Information for Users
Like all marine materials shark cartilage carries warnings for people with seafood allergies. If you are unsure about your allergy status please check with your doctor before use.
Due to the evidence that shark cartilage can inhibit blood vessel growth pregnant women should not use shark cartilage. Blood vessel growth does not occur in adults but is part of the growth process in children and foetus.
For the above reasons children should not use shark cartilage powder.
Environmentally Sustainable
Waitaki Biosciences manufacture shark cartilage from sharks caught in New Zealand under quota managed fishing practices. The cartilage is the by-product of shark caught for food and not the result of finning or other environmentally detrimental practices.
