Are you the type of person to take a handful of vitamins in the morning? Some people are firm believers in the power of supplements (like us), and other’s aren’t buying it. Whichever side of the debate you’re on, we believe that the proper supplements can have a positive impact on your health and wellness. The keyword here is proper. Random supplements may not do you any good, but taking the right ones for the right reasons can boost certain areas of your health, including your spine. To improve the health of your spine, consider these supplements.
Omega 3 Fatty Acids
Omega 3 fatty acids, often found in fish like salmon, as great for the body as a whole. It benefits the brain, heart, and even the spine. This supplement can reduce inflammation and also helps support the little amounts of fluid that are in between various parts of the body. That fluid supports mobility and comfort, and helps the body communicate messages from one place to another with little interference.
Glucosamine
Glucosamine is a supplement that often benefits those that are suffering from back pain. This supplement supports the material that cushions each disc of the spine. When you take enough glucosamine, your body is provided with just the right amount of support to keep pain at bay. When you don’t have quite enough, you may experience tension, pain, and pressure due to a lack of comfortable material to support your spine.
Curry
Yep, you read that right. Kick up the health of your spine with curry! UCLA recently conducted a study that showed those with a diet high in curry had better back and spinal health. This is because curry helps relieve inflammation in the body, leading to more mobility and less pain. You can purchase curry as a supplement, or add some of it to your food for better health (and flavor!).
