Bovine Trachea Substance Powder

(Bovine Cartilage)

Arthritis is characterized as inflammation of the joints, surrounding tendons, ligaments and cartilage. One of the oldest human afflictions, arthritis can affect virtually every part of the body. Two of the most common forms of the disease are osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.Osteoarthritis is a degenerative disease of joint cartilage; it is characterized by small bony growths, calcium spurs, and occasional soft cysts, which appear on the bone and in the joints. Its symptoms include loss of joint motion, stiffness, swelling and pain. An estimated 40 million Americans suffer from osteoarthritis, according to the Rheumatoid Disease Foundation. Rheumatoid arthritis is classified as an autoimmune disease in which the body attacks its own tissue. Although less common than osteoarthritis, it is a very painful joint disease, which often results in crippling disabilities for the young and old alike. Rheumatoid arthritis afflicts six million Americans. Bovine tracheal cartilage, has contributed to help, reducing inflammation as a crucial part of arthritis therapy. Bovine cartilage not only does this, but it also provides healthy biochemical components that the body can utilize in resynthesizing cartilage.
