Green Lip Mussel Scientifically Proven Effectiveness

There were numerous arguments regarding whether the highly concentrated nutrients present in New Zealand’s green lip mussels truly have an affirmative effect on such illnesses as inflammation. The good news is that two recently concluded researches seem to stand with the fact that greenlip mussels indeed bring about health benefits to those who take it everyday as a daily supplement.

The first research from the Australian RMIT University centered on omega-3 fatty acids in extracts of the Perna canaliculus or green lip mussel. The omega-3s were discovered to inhibit the activity of leukotriene and cyclo-oxygenase, both substances which are associated with inflammation.

The researchers narrowed down as well the advantageous effect to the presence of fatty acids and triglyceride fractions which occur naturally in the green mussels. They also concluded that using potassium hydroxide and protease enzymes elevated these effects.

In the second research from RMIT University, it was detected that New Zealand mussels have a specific type of omega-3 fatty acid. The green lip mussels’ omega-3 acids contain prostaglandins and they were proved to be particularly anti-inflammatory.

Along with a high amount of lipids and omega-3s, they also have such nutrients as betain, iron, and glycoaminoglycans, which include chondroitin sulphate. These substances have proved direct effect on inflammation and staving off pain in the joints due to inflammation from arthritis and a variety of other ills.

The extract from green lip mussels is a natural product and sure enough it is not harmful to the human body. Now, researches support the effectiveness as a supplement of the green lip mussel extract to bring us healthier bones and prevent inflammation.
