The Surprising "Best" Exercise for Knee Arthritis
About this episode
In today's episode we're challenging everything you thought you knew about knee arthritis.
For decades, patients were told to rest their joints to avoid "wear and tear," but the latest science shows that inactivity actually makes the problem worse.
We dive into a massive new study of over 15,000 people that identifies aerobic exercise - like walking and cycling - as the gold standard for reducing pain.
We also discuss how groundbreaking medications are helping patients slash their joint pain by over 50% through weight loss and reduced inflammation. It’s time to get moving again.
