| Definition: | Bovine cartilage helps to promote wound healing and inhibit
inflammation. Compounds in bovine cartilage have the ability to block
angiogenesis, the process by which tumors are fed by a network of new
blood vessels. |
| Applications: | Rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, ulcerative colitis, lupus,
firm tumors, connective tissue diseases and inflammatory joint
conditions. |
| Recommendations: | Make sure to purchase clean and pure
dried-powder forms that come from cattle which are disease and
hormone free. Like shark cartilage, bovine varieties must be taken in
rather large doses in order to work. Loose powdered forms are much
more practical, although the capsulized product can be used
preventatively. |
