Shark?
I know what you guys are thinking. "I thought this was a blog about all-natural health supplements." Don't worry, it still is. I'm here to tell you guys about glucosamine. If you have a friend or family member with bad knees, you have probably heard of glucosamine.
Glucosamine
It's a naturally occurring element found in your body. However, as you age the ability to produce them decreases. This is a problem because glucosamine is essential for your tendons, ligaments, cartilage, and the thick fluid that surrounds your joints. This means as glucosamine level drops the fluid around your joints that acted as a cushion slowly goes away causing stiff joints and pain. Taking glucosamine supplements can dramatically help with this decreased level of glucosamine in your body.
Still didn't explain the shark.
Now you guys are thinking, "Dude, what about the shark?" Okay, so glucosamine can be extracted from different sources but premium ones are made from shark cartilages. The reason shark cartilages are so awesome is that it is famously known to help with cancer, diabetes, and much more, and not just with arthritis. See, sharks aren't so terrifying now. Well... they are still scary. Try not to go near them. Unless it's already in a form of glucosamine pills.
