Osteoarthritis

Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common form of arthritis, affecting about 12% of the general population. OA occurs when the protective cartilage that cushions the ends of the bones wears down over time causing pain, stiffness and swelling. Although OA can damage any joint, the disorder most commonly affects joints in your hands, knees, hips and spine.

Paracetamol and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are currently recommended by healthcare professionals to treat OA, but emerging evidence has challenged these recommendations and revealed new side effects.

69% of patients with OA currently take some form of dietary supplement for their condition. Despite a growing interest in natural treatments, the effectiveness of supplements for OA remains unclear and is often clouded by misinformation in mainstream media.

To combat this, we have evaluated the efficacy and safety of osteoarthritis supplements using the latest, and most trusted, data available.
