397. How to Manage Joint Pain & Inflammation in Midlife


Listen Later

Midlife can feel like a roller coaster. One day everything is going swimmingly - you feel good, loose and pain-free. And then you wake up the next day and BAM! Joint pain you’ve never had before. What is going on?!

Listener Angela experienced the same thing: “I recently turned 48 and I feel like my joints are suddenly hurting all the time. I don’t feel like I’m doing anything different, and I refuse to believe that this is just part of getting older and there’s nothing I can do about it. So can you help explain why this might be going on and some options to help relieve this joint pain? I’m feeling it mostly in my wrists and my knees.”

If you’re wrestling with the sudden onslaught of joint pain or you’re hoping to prevent it, then this quick episode is for you. We’ll talk about the reason joint pain flares up in midlife, and the action steps you can take NOW through movement and nutrition to help prevent it from slowing you down.

💥Taking listener questions!!! Do you have a question about your self-care that you need help with? Just head to www.vigeofit.com/ask to submit your question, and I’ll answer it for you on an upcoming Friday episode.
