Medical Doctors & Shark Cartilage

Many customers wrote that their medical doctor is supporting them in their taking shark cartilage, because he could see how much it helped them. A big change is happening all over North America. Health food store sales are booming. Drugstore chains are advertising that they are stocking alternative medications. There were 629 million visits made to alternative care practitioners, exceeding the visits to all conventional physicians (Source: Medical newsletter Dr. Julian Whitaker M.D., Newport Beach, CA) These are decisions made by the people - people power. Our family doctor recommends natural remedies where appropriate. My wife’s gynecologist took time off to study alternative medicine and uses now natural hormones and treatments. He does not want more patients. Some are coming by plane right across the country. He also Lectures now at medical schools to teach new doctors about alternative medicines that was not taught in the olden days.

There are 20,000 deathes each year caused by arthritis drugs (Source: Same medical newsletter, Dr. Julian Whitaker M. D.) and countless thousands are hospitalized. No deathes or side effects were ever reported due to shark cartilage.

The Hamilton Spectator newspaper, October 15, 1999, reports: McMaster University Medical School professor calls for courses on alternative treatments. Conventional medicine can no longer ignore such therapies. A national Gallup survey showing Canadians are regularly turning to alternative medicine. He said even doctors and their families have started using alternative treatments.

The Hamilton Spectator October 19, 1999: Health Minister Allan Rock is studying a $100 million proposal from McMaster University to establish a school for complementary medicine. Our research tells us this would be a first in North America. Copps, who is herself a firm believer in the value of natural treatments, said, "Everybody is using them."

One medical doctor from the old school and full of hatred for alternative medications wrote us a foul letter with many rude words I have never received in all my life, using words like: “crap”, “health scam”, “fraud”, “this insanity has to stop”, he “knows it does not work”, “unsubstantiated claims are made” by me. I did not reply to his letter. I sent his letter to all our customers with his complete name and location and asked them to send me their opinion about Dr. P. and give him a piece of their mind. They did. This letter from Dr. P. made people so angry that they wrote the best testimonials I have ever received. Here are some excerpts:


Closed mind - despicable attitude
I’m afraid this Dr. P. is afflicted with a bad case of closed mind - despicable attitude!! His promiscuous use of colorful (untrue) phrases is really alarming (and very, very unprofessional). Bell shark cartilage is a widely used natural product, endorsed by happy satisfied users and this includes myself. It really works. For years I had constant crippling pains in hips, knees and ankles. Thanks to the use of shark cartilage those pains are all gone. Sorry Dr. P. You are wrong, all wrong, and you are dangerously biased without just cause.

32 years cried barrels of tears
Re: Dr. P.’s letter to you. I think it is very ignorant as I have had arthritis for THIRTY-TWO YEARS, suffered everything but death, cried barrels of tears, knees twisted out of shape, fingers crooked and stiff. I have been to doctors, doctors and more doctors. Had eighty-eight electrical treatments by a chiropractor. I have taken thousands of dollars worth of pain killers, antibiotics, ani-inflammatory pills, which I became allergic to and they NEARLY KILLED ME. Since I started taking BELL shark cartilage I am now able to stoop and do things I wasn’t able to do for years and when my doctor saw how I had improved and I told him what I was taking, he told me to continue with it and to tell many people about it, as he said so many people have arthritis. How could Dr. P. be so cruel, if he doesn’t know what he is talking about, I know that if I had not found out about Bell shark cartilage, I would be in a wheel chair today. I can’t run, but I would try my darndest to chase Dr. P. I will stand by you and shark cartilage till my dying day. I am so happy I saw your ad. My husband is now taking it for his neck, shoulders and prostate. My daughter is taking it for her knees and both have a great relief.

Lack of intelligence
I was shocked to read what this Dr. P. has written, making statements about Bell shark cartilage. His lack of intelligence is showing badly. The medical profession today has no help for arthritis pain. My medical doctor told me, he had good news and bad news for me after looking at my X-rays. The good news was “it won’t kill you” and the bad news was, I wouldn’t know where to start “He can’t help”. When I came across your ad I jumped at the offer. It was the wisest move I’ve made in years. Dr. P. deserves a good dose of arthritis. He is wrong and does not know what he is talking about. Poor Soul. I will not go without Bell shark cartilage again. Thanks to you Nick!

Sounds like a real loser
This is the first time this summer in 12 years that I took active part in haying. It is very satisfying to get out and be useful again. I certainly can’t agree with Dr. P.’s negative attitude. He sounds like a real loser.

Take a flying leap
After 3 weeks and 12 capsules a day of Bell shark cartilage I was nearly pain free. I have now been taking it for 9 months and I am PAIN FREE. For maintenance I take 2 capsules per day and that keeps me happy. Dr. P. take a flying leap and keep your mouth shut, because you don’t know what you are talking about.
Christian Kristalyn, Wellington, ON
Have his head examined
Just received your letter today and suggest Dr. P. have his head examined, because he’s certainly not in his right mind. The shark cartilage is doing very well for me. I have been on it for almost a year and would not even think of stopping. When I last saw my M.D. he asked how shark cartilage was behaving. When I told him, he replied “That’s good, glad to hear it. You have my full support.”

I totally disagree
Re: Letter you received from Dr. P. I want you to know that I totally disagree with Dr. P. For almost 10 years I tried all the things my doctor suggested. one drug was highly recommended and it relieved me partially, but the side effects of stomach trouble and bowel discomfort made me discontinue it. I then tried glucosamine, which has helped some. Then with Bell shark cartilage I found I could walk again without severe pain. I use now 2-4 capsules daily as a maintenance. Before using it, I was worried whether I’d be able to continue doing my housework. I am 78. He is brain washed and has a closed mind. Doctors like that do harm to suffering people, when they should be wanting to help. Thank you for an excellent product.

What he says is a lie
In regards to the letter you received from Dr. P. Abviously this Dr. P. has no idea what he is saying. After trying all kinds of other medications that would leave my stomach inflamed and these would act just as pain killers I decided on my own to give your shark cartilage a try and I couldn’t believe the difference it has made in my life. So I wouldn’t be afraid to tell this Dr. P. in his face. For eight years I had tried prescription drugs, gone to physics, chiropractors, you name it, and only shark cartilage has made me flexible and doing what I used to do. I will not give up shark cartilage, because this Dr. P. says it is a scam, because I know what he says is a lie.

What are you afraid of, Dr. P?
The real insanity is our over burdened health care system with doctors using old fashioned methods to treat millions of people in pain with harmful drugs. It is said that for every testimonial there are at least 200 happy customers, who never take time to write to say how satisfied they are. Well I am one in 200, and first of all I want to thank you so much for the help I received in using Bell shark cartilage, which has freed me from joint pain like nothing else has. My family doctor prescribed muscle relaxers, valium and pain killers. All these drugs only masked the problem and give temporary relief.

A few more excerpts:

  • I cannot believe that a man who professes to be a caring doctor would say something like that.
  • I feel when a doctor refuses to listen to his patients, he does not have much compassion.
  • Dr. P. I want to clearly state that after 30 years of arthritic pain, I have finally experienced at least 80% relief.
  • Dr. P. is rude to say Bell shark cartilage is a fraud or a scam, because it really helps people.
  • Dr. P. has a problem. There will always be a rotten apple. Every day, when anyone asks “How are you?” I say “I got rid of my arthrits!”
  • To me, a long suffering arthritic, it is just a ridiculous accusation for Dr. P. to proclaim shark cartilage a scam or an insanity or a fraud. Bell shark cartilage has given me my independence back and a PAIN FREE LIFE.
