2. Over time, it begins to settle in the joints in the form of sharp, microscopic crystals.
3. These crystals begin to literally “scratch” the cartilage from the inside, causing inflammation, swelling, and severe pain.
At first it’s just a slight discomfort – you feel something pulling.
Then you can’t bend the joint well anymore.
And finally – the doctor tells you it’s time for injections or medication.
And it’s not just a matter of age!
The truth is that many people bring themselves to this state – without even realizing it.
The reason often lies not only in food or genetics, but in daily habits that seem to have nothing to do with joints – but actually destroy them from the inside.
What are these habits? You’ll be surprised – because most of us have them.
Mini-test: Is it time to worry?
Check yourself and answer honestly:
• Are your fingers or feet stiff in the morning, as if they were made of wood?
• Do your knees creak and hurt until you “move” them?
• Sometimes your joint hurts, but then it goes away on its own?
• After eating meat or smoked foods, do you feel like your joints are “on fire”?
• Swollen toes, ankles or feet – are your shoes suddenly tight?
👉If you recognize two or more signs, don’t ignore them. This could be a hidden signal that uric acid has already started to accumulate.
