[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Eat more walnuts[/quote] This is great advice overall, they are the healthiest nut and everyone who isn't allergic should eat an ounce of walnuts daily. But when it comes to joint pain in midlife women, it's typically associated with waning estrogen and the best way to treat it assuming you are ideal weight range (if not, losing weight will help) is to really work on your diet so that it is as anti-inflammatory as possible. Ditch the refined and added sugars - really, really ditch them. Cut back on saturated animal fats and any ultra processed foods with emulsifiers and other additives. Focus hard on getting the RDA of fiber from food, not fiber supplements - fiber in food works better in the gut to create short chain fatty acids. Consider engaging in more low impact activity like swimming if it's an option. Hydrate to keep the joints lubricated. Use heat and cold therapy to address especially achy joints. [/quote]
