Question: How do I eat to protect my joints? From a nutritional perspective I think it's more a matter of hitting nutritional adequacy across the board.

Protein and carbohydrates is one, but also sulfur is very important as a constituent of those, and manganese is very important as a cofactor for the enzymatic production of those things.
