Prof. Klaus Baum cares for osteoarthritis patients in his medical fitness studio in Cologne

Regular exercise

Prof. Baum:"I often hear my patients say: 'I'm taking it easy on my joints, otherwise I'll damage them even more. But the opposite is true: there is scientific evidence that targeted training can reduce pain and increase joint functionality."

Good nutrition

Prof. Baum:"When it comes to nutrition, two things are particularly important for osteoarthritis: Basically, there should be enough joint-active nutrients. You should also include important omega-3 fatty acids in your diet. Fresh wild-caught sea fish, linseed and walnut oil and green vegetables, for example, are suitable for this."

Sports that are easy on the joints

Prof. Baum: "In general, all types of sport are suitable for osteoarthritis if the intensity and amount of exercise can be well controlled. This includes walking or cycling as well as strength training that strengthens the muscles surrounding the joint and stabilizes the joint."

An active life

Prof. Baum: "Inmy opinion, independence in everyday life and an active lifestyle are key factors for a good quality of life. And this is not impossible with osteoarthritis. Because movement is particularly important here: only through regular movement can all the important nutrients be 'rolled in' for bones and cartilage."
