DHEA May Be Good for Arthritis, Too. A researcher from the National Institutes of Health was the author of an article in the Journal of Rheumatology stating that men and women with rheumatoid arthritis tend to have lower than normal levels of DHEA (dehydroepiandrosterone), and men have low testosterone levels. For many of the chronic problems of aging, including arthritis, you can try taking a DHEA supplement of 5 to 10 mg daily or every other day for women and 25 mg daily for men.

Vitamin C Saves Joint Tissues. A study from a researcher at Boston Medical Center in the journal Arthritis and Rheumatism reported that people with rheumatoid arthritis who had higher levels of vitamin C had significantly less progression of the disease and less knee pain, due to a reduction in the loss of cartilage. Cartilage is made from collagen, and vitamin C is a key component of collagen. You can take up to 3,000 mg daily in divided doses to prevent and treat arthritis.
