How Can Dietary Supplements Help with Joint Health?

Dietary supplements are not intended to replace healthy foods that are packed with nutrients.¹ You can use dietary supplements to help fill nutritional gaps in your diet. Taking dietary supplements along with eating healthy foods may allow you to get more of the joint and bone supportive nutrients your body needs.
