Maintaining Joint Health: Causes of Reduced Lubrication and Low-Impact Exercise Benefits

Joint lubrication, primarily maintained by synovial fluid, declines with age and factors like sedentary lifestyle, poor diet, and obesity, leading to joint pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility. Low-impact exercises such as swimming, cycling, and brisk walking can improve joint lubrication, strengthen muscles, and reduce discomfort. These activities support joint health by promoting smooth movement and flexibility while minimizing stress on affected joints, aiding both physical and mental well-being.
