Introduction:
As we age, maintaining healthy joints becomes increasingly important—especially in our knees, where cartilage naturally wears down over time. Instead of relying solely on supplements or medications, many seniors are turning to natural remedies. This soothing drink is packed with anti-inflammatory and joint-supporting ingredients that may help nourish cartilage and promote flexibility. Best of all, it’s easy to prepare and enjoyable to drink daily.
Ingredients:
1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or any plant-based milk)
1 tsp turmeric powder (organic preferred)
1/2 tsp ground ginger
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp raw honey (optional, for taste)
1 tbsp chia seeds (for omega-3 and fiber)
A pinch of black pepper (to boost turmeric absorption)
1 tsp collagen powder (optional but helpful for joint health)
Directions:
In a small saucepan, heat the almond milk over medium heat until warm but not boiling.
Whisk in the turmeric, ginger, cinnamon, and black pepper until fully combined.
Remove from heat and stir in the honey and collagen powder (if using).
Pour into a mug and add chia seeds. Let sit for 5–10 minutes to allow the chia seeds to soften.
Stir well before drinking.
Serving and Storage Tips:
