Shark cartilage contains the same molecules found in the cartilage of our joints which help to re-mineralise the cartilage and slow down damage. Shark cartilage is also extremely rich in Chondroitin and Glucosamine, which are two essential components for maintaining good joint and muscle health and maintaining the integrity of cartilage and synovial liquid. They also provide powerful pain-killing properties. What's more, these molecules occur in the same ratio as in human joints which helps facilitate the production of new cartilage and contributing to the joint lubricating effect of the synovial liquid.
