Those who have experienced problems in joints know firsthand how much pain is caused by any movement, how hard it is to walk during the day and how difficult it is to fall asleep at night when pains increase. Not so long ago in pharmacies and on the Internet appeared a new miracle cream "Shark fat" for the joints, designed to relieve the suffering and return the joy of a full life. Around this magical means a large-scale advertising campaign is launched, which results in the high popularity of Shark Fat and even some excitement among consumers. People buy the cream at a price ten times higher than its face value. Let's try to figure out whether such expenses are justified and put on the medium of hope.
Raw material for cream
To begin with, I want to say a few words about the unique animals, thanks to which we have a cream of pain in the joints "Shark Fat".It's about sharks. Scientists have long paid attention to the characteristics of their body. So, the sharks in the body do not have a single bone. They are replaced by cartilages, perfectly coping with huge loads during movement and under high pressure of the water column. Such features of shark cartilage are widely used in medicine. The liver of these fish is also unusual. It is very large, it takes about 1/3 of the mass of their body and approximately 70% consists of fat. The shark synthesizes the organism and accumulates it as an energy reservoir. The composition of shark fat scientists surprised. It found such valuable substances:
- squalene;
- squalamine;
- alkoxyglycerides;
- some vitamins( D, A, E) and microelements;
is alkoglycerol.
The unique composition and richness of the components of liver fat helps sharks to exist on Earth for millions of years, staunchly enduring all natural disasters.
Why is squalene useful?
Based on the fat of the shark liver, the "Shark Fat" cream is produced for the joints. Reviews of many people who have tried it, note the reduction of pain, improvement of the skin. Such an effect is given by the substances contained in the shark fat. We will get acquainted with them in more detail.
Squalene is a hydrocarbon belonging to the carotenoid group. By the way, it is not only in shark oil, but also in olive, linseed, cottonseed oils, in sprouted wheat grains and other plant tissues, in many microorganisms. Its function is to improve and normalize the metabolism. It also plays an important role in the synthesis of steroids - substances with high biological activity.
What is useful for squalamine?
This element is not very common in nature. In addition to sharks, it was found only in the body of lamprey. Squalamine is an aminosterol, characterized by high antimicrobial activity. His work is based on the physical properties of the substance and consists in the destruction of the membranes of bacteria, microbes and some parasitic fungi. Squalamine is a part of many antibacterial and antifungal agents, intended for both internal and external use. In fact, it is a natural antibiotic that plays an important role in the healing properties that a miracle cream has. Ointment "Shark fat" for the joints, thanks to the squalamine contained in it, helps the early healing of wounds. Now this substance has learned to produce artificially, without killing for it sharks.
Why are alkoxy glyceride and alkogricerol useful?
As for the value of these substances, scientists do not yet have a common opinion. Alkoxyglycerides are a special kind of glycerolipids. A complex name indicates that their composition includes glycerin and lipids, necessary for the normal operation of any organism. In addition to sharks, this substance is found in the liver of other fish( burbot, catfish, cod and others), and in all of us known cow's milk. The greatest percentage is found in the bone marrow, liver, spleen, that is, in the organs responsible for hematopoiesis. On the Internet, especially in promotional materials, one can find allegations that alkoxyglycerides are a unique remedy for thousands of diseases, in particular they help with irradiation, slow down aging, fantastically strengthen immunity, and perform other magical actions. With this ingredient, capsules of shark fat for oral administration are produced, and not only ointments for external use, such as "Shark Fat" cream for joints. The doctors' comments about their effect are nevertheless rather cautious, since the effect of alkoxigricerides on human health is still undergoing laboratory and clinical trials. For example, in experimental mice, taking them inside, especially in high doses, caused undesirable changes in the structure of the liver( tissue proliferation).
Alkoglicerol also belongs to the group of glycerolipids widely used in medicine. Creams and ointments based on it soften the skin, improve the metabolic processes in it.
Vitamins and microelements
Everybody knows about the benefits of these substances. In brief, we repeat that vitamin A is extremely important for the work of the whole organism, and in joints it is responsible for the full growth of cartilage and is indispensable if there are degenerative changes in the joint tissues. Vitamin D paired with calcium work on the strength of bones. Vitamin E helps to quickly repair arthritic joints. No less valuable and trace elements are copper, calcium, iron, manganese. All of them are included in the cream "Shark fat" for the joints, which determines its usefulness.
In addition, the cream contains fatty polyunsaturated acids( omega-3), which play an important role in the work of the heart, vessels, and also with arthritis. These acids can be obtained only from the outside, since they are not produced in the body. In addition to shark fat, omega-3 is found in fish oil, seafood, flax seed and some oils.

The presence of shark fat in creams does not mean that this product will help to cope with absolutely any joint disease.

Cream "Shark fat" for joints: reviews
On the Internet you can find many reviews in which people enthusiastically write about the healing effect produced by the cream "Shark fat", and with a variety of additives. The noted advantages:
- well relieves pain;
- easy to apply;
- it does not smell;
- inexpensive and affordable.
However, there are some who have not been helped by the "Shark fat" cream for joints. The responses of these people are quite negative. Among the shortcomings noted, only one is inefficiency.
In this regard, we can say the following: there are various diseases of the joints, and each of them has different stages. Probably, it is not entirely correct to expect that the same tool in each case will have the same effect. And it is completely wrong to replace medications and other types of joints with a cream with shark fat. This means acts only as an auxiliary, additional.
In conclusion, I want to say a few words about the price of the drug. In any pharmacy the cost of creams based on shark fat does not exceed 200 rubles, and more often varies within 70-90 rubles. Unfair businessmen who charge a price of 1,000 rubles for one tube of "Shark Fat" cream offer the same product with the same curative effect.
