Hi Vicki,

Thanks for sharing, and it's really great to hear shark cartilage is helping your husband.

I thought I would just mention that there is absolutely no scientific evidence that shark cartilage is a cure for cancer.

Very limited studies conducted on lab animals have shown that shark cartilage can slow the growth of new blood vesseles in these animals, but this has not been shown in humans. There were a few studies that were run in the 80s which included humans, however most of these studies weren't published because the studies did not include important information about how treatment was given, how patients were assessed, or information about the cartilage that was used. This raised serious questions about the validity of the studies.

The American Cancer Society is a reputable website that provides evidence-based information on this topic, if you want to read more about it.
