Shark cartilage is a dietary supplement made from the dried and powdered cartilage of a shark; that is, from the tough material that composes a shark's skeleton.
Cartilage is a tissue that performs its functions without nerves, blood vessels, or lymphatic systems. Nutrients are, therefore, not transported to cartilage via the blood or lymphatic fluid. It is this particular characteristic that enables the shark's cartilage to battle cancer and other diseases.
Shark cartilage contains a number of active components, the most important of which is a type of protein that acts as an angiogenesis inhibitor. It acts to suppress the development of new blood vessels. This makes it valuable in fighting a number of disorders.
Many cancerous tumors, for instance, are able to grow only because they induce the body to develop new networks of blood vessels to supply them with nutrients. Shark cartilage suppresses this process, so that tumors are deprived of their source of nourishment and often begin to shrink.
Shark cartilage contains mucopolysaccharides , which is a primary inflammation-fighting component. Two members of this family, chondroitin sulfates A and C, have long been used by nutrition medicine practitioners to fight inflammation and enteritis. Therefore, it is very useful to treat arthritis and enteritis. The mucopolysaccharides in the carbohydrate also stimulate the immune system and work synergistically with the protein in fighting diseases. The organic calcium and phosphorous are used metabolically as nutrients.
Why not mammalian cartilage? The antiangiogenesis effect of Shark's cartilage is 1000 times that of mammalian cartilage.
