What alternatives are effective for joint health besides fish oil?

Hello, Welcome to icliniq.com. I can understand your concern. Yes, fish oil contains omega 3, which generally helps reduce inflammation and manage joint pain. A better suggestion to deal with this pain and prevent it from recurring is to strengthen the muscles around the knee. The quadriceps, hamstrings, and also the muscles of the leg, once strengthened, help to improve the tone of the knee, which helps to reduce the symptoms of the knee joint.
