How Dr. Stephen Bittiker Accelerated Healing of His Torn Knee Cartilage

On his recent cruise, Dr. Stephen Bittiker climbed up a mountain, in St. Martin, to take pics from a French fort. He took some wonderful pics, but tore a cartilage in one of his knees. Only 1 week later, the pain is down by 80 to 90% and range of motion has increased to 80 to 90%. Supplements that he took for one week after the injury included:

• Naturally Vitamins, Wobenzym clear coated tablets
  German research done on athletes show it accelerates the healing of damaged tissue by 400%. He took 6 tablets, 3 times a day, on an empty stomach (at least 45 minutes before a meal).
  
  
• Now Foods, Bovine Cartilage, 750 mg, caps - He took 4 capsules (3,000 mg), 3 times a day, with meals.
  
  
• Jarrow Formulas Hyaluronic Acid Complex, 50 mg, caps - He took 4 capsules (200 mg), 3 times a day, with meals. Vegetarian form doesn't work - molecular size is too large. HA made from rooster comb, such as Jarrow Formulas, works great - Dr. Bittiker recommendation and my personal experience. This is what glucosamine is trying to make in your body. That's why glucosamine is not on this list! After 1 week, 1 capsule with each meal.
  
  
• Vitamin C - He took 6,000 mg a day.
  
  
• "Metagenics - Kaprex - 90 Tablets"
  Kaprex is an herbal supplement for natural joint relief that is easy on the GI tract.
