How Do Bone and Joint Supplements Work?

Bones and joints can be affected by a range of problems, from age-related wear and tear to chronic inflammatory conditions and nutritional deficiencies. 

  • Common joint issues include osteoarthritis, where cartilage breaks down and causes pain and stiffness, and inflammatory disorders like rheumatoid arthritis. 
  • Bones, on the other hand, can become fragile or porous over time due to osteoporosis, increasing the risk of fractures even with minor falls. 

Factors like hormonal changes, lack of physical activity, and inadequate nutrient intake all contribute to the weakening of bone and joint structures. Nutritional supplements can play a crucial role in prevention and support by providing key nutrients such as calcium, vitamin D, magnesium, and vitamin K2, which help maintain bone density and strength. For joint health, ingredients like glucosamine, chondroitin, MSM, collagen, and natural anti-inflammatories such as turmeric and omega-3s can help protect cartilage, reduce inflammation, and improve mobility. 

Taken regularly and in combination with a healthy lifestyle, these supplements can offer long-term support for musculoskeletal health.

Osteoporosis Warning Signs and Risk Factors

1.
LOSS OF HEIGHT OVER TIME - Gradual shrinking—often over several years—can be caused by compression fractures in the spine.
2.
A STOOPED POSTURE OR DOWAGER’S HUMP - Spinal fractures can lead to curvature of the upper back, particularly in older adults.
3.
BACK PAIN, ESPECIALLY SUDDEN OR SHARP - May be caused by a fractured or collapsed vertebra, even without significant injury.
4.
BONE FRACTURES FROM MINOR FALLS OR EVERYDAY ACTIVITIES - If you've broken a bone from something as simple as bending, lifting, or slipping, it could be a sign of fragile bones.
5.
REDUCED GRIP STRENGTH OR OVERALL FRAILTY - Muscle weakness can be linked to both bone and general musculoskeletal decline.
6.
MENOPAUSE - Women are at higher risk of osteoporosis, especially after the menopause - especially if they have early menopause before they’re 45, either a natural or surgical menopause.
7.
BODY SIZE - smaller people with low body weight or a small frame are more likely to suffer osteoporosis.
8.
LIFETYLE FACTORS - Lack of weight-bearing exercise, and smoking or excessive alcohol intake or a low calcium or vitamin D intake increase the risk of osteoporosis.
9.
HEALTH ISSUES - Long-term use of corticosteroids, or medications for thyroid or seizures, and chronic health conditions (e.g. coeliac disease, rheumatoid arthritis, thyroid disorders) increase the risk of osteoporosis.

If you have several of these signs or risk factors and suspect osteoporosis, see your GP to discuss your concerns.

Explainer: What are Joints and Bones Made Of?

The key to understanding this is knowing what our joints are made of. There are 3 types of tissue in our joints that can get damaged over time, and cause joint pain. The right supplements can support the body’s natural healing processes to help repair the damaged tissue. 

Cartilage - coating the ends of bones

In our joints, the ends of our bones are coated in cartilage, a slippery cushioning substance that makes the ends of two bones able to glide over each other millions of times with no friction. As we age, this gradually erodes. 

Collagen - the bone lattice

Bones are 90% collagen, a flexible structure that makes bones able to withstand knocks without shattering. As we age, our collagen production goes down, and one of the consequences is more brittle bones that easily break. 

Minerals - to make bones hard

Mineral deposits harden bones so they can support our body weight without becoming deformed. The minerals that harden our bones include calcium, magnesium and iron. A diet low in dairy foods, or the decline in oestrogen levels as women reach menopause age, reduces the deposits of minerals in bones and can lead to osteoporosis, which greatly weakens bones. 

Whether caused by aging, arthritis, or intense physical activity, the right joint supplements can help maintain flexibility, reduce stiffness, and support long-term joint health.

Joint Health Supplements for the Cartilage that Lines our Joints

Glucosamine, Chondroitin & MSM

These compounds help rebuild cartilage, lubricate joints, and reduce inflammation. Glucosamine for joints is well-researched for supporting mobility, while Chondroitin enhances cartilage elasticity. MSM (Methylsulfonylmethane) provides sulfur, crucial for tissue repair and reducing stiffness.

Hyaluronic Acid

Hyaluronic acid is naturally found in synovial fluid, which lubricates the joints. Supplementing with hyaluronic acid can help reduce joint stiffness and improve flexibility.

Turmeric & Curcumin

A powerful natural anti-inflammatory, curcumin (the active compound in turmeric) helps reduce joint swelling and stiffness. It’s particularly beneficial for those with chronic joint discomfort or inflammatory conditions like arthritis.

Omega-3 Fatty Acids

Found in fish oil and algae, Omega-3s help reduce inflammation, preventing further cartilage degradation. They also support joint lubrication, reducing friction and discomfort.

Supplements for Bones and Bone Density

Vitamin D3

Vitamin D plays a vital role in calcium absorption and bone health. Without enough Vitamin D, joints become weaker, and cartilage loss accelerates, increasing the risk of stiffness and discomfort.

Bone & Joint Supplements FAQ

What supplements are good for joints? +

The best joint supplements include Glucosamine, Chondroitin, MSM, Collagen (Type II), Omega-3, Turmeric, Hyaluronic Acid, and Vitamin D3. These nutrients support cartilage repair, reduce inflammation, and improve joint lubrication, helping to maintain flexibility and mobility.

Are collagen supplements good for your joints? +

Yes, collagen (especially Type II collagen from bovine sources) helps strengthen cartilage, supports joint cushioning, and may reduce stiffness and discomfort. Collagen also provides amino acids needed for tissue repair and works well with Vitamin C, Zinc, and Hyaluronic Acid.

Is glucosamine or omega-3 better for joints? +

Both have different benefits: Glucosamine helps rebuild cartilage and maintain joint lubrication, while Omega-3 fatty acids reduce joint inflammation and stiffness. For optimal joint health, a combination of both provides the best results, especially for conditions like arthritis.

What am I lacking if my joints hurt? +

There are many causes of joint pain, from autoimmune diseases and inflammatory conditions to injury, osteoporosis or wear and tear. Joint pain can also be linked to deficiencies in Vitamin D3, Vitamin K2, Collagen, Omega-3, Zinc, or Magnesium. These nutrients support bone strength, cartilage repair, and inflammation control. Low levels of Iron can also contribute to weaker connective tissues.

Is turmeric better than glucosamine? +

Turmeric (Curcumin) and Glucosamine work in different ways. Turmeric is a powerful anti-inflammatory, helping with swelling and joint stiffness, while Glucosamine supports cartilage repair and joint lubrication. They are most effective when taken together for comprehensive joint support.
