Kiwi and pineapple: vitamin C and anti-inflammatory effect combined
Kiwi concentrates an impressive amount of vitamin C. This nutrient plays a key role in the synthesis and preservation of collagen, the protein responsible for the elasticity and strength of your joints. A lack can result in stiffness when waking up and discomfort when walking.
Pineapple, on the other hand, contains bromelain, an enzyme with well-documented anti-inflammatory properties. Many joint pains are caused by discreet inflammations, which bromelain helps to gently soothe. A word of advice: choose fresh pineapple, which is much more effective than canned processed versions.
Papaya and guava: optimal absorption and long-lasting protection
Papaya contains papain, an enzyme that improves protein digestion and promotes the assimilation of amino acids essential for muscle and tendon reconstruction. Weakness in the lower limbs is not always related to a low-protein diet, but sometimes to poor absorption. This is precisely where papaya comes in.
Guava, on the other hand, has an even higher concentration of vitamin C than oranges. Its antioxidants defend existing collagen against the effects of oxidative stress, helping to maintain joint flexibility over time.
