A member asked:
Are there cartilege building vitamines?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not that I know of..: Cartilage is that hard gelatinous material that makes up lining of joints, ends of ribs, always part of some bony structure. Good bone health would equate with good cartilage health, which is maintained with exercise, stretching, lots of walking or weight bearing, hydration, and a well-balanced diet.
