Possible meniscus problems, searching for cartilage nutrition

Ever wondered what cartilage gets fed by? Surely no blood because it doesn't have any blood vessels. But they lie in some lubricant fluid inside the articular capsule. I guess it works similar to the blood-brain barrier with the brain liquor beyond. Now, it must be possible to stimulate the transport of nutrients and oxygen or highten the permeability of the articular capsule. I don't want to study biochemistry and experiment for thirty years just to find it out myself, so I ask YOU!
1. Does any of you guys know about cartillage nutrition? 2. Are there aminoacids or other carbon based nutrients that are known for good articular permeability? 3. Are there any nutrients (also anorganic) which better the transport of nutrients inside the articular lubricant?
All serious comments are welcome also not directly helpful comments are very welcome, if they are based on science and reason and further the discussion to develop new pinpoints for experimentation.

I truly believe in the concept "like heals like", so I would suggest consuming bone broth on a regular basis.
http://doctorauer.com/benefits-of-bone-broth/ "When you ingest bone broth, it feeds the body with collagen, which is the building block of cells to bones, ligaments, cartilage and the brain. Gelatin, a form of collagen used in food, is used (among other benefits) to help digestion because the liquid gets absorbed into the body quickly and without much effort. Making bone broth excellent for people with food sensitivities and gastrointestinal disorders because it is usually very safe and tolerable for the body.
There are other virtues of bone broth. Bone marrow helps the immune system by carrying oxygen to cells in the body. Minerals such as calcium and phosphorus are essential for maintaining healthy bones and generating energy. And using cartilage-rich bones such as knuckles and chicken feet is said to be effective in treating arthritis and other degenerative joint diseases.
For example, people with Celiac disease who suffer from a variety of digestive problems due to an intolerance to gluten, often find bone broth is a way to superfeed the system without causing digestive discomfort. I have even started prescribing it to my patients who cannot digest supplements comfortably. In this example, the immune system has become so hyper-vigilant in attacking gluten stressors, that it may also attack beneficial foods such as celery, navy beans and chicken. The body uses the collagen and other connective tissues in the broth to rebuild the damaged tissues like the intestinal lining. In this way, the bone broth heals the gut without irritating the body.
When making your own tasty broth, bones, are readily available from your neighborhood butcher for very affordable prices. Be sure to use the bones and other materials from grass-fed beef, wild-caught fish, or pasture-raised chicken. This will ensure the fat in the broth is less inflammatory and of higher nutritional value. For more on how fat can be inflammatory"
http://www.westonaprice.org/childrens-health/soup-stenance "Also rendered from cartilage and tendons are chondroitin sulphate and glucosamine, nutrients with a stellar reputation for soothing arthritis and joint pain. Consuming “bone soup” every day will help tremendously in the repair and improvement of bone and tendon strength, skin, vessels, ligaments and cartilage"
