Penong, a very small town on the edge of Australia's famous Nullarbor Plain and the great Southern Ocean, is a most unlikely place to find the producers of the world's most unique Arthritis treatment, a therapeutic shark cartilage powder. |
However, the proprietors of Cactus Coast Shark Cartilage have invented a totally natural way of producing shark cartilage powder.
For many years, the proprietors have believed in the therapeutic qualities of shark cartilage powder, (a natural source of Glucosamine and Chondroitin Sulphate), as a relief for arthritis and other ailments.
Their enthusiasm though, for this very popular natural therapy was diminished by the rapid growth of shark cartilage products world-wide, using mass production techniques such as chemical cleaning, organic baths, and irradiation or sterilisation.
Who knew what parts of the world cartilage was coming from? How, in an attempt to clean it and kill bacteria, did these synthetic procedures effect its therapeutic qualities?
After all, if you're going to trust a natural therapy for your wellbeing, shouldn't the cleansing procedure to produce it be natural as well?
For some years, Cactus Coast Shark Cartilage tested various natural processes to produce clean shark cartilage using by-product off small quantities of local commercially caught sharks from the Great Australian Bight. Not only did they know these were non- endangered species, but that they also came from one of the cleanest and least populated areas of the world.
From their home at Penong, the next landfall south of the great Southern Ocean is the Antarctic. And that is how they came across their unique idea! If the timeless rolling of the giant ocean waves could produce such a clean, uncontaminated and pristine environment here at Penong, then why not harvest Nature's forces to produce 100% naturally clean shark cartilage? |
And so Cactus Coast Shark Cartilage world first technique of surf cleaning was invented. When the right weather produced ideal surf conditions, the cartilage was placed in unique tumblers and left for Nature to do its work.
It was just like a giant washing machine. And the results? Beyond their wildest expectations. In a word, amazing!
Upon analysis by a laboratory certified by the Australian Government's Therapeutic Goods Administration, the cleansed shark cartilage and finished powder was found to have a natural bacteria count way below the allowable level. In terms of natural cleanliness, an incredible reading!
This meant that their powder avoided all the other artificial processes (including any irradiation or sterilisation) that other shark cartilage products went through to be cleaned.
A quality result
While their method is time consuming and greatly limits the amount of pure shark cartilage powder that can be produced, the proprietors are happy knowing that each batch will come back with an analysis showing it totally clean and able to be consumed without any other unnatural process.
No comparison
With a bright, natural white colour, and virtually no odour or taste, there simply is no comparison to other shark cartilage powders.
