Believe it or not, one of the best cartilage builder in existence is Jello in powdered form; powdered gelatin is made from pig cartilage, and has long been used to rebuild cartilage in those who have had knee injuries and other problems cartilage related. I had a friend years ago who told me how he got onto it after having a severe knee injury. He found a powdered gelatin product called Knox (made by Kraft), and he used to order it by the case from the company. Over the years as the beneficial effects of gelatin on arthritis and a range of other problems became known, Knox began marketing the same stuff as a medical supplement. You can get it in the supermarket along with the regular boxed stuff for making Jell-O type gelatin. Jell-O is just as good too. If you Google gelatin supplements you'll get a wide range of products that are expensive, but the easiest and best way is a box of the stuff in water, and down the hatch. Or if you prefer, just make it into Jell-O and take it in that way. I've used it myself and the stuff works to help rebuild cartilage damage.

A dietary suppliment, available over the counter. Chondroitin is a component in the glycosaminoglycans in synovial fluid and cartilage. It functions, along with glucosamine, as a lubricant in synovial joints. There is a theory that taking exogenous chondroitin will aid in the production of cartilage and synovial fluid. This assertion is somewhat controversial. Most over the counter dietary supplements are usually derived from shark cartilage.
