Product details
Origins and benefits of New Zealand green-lipped mussel
In 1974, scientists in Britain and the USA conducted research on remedies for cancers. Green-lipped Mussel has been a major natural part of the human diet for many centuries. By chance, the research found that it had limited effects on cancer, but had huge potential as a natural remedy for arthritis. Since then, a great deal of research has been carried globally that indicates that green-lipped mussel and their extracts are able to relieve multiple symptoms of arthritis compared to more conventional anti-inflammatory drugs.
Green Lipped Mussels positive impact on joints
Once the health benefits of Green Lipped Mussel were discovered science quickly became involved. After over 30 years of research and clinical experience, Green Lipped Mussel extract is recognised as one of the most effective natural anti-inflammatory and joint mobility supplements available.
Derived from steam-opened green lipped mussel meat:
Provides a rich source of all major classes of Glycosaminoglycans (GAGS), which are principal components of cartilage and the synovial fluid found in joints. --Significantly increases flexibility, elasticity and tensile strength to the articular cartilage. --High natural anti-inflammatory activity. GlycOmega™ -has been found to have equal or greater anti-inflammatory activity as aspirin. --Natural source of protein and omega-3 fatty acids. --Contains natural antioxidant properties.
Significantly improved nutrient concentrations that GlycOmega-PLUSTM retains versus traditional GSMP steamed-opened Greenshell Mussel Powder.
At the end of eight weeks, my knees were almost completely pain-free. I would recommend Greenshell Mussel to anyone with knee pain. Trial participant, Queensland, Australia
I started using Greenshell Mussel Oil after an old sports injury flared up again and have noticed a far quicker response with rehab this time. Now my ankle is in tip top shape again, a result that wouldn't have been possible so quickly without the good oil. Thanks! Darcy, Dunedin
