To reduce the risk of developing arthritis, the following responses are most relevant:

  1. By controlling your weight: Maintaining a healthy weight can reduce stress on joints, especially weight-bearing ones, and lower the risk of osteoarthritis.

  2. By getting enough vitamin D: Adequate vitamin D is important for bone health, and some studies suggest it may play a role in reducing the risk of developing certain types of arthritis.

The other options, such as taking a multivitamin or doing high-impact aerobics, are less directly related to reducing arthritis risk. While a multivitamin might help fill nutritional gaps, it doesn't specifically target arthritis prevention. High-impact aerobics can be beneficial for overall fitness but may put additional stress on joints and could potentially aggravate existing joint issues.

Overall, focusing on weight management and ensuring adequate vitamin D levels are the most effective strategies from the provided options.
