Shark Cartilage Powder
Waitaki Biosciences' Shark Cartilage Powder is manufactured using proprietary drying technology to dry cartilage from shark species harvested from the sparkling pristine waters surrounding New Zealand. The sharks are source from a quota managed sustainable fishing resource, already having been harvested for the meat. Proprietary drying technology used to manufacture
shark cartilage powder is critical to maintaining the integrity of the natural components in the cartilage with its biological activity.
Shark cartilage is traditionally used as a natural supplement for sufferers of joint and inflammation conditions and for the inhibition of angiogenesis associated with tumour growth. Shark cartilage contains chondroitin sulphate and proteins widely recognised as being associated with joint pain relief and aiding joint mobility.
Research has identified the role of shark cartilage in the inhibition of angiogenesis or the growth of new blood vessels invitro. Angiogenesis is a complex process of new blood vessel formation, which is central to normal human development. However, uncontrolled angiogenesis plays a critical role in both inflammatory and neoplastic disorders (the transformation of normal cells into tumour cells).
In addition to the nutritional aspect it is widely used in the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industry. Shark cartilage powder is also widely used in equine and veterinary products and is promoted as a natural bone and joint disorder supplement.
Delivery forms for shark cartilage include shark cartilage capsules, shark cartilage tablets, shark cartilage powder, liquid shark cartilage suspensions and food materials.
