Shark Cartilage For Arthritis?

One in seven people in America, or nearly 40 million are reported to have arthritis. For many, the arthritis causes pain in the joints and knees. One very promising dietary supplement that has been shown to relieve arthritis is the shark's cartilage.

Scientists consider this amazing fact: The shark is a creature that has remained unchanged for 400 million years. It seemed to be the only creature with a natural immunity to cancer and other diseases known to man. Scientists believe that it is in the shark's cartilage skeleton that provides this amazing immunity.

Shark cartilage contains mucopolysaccharides, an anti-inflammatory mplecules that has been found to contain a concentration of one thousand times greater than any other type of cartilage. in fact, it is now manufactured as dietary natural supplement to lessen pain and stiffness in joints and knees.

Dr. Joseph Orcasity, a consultant at the University of Miami Medical School, treated a dozen elderly arthritis patients with severe arthritis in their knees. After taking shark cartilage for four weeks, most patients exhibited reduced pains and swelling and increased mobility. This case is reported in the book "Knee Pain: The Self-Help Guide" by John Garrett, M.D. & Bob Reznik
