What is gelatine?
THREE GELATINE CHAINS
Gelatine is a hydrolyzed form of collagen. What does that mean? Individual collagen fibres in the body are bound together by chemical bonds to make up cartilage and other tissues (like skin) in the body. In the preparation of gelatine it is these crosslinks that must be first be broken down (hydrolysis). It can be easily done in the home, forming a a semi-solid colloid gel: Gelatin.
Water binding properties
The beauty of gelatine in the body is that it holds water making it the perfect material for building healthy cartilage. The first sign of degenerating cartilage is the loss of this water.

Notice how the degenerating disc above is far darker than the normal discs - that's because it has lost its water-carrying capacity.
You can also see how the water may seep into the bone - called a Modic effect, or change - which is the sign of deep bone pain. This cannot be seen by your chiropractor, unless he has a scan - it's not visible on ordinary 'plain' X-rays - and may explain why your back is still aching long after the joint subluxations have been corrected. Gelatin powder has also been claimed to promote general joint health. One study for example found that gelatin relieved knee joint pain and stiffness in athletes. What is not well understood is why gelatine powder, the foundation of cartilage, should relieve arthritic pain. Once in the stomach, gelatine powder is broken down into its constituent amino acids, and then reconstituted into cartilage in the bones. Never mind, just accept that it works! For an ulcerSeveral researchers found that gelatin reinforces the stomach mucous lining. It has been found to reduce the damage to the stomach wall by alcohol and stress, halving the size of ulcers.Instead of buying your Gelatine Powder ... Make your own gelatine in the home.
