I haven't used it myself, but my wife now takes it regularly and has since got rid of many other 'painkillers'. I can therefore only recommend that you at least give it a try if you have pain (joint, rheumatism etc.).
I give it to my 2 old dogs who like to eat it and it is visibly good for them. Excellent value for money and delivery! 100 points from me :-)
Finally ordered and arrived today. I started using it straight away and am now curious to see if it has any effect. I have osteoarthritis in my knees. I can't say anything about it yet, but I will write another review in a few weeks.
The green-lipped mussel or greenshell mussel, which is similar to the common mussel, has presumably been used as food by the New Zealand Maori for thousands of years. New Zealand offers the ideal environmental conditions for green-lipped mussels, and is the only place where these molluscs occur in nature.
In addition to omega-3 fatty acids and minerals such as sodium, potassium, calcium and silicon, the mussel with the green coloring around the edges of its shell that gives it its name also contains glycosaminoglycans. These are building blocks of healthy joint cartilage and are therefore considered as nutrients for the joints.
Green-lipped mussels intended for use in high-quality dietary supplements such as Green Lipped Mussel 500 mg capsules, are grown in aquaculture facilities in New Zealand. The water there provides the perfect environment for pollutant- and additive-free cultivation. The quality of the water and the cultivated mussels is constantly monitored by laboratories at the mussel farms and by independent institutes.
No artificial feed or additives, medication or pesticides are used in the cultivation process. The purity is monitored by chemical and microbiological analyses. By complying with the requirements of strict environmental management systems, the cultivation of green-lipped mussels meets all the criteria of ecological sustainability. The mussel populations in the wild are protected and remain untouched.
The flesh of the mussels is gently freeze-dried and processed into a powder. This ensures that the delicate nutrients are preserved. The powder is filled in Germany in accordance with the HACCP approach and tested again for harmful substances.
This is why Green Lipped Mussel 500 mg capsules from Vitality Nutritionals are guaranteed of the highest quality and purity.
The green-lipped mussel contains omega-3 fatty acids, glycosaminoglycans (GAG) and valuable minerals and trace elements such as sodium, potassium, calcium and silicon.
Glycosaminoglycans are the body’s own building blocks of healthy joint cartilage, but can also be found in connective tissue. They are responsible for the high viscosity of the synovial fluid.
The glycosaminoglycans contained in the green-lipped mussel are nutrients that can be used particularly well in the context of joint metabolism, as they exhibit a high affinity to the basic building blocks of synovial fluid and joint cartilage. As early as 1998, a study indicated that green-lipped mussel powder and green-lipped mussel extract could provide support for joint problems. [1]
Omega-3 fatty acids are essential fatty acids and fulfill a variety of functions in the body. In the green-lipped mussel, Australian scientists have identified unique, previously unknown omega-3 fatty acids.
Green-lipped mussel capsules are ideal for those who want to provide support to their joints with important nutrients. This is often the case particularly for older people with limited mobility and athletes under increased strain.
Yes. Those allergic to fish, seafood and mussel protein should refrain from taking Vitality Nutritionals green-lipped mussel capsules.
No. Vitality Nutritionals Green Lipped Mussel 500 mg capsules contain green lipped mussel powder. The green-lipped mussel is a mollusc. In addition, the capsule shell consists of bovine gelatine.
Green-lipped mussels are considered to be well tolerated. However, those allergic to fish, seafood and mussel protein should refrain from taking food supplements containing green-lipped mussel or green-lipped mussel powder or extract.
Green-lipped mussel capsules are not suitable for children and adolescents.
During pregnancy and while breastfeeding, a physician should generally be consulted before consuming dietary supplements.
