Supplementing with natural minerals protects cartilage and improves moderate knee osteoarthritis. Abstract Objective:   The primary aim of this trial was to determine whether Natural Mineral Concentrate Solution (NMCS) acts as a cartilage-protective agent by assessing the WOMAC score, 6-minute walk distance (6MWD) without pain, and the need for rescue analgesics. Methodology:   A double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized trial was conducted in 100 patients with moderate kn
