As we move in to the summer months, we tend to be more active. So it’s important to be aware of your increased activity and how it is affecting your body.
Whether you have engaged in a certain sport for years, are part of a local group that gets out and exercises regularly, or if you just like to be active when you can with family and friends, you need to keep in tip-top shape so you can keep doing what you love.
With age, the body generally requires more upkeep but it’s important to be aware of weaknesses in your body and the strains you are putting on joints when exercising. Why not consider what you can do to prevent injury?
Exercising is important to keep joints strong as you age, but if your joints won’t allow you to exercise the way you want, then you are heading in a downward spiral. So what are your options?
Warming up and cooling down are a must. Not overdoing exercise when you are feeling strain or pain is vital and taking a natural preventative can assist you in keeping problems at bay.
As scientific research continues to connect inflammation in the body with injury and disease, more people are opting for anti-inflammatories and antioxidants as prevention. There are a plethora of products on the market, so how do you cut through all the hype and make an informed decision?
Roger Fitzhardinge is a physiotherapist, dressage specialist rider and dressage coach. Having led a seriously sporting life from a young age, and being competitive by nature, his body has had its share of gruelling times.
He explains, “Being a physiotherapist, I know the problems with joints – ageing, and wear and tear.This is inevitable, especially when being active in sport has been a way of life. More to the point is that I still wantto be active and competitive. My joints ache but I ignore them or take anti-inflammatories. I have tried many different joint formulas and can say that I have never found any benefit, and it wasn’t from the lack of trying.”
Despite initially being sceptical, Roger discovered Rose Hip Vital, decided to give it a go and was “blown away” with the result.
Rose-Hip Vital® with GOPO® is made from 100 per cent patented rosehip powder and backed by more than 30 scientific studies, including nine clinical trials.
The unique and patented compound GOPO® has a powerful anti-inflammatory action, which discourages excess white blood cells from gathering in the joints, thereby breaking the cycle of inflammation.
The vitamin C and antioxidant combination provide significant support to the immune system, which helps discourage the attack on joints, as well as providing a wide range of other health benefits.
Roger, aged 61, says,“I cannot tell enough people the difference it has made to my life. I am fitter and healthier, and my joint pain is without doubt minimised. I am on no other medication at all and I can absolutely say that Rose-Hip Vital has changed my life.”
“I will not go a day without it. I simply feel better and have less joint pain, so I am able to do more, and so the wheel goes around. I feel fantastic and, of course, this all leads to a better mindset and positive outlook. “
The research undertaken on Rose-Hip Vital® indicates that GOPO® discourages large numbers of white blood cells from accumulating in the joint. This breaks the vicious cycle of joint inflammation, thereby alleviating pain. It has been proven to help reduce joint pain and stiffness; improve flexibility and mobility, and is used very successfully by arthritis sufferers across Australia.
As Roger discovered, Rose-Hip Vital® with GOPO® was the perfect product for him to keep doing what he loves.
If you want to stay active as you age, treatment and prevention is essential, and finding a natural product that can assist with your general wellbeing and keep you active can only be a positive addition to your daily routine.
