Any suggestions for rebuilding cartilage naturally? The allopaths are pressuring my 74 year old Type A Mom to have hip replacement surgery, because her cartilage is completely worn away. She also has a severe case of Paget's Disease, and is scheduled for spinal surgery next week to relieve her Stenosis. She is slowly trying some of the "A" Diet. We tried Glucosamine Sulfate last year, but I think she had an allergic reaction to it, so she stopped taking it. It didn't seem to be helping much anyway. Wonder if Chondroitin Sulfate alone, Boswellia, or anything else can rebuild cartilage? Thanks in advance for any input.
