Omega-3 Fatty Acids

for Joint Pain

Daily omega-3 supplementation (2–4g EPA/DHA) from fish oil to reduce joint inflammation and morning stiffness.

How it works

EPA and DHA compete with arachidonic acid to reduce production of pro-inflammatory prostaglandins and leukotrienes that drive joint inflammation.

What to watch for

Effects take months to build. Most evidence is for rheumatoid arthritis — evidence for osteoarthritis is weaker. May modestly reduce NSAID requirements.
