Most people think arthritis is worse in the cold, winter months but a dirty little secret is that it can be just as painful during the hot, summer months as well.

Paying close attention to your diet and exercising the right way can help minimize the pain. Flexcin International, Inc., a natural supplement company offering the only joint pain remedy products with CM8™, offers five great tips to control arthritis and joint pain during the summer months.

1) Activities like golf and even walking can be a good arthritis remedy because they're great ways to loosen up the body and keep the joints from becoming sedentary.

2) Drink plenty of water and fluids to stay hydrated. Joint pain and arthritis often worsens as a result of dehydration.

3) People tend to consume more sugars from teas, sodas, sports drinks, cakes and pies in the summer. Too much sugar can actually be bad for arthritis and joints.

4) When traveling, make sure to stretch and get as much exercise and joint pain treatment as possible during stops. For car trips get out and walk around frequently and stretch as much as possible on long airplane rides.

5) With activities like gardening, avoid strenuous movements which can be taxing on joints. "Pain medications mask pain and cause further damage," said Dr. Jan McBarron, M.D. N.D. and co-host of the nationally syndicated radio show, "Duke and the Doctor." "Instead I recommend Flexcin, which helps build back the lost cartilage and lubricates your joints similar to how WD-40 is used to lubricate the parts of an engine."
