I am curious, what could one do to prevent "wearing out" of the knees?

Install zerk fittings and grease 'em every 3000 miles or 3 months ;-)

I wish that were possible, my left knee has been causing me grief since I
was 12 (I turned 41 today). Someday, I'll probably need to get it
replaced.

food allergies can cause arthritis like symptoms.
