What is Shark Cartilage?
Shark cartilage is a natural substance derived from the skeletal tissue of sharks. It is classified as a marine-derived cartilage extract and is commonly used in dietary supplements. Shark cartilage is typically included in products marketed for joint health and beauty, often combined with other ingredients such as glucosamine or collagen. Its composition includes proteins and minerals that are characteristic of cartilage tissue. Formulators may select shark cartilage for its unique marine origin and its association with structural support in supplement formulations.
