MONTHS. ACCORDING TO THE INSTITUTE FOR PREVENTATIVE SPORTS
MEDICINE, EACH YEAR, ALMOST 300-THOUSAND PEOPLE BECOME SERIOUSLY

THEODOSAKIS--A SPORTS PHYSICIAN AND AUTHOR OF NATIONAL BESTSELLER
"THE ARTHRITIS CURE"--SAYS THERE ARE WAYS TO HELP PEOPLE IMPROVE
JOINT HEALTH, AND TACTICS TO AVOID INJURY, WHEN ACTIVE THIS WINTER...
(THEODOSAKIS):
"BEFORE ENGAGING IN WINTER ACTIVITIES, IT'S
IMPORTANT TO FOLLOW A JOINT-HEALTHY LIFESTYLE: EAT A HEALTHFUL,
ANTIOXIDANT-RICH DIET--AND MAKE SURE TO GET SOME FORM OF REGULAR
EXERCISE, LIKE WALKING, TO KEEP THE BODY IN SHAPE. ALSO, CONSIDER
A JOINT-HEALTH SUPPLEMENT LIKE 'NATURE MADE TRIPLE-FLEX'--WHICH
INCLUDES GLUCOSAMINE AND CHONDROITIN, AND HELPS IMPROVE JOINT FUNCTION
NATURALLY. AND, JUST LIKE ANY SPORT, WINTER ACTIVITIES REQUIRE
CONDITIONING YOUR MUSCLES: BE SURE TO WARM UP BEFORE PLAYING,
SINCE COLD MUSCLES, TENDONS, AND LIGAMENTS ARE ESPECIALLY VULNERABLE TO
INJURY."

IT'S ALSO RECOMMENDED TO CHOOSE AN ACTIVITY WITH AN INTENSITY LEVEL THAT'S
RIGHT FOR YOU. BY NOT OVEREXERTING YOURSELF, YOU CAN AVOID A
POTENTIALLY SIDELINING INJURY--AND CONTINUE TO ENJOY ALL THE ACTIVITIES
THAT WINTER HAS TO OFFER. FOR MORE INFORMATION ON HOW TO LEAD A
