eli5: Do supplements really help the advertised body part. i.e. do minerals… in a supplement advertised helping knee and joint pain really go to the joints or are they just digested and expelled? Seems to me they’re just eliminated and don’t go to the joints.

If you have knee and joint pain because you are lacking a certain mineral, supplements can help. However if you already have a normal amount of that mineral, the extra you take will indeed be expelled (in the best case).
Basicly only take supplements if a doctor checked your blood and said you need to take them
