Like all other cells in the human body, the cartilage cells (in the knees, elbows, ankles, etc.) can be regenerated.

Here are nine important things you can do that will help to commence/accelerate this process:

  • Drink two-thirds of your body weight in ounces of natural spring or filtered water each day. (E.g., a person weighing 150 pounds will drink 100 fluid ounces of water.).
  • Increase organic vitamin C intake. Vitamin-C rich-herbs include:
    • Camu camu fruit (Myrciaria dubia)
    • Rosehips (Rosa canina)
    • Amla berry (Phyllanthus emblica)
    • Acerola cherry (Malpighia glabra)
    • Kakadu plum (Terminalia ferdinandiana)
    • Hibiscus flower (Hibiscus sabdariffa)
  • Expose your body to sunlight to stimulate vitamin D-production (this is of vital importance vital for connective tissue/cartilage regeneration)
  • Consume lysine-rich foods (lysine blocks enzymes that break down collagen), such as:
    • Almonds/almond butter
    • Pistachio nuts
    • Sunflower seeds
    • Chia seeds
    • Fenugreek seeds
    • Watercress
    • Baby spinach
    • Purple kale.
  • Drink lots of freshly-pressed juice containing calcium-rich leafy greens
  • Consume calcium-rich herbs such as:
    • Alfalfa leaf (Medicago sativa)
    • Oatstraw (Avena sativa)
    • Moringa leaf (Moringa oleifera)
    • Nettle leaf (Urtica dioica)
    • Horsetail (Equisetum arvense)
  • Eliminate all animal products and grains which produce highly acidic-ashes and excessive amounts of uric acid that hinder tissue regeneration.
  • Eat plenty of foods that are rich in plant sterols (plant fats), such as coconut flesh/meat, avocados, olives, nuts and seeds. Small amounts of Coconut oil (raw).
  • Drink ¼–⅓ tsp. of Cayenne Pepper (Capsicum annuum) powder (should be at least 150K SHU) in water 2–3 times a day to boost blood flow to the joints. [Do not drink on an empty stomach.]
