Cracking joints is the occurrence of moving one's joints such that they produce a sharp sound, likened to cracking or popping, etc.The most common form of this occurs during deliberate knuckle cracking, a process different from snapping one's fingers. It is possible to crack many other joints, such as those between the back and neck vertebrae wrists, elbows, shoulders, toes, knees, jaws, and the Achilles tendon area.
What's really happening when you "crack" your knuckles is that you are either pushing the joint back into or out of its normal position. Joints are the meeting points of two separate bones which are held together by connecting tissues and ligaments. A thick, clear lubricant (made mostly of carbon dioxide and some nitrogen) called synovial fluid is found between the bones. When you stretch or pull your finger to get that desired popping noise, you are causing the bones to pull apart. Pressure is reduced on the synovial fluid and bubbles form that quickly expand and then burst - which is why you get that noise.
Not everybody's joints crack. Some people have a larger separation between the bones and some people can't relax enough to allow the bones to separate. If you can crack and your mom tells you, you're going to get arthritis, she's just yanking your chain. Everybody now pay attention because this is REALLY important.There is no scientific evidence that cracking your knuckles leads to arthritis. However, it can't be good to repeatedly push a joint beyond its normal physical range. Cracking your knuckles can cause a decrease in your grip but unless you're signing any multi-million dollar contracts as a pitcher, it's not worth giving up.
Look mom, i don't wanna argue with you but just look at these facts!!!!Cracking-my-knuckle activity is just so healthy and it doesn't really bring any harm!!!!So please just stop nagging me when i start to crack my knuckles ok?I really feel so uncomfortable when i don't do that!Look at these facts!!!Cracking-my-knuckle activity is just totally healthy, organically healthy...Satisfied?

Cracking ur knuckle is totally healthy? How do u define healthy? U can say it is harmless but it is not appropriate to state it as healthy or "organically" healthy (as how u termed it). It is a different meaning implied from the article u quoted.
My bad,my bad...
You see,I like to joke with my mum with all those "organic" things since she's an organic product supporter...so i'm basically just joking around with it...No offense dude!
