Thats great thank you :fingerscr

I'm not sure, but I think that the tomato in it might act as a stool hardener, which means that the poop will hang around in the intestines longer and allow toxins to absorb. I guess it all depends how far you want to take the "bad ingredient" thing.

It would be much better if there was another meat meal as there are too many carbohydrates in the first five ingredients. Also, I found this about chicken cartilage as a glucosamine source:

Type II collagen was derived from purified chicken cartilage.

Question:
Whatever happened to the study of this treatment for arthritis? Approx. three years ago it was showing great promise. People in trials were having great results with it. It was talked about on NBC Nightly News and other programs. I remember seeing interviews with people who had RA and they were having remarkable results with it. This Type II collagen was derived from purified chicken cartilage. Has anyone heard anything? Maybe the pharmaceutical companies were unable to patent it?


Answer:
Good question, it raised my curiosity since I had once been following this story pretty closely. It is being developed by a company called
AutoImmune, Inc (ticker: AIMM). They once had some troubles in phase-II trials. I did some checking on the internet and found there is some recent news on them that they claim to have found the proper dosing and are about to begin phase-III trials in several cities across the country. For news and info (and to volunteer!), see their website:

When I did a web search I also ran across pages of companies offering recipes for the stuff as well as wanting to sell you it as a supplement.
