SHARK CARTILAGE POWDER

Shark cartilage is derived from the skeletal tissue of sharks and has been used in traditional medicine, dietary supplements, and even some medical treatments.

Uses of Shark Cartilage:

1. Joint Health & Arthritis Relief

• Contains chondroitin sulfate, which may help reduce joint pain and improve flexibility.

• Often used in supplements for osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.

2. Anti-Inflammatory Properties

• Some compounds in shark cartilage are believed to help reduce inflammation, making it useful for conditions like tendonitis and sports injuries.

3. Cancer Treatment (Controversial)

• Some early studies suggested that shark cartilage might help inhibit angiogenesis (the growth of new blood vessels that feed tumours).

• However, scientific evidence does not strongly support its effectiveness in cancer treatment.

4. Immune System Support

• Some people take shark cartilage supplements to boost immunity and promote overall well-being.

5. Skin Health

• Used in some cosmetic products to promote skin elasticity and hydration.

Cautions & Side Effects

• Not recommended for people with shellfish allergies.

• Can interfere with blood clotting, so it should be avoided before surgery.

• More research is needed to confirm many of its health claims.
