What can astronauts teach us about your joint pain? This popular way to heal cartilage to fix hip or knee pain from “osteoarthritis” needs a serious look.

Let's look at what happens when you rest and what happens to astronauts who provide a perfect case-study for "no-impact" living for overall joint health.

Rest to heal cartilage in your hip and knee is a popular treatment recommendation for osteoarthritis.

And even if rest can fix cartilage damage, it virtually guarantees that you’ll suffer from crippling muscle atrophy.
