Shark Cartilage 750mg | Natural Calcium for Bone and Teeth Support | 120 Vegan Capsules
Each vegan capsule delivers 750mg of pure dried shark cartilage, a naturally occurring source of calcium, phosphorus, collagen type II, chondroitin sulfate, and glycosaminoglycans. Supports bone health, healthy teeth, joint cartilage, and connective tissue in a single whole food ingredient.
How This Product Is Made
Shark cartilage is harvested from the skeletal tissue of sharks, which unlike most vertebrates have skeletons composed almost entirely of cartilage rather than bone. This makes shark cartilage an exceptionally concentrated natural source of structural compounds: collagen type II, chondroitin sulfate, glycosaminoglycans, calcium, and phosphorus. The cartilage is cleaned, dried, and milled into a fine powder that preserves the natural mineral and protein matrix of the original tissue. The powder is encapsulated in Canada in a GMP certified facility under Health Canada oversight using a hypromellose (vegetable) capsule shell, microcrystalline cellulose, and magnesium stearate (vegetable source). No artificial colours, flavours, sweeteners, or preservatives.
What Is Shark Cartilage?
Sharks are cartilaginous fish whose skeletons are made almost entirely of cartilage rather than bone. Shark cartilage is therefore one of the richest natural sources of the structural compounds that form human bone, teeth, and joint cartilage: calcium, phosphorus, collagen type II, chondroitin sulfate, and glycosaminoglycans. These compounds occur together in a natural matrix that reflects the composition of skeletal tissue, making shark cartilage a uniquely comprehensive single-ingredient source of bone and joint support nutrients.
What Are the Active Compounds in Shark Cartilage?
Calcium and phosphorus are the two primary minerals in human bone and teeth. Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body. Phosphorus is the second most abundant. Shark cartilage provides both in a naturally balanced ratio that reflects the mineral composition of skeletal tissue.
Collagen type II is the primary structural protein in articular cartilage and is also found in bone matrix and connective tissue. It provides tensile strength and structural framework for joint integrity and bone flexibility.
Chondroitin sulfate is a glycosaminoglycan and a major structural component of articular cartilage. It contributes to the compressive strength and water retention capacity of cartilage, helping maintain joint cushioning and mobility.
Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) are long-chain polysaccharides that form a major component of the extracellular matrix in cartilage, bone, and connective tissue. They attract and retain water, contributing to the hydration, elasticity, and shock-absorbing properties of joint and connective tissue.

Who This Is For
Adults seeking daily bone health, teeth support, and joint cartilage support from a natural whole-food source of calcium, chondroitin sulfate, collagen type II, and glycosaminoglycans in a single capsule. A good fit if you want a Health Canada licensed, vegan-capsule, Canadian-made supplement that provides the key structural compounds of bone and joint tissue together in one ingredient.
Not suitable for individuals with fish or marine animal allergies. Consult a healthcare practitioner before use if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, have hypercalcemia or a condition affecting calcium metabolism, or are taking medications that interact with calcium.
How to Use
Adults: Take 1 capsule, 1 to 3 times daily with food and a full glass of water, or as directed by a healthcare practitioner. At 1 capsule per day, 120 capsules provides up to a 120 day supply.
Safety and Cautions
Not suitable for individuals with fish or marine animal allergies. Consult a healthcare practitioner before use if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, have hypercalcemia or a condition affecting calcium metabolism, or are taking medications that interact with calcium (including certain heart medications or thyroid medications). Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep bottle tightly sealed. Do not use if the seal is broken or missing. Keep out of reach of children.
