When it comes to diet, experts recommend loading up on turmeric, or curcumin, to help with pain and stiffness associated with the condition.
One review published in the journal Dovepress aimed to summarise the anti-osteoarthritic effects of curcumin derived from clinical and preclinical studies.
Many clinical trials had been conducted to determine the effectiveness of curcumin in osteoarthritic patients.
According to the review, patients with osteoarthritis showed improvement in pain, physical function, and quality of life after taking curcumin.
