Natural Arthritis Relief for Seniors (2025)

Stiff knees on morning walks? Hands that ache when gripping a coffee mug? NSAIDs like ibuprofen ease pain fast—but long-term use can irritate the gut and raise blood pressure, especially after 50. That’s why more older adults search for natural arthritis relief every year.

Below you’ll find six science-backed, senior-friendly approaches you can combine for daily comfort, followed by diet tips, easy mobility exercises, and a gut-safe supplement stack. We close with a deep dive on high-potency, full-spectrum CBD oil—a plant-based option that supports joints and overall well-being.

1 · Turmeric (Curcumin) + Black Pepper

Curcumin blocks the COX-2 pathway—the same enzyme ibuprofen targets—without the GI irritation. Pair 500 mg curcumin with 5 mg piperine (black-pepper extract) for best absorption.

2 · Collagen Peptides

Hydrolyzed collagen provides the amino acids your body uses to rebuild cartilage. Two randomised trials showed 10 g/day improved knee comfort in older adults within three months.

3 · Omega-3 Fatty Acids

EPA and DHA reduce inflammatory cytokines and morning stiffness. Seniors aiming for heart and joint support should target a combined 1000 mg EPA+DHA daily with food.

4 · Gentle Mobility & Stretching

Low-impact movement (water aerobics, tai chi, or a 20-minute daily walk) lubricates the joint capsule and maintains range of motion. Pair with the three-move routine below.

5 · Full-Spectrum CBD Oil: Multi-Path Joint Support

Full-spectrum CBD delivers cannabinoids, terpenes, and flavonoids that work together in the entourage effect. Early studies show CBD may:

Modulate pain signalling via TRPV1 receptors ^[1]
Reduce inflammatory markers (CRP, TNF-α) ^[2]
