I am 39.. What should I be taking to protect my joints and tendons?

A healthy diet and occasional exercise x f. No need to "take anything".

I feel like my tendons hurt more than my muscles though

Eat loads of fresh fish and take loads of fish oil and you'll be fine.

Your tendons hurt from what? Your office job?
If your tendons hurt (as in injury like pain), do this:
>stretches
>hot showers
>ice packs every 6 hours for 20 minutes at least on the sore spot, repeat over 3 days
>light exercise
>deload ad much as possible throughout the day

Stretches are good in general, so are mobility exercises.

>tfw memes good advice

OP, do you know what your current body fat % is? like something super low, or moderately average.

glucosamine. And/or 10 grams of fish oil daily

Stop getting older.

Guess what nigger, you start hurting more when you age. I'm 24 and I understand this. It's only going to get worse, brah. Just stay active and use good form, it's all you can do.

Not trying to bait, I'm just asking if they're snake oil
>>
>>36558486
They're snake oil unless you're one of those unfortunate people who is hypersensitive to electromagnetic radiation

>>36556887
Fish oil will probably give you the most bang for your buck, if you really want to go balls deep into joint care all the products in the link below have actual scientific evidence backing up their effectiveness
Protip:joint and tendon tissue takes a lot longer to regenerate than muscle tissue, expect to have to take most products for months or even years until the full effect is reached.

Beef gelatin works but as soon as you mix it with water it congeals into a cumshot-like blob, buy hydrolysed collagen instead, shit dissolves instantly in water
