Bovine
Tracheal Cartilage
FACTS
More
than two decades ago, John Prudden, M.D., Med.
Sci. D., then an associate professor of clinical
surgery at Columbia Presbyterian Medical Center,
reported that bovine tracheal cartilage not only
promoted the rapid healing of wounds but could
make breast tumors shrink. Amazed at what he had
discovered, Dr. Prudden performed many other studies
on bovine tracheal cartilage. Thanks to his work
and the work of others who followed, we now know
that bovine tracheal cartilage is powerful medicine.
In fact, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration
recently granted investigational new drug status
(IND) to bovine tracheal cartilage to allow researcher
at the Cancer Treatment Centers of America to
test it on patients who have not responded to
either chemotherapy or radiation. Earlier studies
on bovine tracheal cartilage performed in the
U.S. and abroad have reported positive results
with many cancer patients. In fact, according
to Dr. Prudden's studies, bovine tracheal cartilage
cured patients for whom other treatments were
ineffective. Unlike chemotherapy or radiation,
which work by killing cancer cells but often at
the expense of healthy cells, bovine tracheal
cartilage stimulates the body's own immune system
so that it can successfully ward off the cancer.
When used along with chemotherapy or radiation,
bovine tracheal cartilage can ameliorate some
of the potentially debilitating side effects of
these treatments.
Bovine
tracheal cartilage is also a very effective treatment
for arthritis, a common condition caused by the
destruction of cartilage, the protective covering
that cushions bone and protects it from injury.
More than half of all people over 65 suffer from
some form of arthritis, and many take nonsteroidal
anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) to control the
pain. Unfortunately, the effects of NSAIDs are
often short-lived, and even if they work, they
can cause serious side effects, such as bleeding
ulcers. Bovine tracheal cartilage may be a safe
alternative to NSAIDs for many people. Numerous
researchers have reported that bovine tracheal
cartilage can less lessen pain and inflammation
typical of arthritis. Even better, it is nontoxic
and does not cause undesirable side effects.
POSSIBLE
BENEFITS
Treats
cancer with or without conventional therapy.
Relieves
discomfort of arthritis.
THE
RIGHT AMOUNT
Take
up to three 750-mg. capsules daily.
Personal
Advice
If
bovine tracheal cartilage alone does not help
your arthritis symptoms, try using it in combination
with 500-mg. of shark cartilage.
