and I was feeling at the end of the rope. Those 'roadblocks' can be minimised, even avoided. Your video is so brilliant I can't thank you enough
  • @user-kh9sz9ol1z
    Thank you for your videos. You present so professionally and have been an extreme help to me for Osteoarthritis in my hip. You are so very thorough and I appreciate how caring and understanding that you are . Thank You!
  • Thank you so much for this informative video! My neighbor had arthritis and became a vegetarian..she no longer has any pain and is thriving.
  • @julie5668
    A high fish diet with plenty of fruit and nuts, as well as kimchi and kefir yoghurt. I exercise 30 minutes 6x a day with Sunday off. I also don't drink and only drink herbal tea.
  • @charborgmann954
    I have osteoporosis and your videos have helped me so much, especially for hips. Some exercises are so simply and easy, but with great relief. For me it just a lifestyle change, diet n excercise. We have only one body So love and take care of it
  • @sdki562
    I can’t believe how changing my diet helped my knees and walking . I love these videos
  • @berlinangel987
    Alyssa, this is the best presentation on the subject I have listened to since my diagnosis of hip OA stage 4, three years ago. As an OR nurse, I refused to accept two doctors‘ opinion that surgery/implant was the only solution. YouTube lead me to you only very recently, when searching „cardio with OA“, but I confirm everything you say. I took things into my own hands, and today I am pain-free, walking pretty normal versus limping, re-building lost muscles, and the occasional cracking in the joint gets less and less. In my case, I noticed the physical load at work was too much for my very thin body. As a female after menopause, other joints deteriorated as well: rhizarthrits in both hands, metatarsalgia in the foot. All Improvisation with reducing inflammation and specific exercize. The final step was leaving the job for a physically less challenging one. Now I feel my joints regenerating, or at least Peeling good again. However, I must continue moving etc!
