(b). Cartilogen consists of all the necessary constituents of this
important material, and under certain circumstances it must be
introduced in this concentrated form, as for instance when the general
diet is unable to counteract the influences of disease which tends to
degenerate the cartilage and subjects the body to the great suffering
which the absence of cartilage invariably produces.

(c). Cartilage keeps all the joints in working order and must be
regenerated constantly.

As soon as the blood and lymph no longer contain the proper, necessary
constituents for the rebuilding of cartilage tissue, the consequence is
degeneration of this tissue.

It is obvious then that the presence of proper cartilage constituents in
the blood is of the greatest importance to the regenerating forces in
the human body. Our foodstuffs, therefore, must contain the material in
a digestible, assimilable form, thus to prevent inanition of the cells,
otherwise degeneration of the cartilage tissue must follow.

(d). _Dose_: One gram or one-fourth of a heaping teaspoonful twice a day
for a certain period, depending on the condition of the patient. This
may be taken in the same manner as previously described.
