Is green lipped mussel better than fish oil?
Yes. Studies have shown that green lipped mussel is far more potent than other plant and fish oil extracts currently used to relieve inflammation associated with arthritis. Green lipped mussel contains unique omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids with potent anti-inflammatory properties that are not found in fish oil. Green lipped mussel also contains glucosamine, chondroitin, magnesium, zinc and other compounds such as eicosatetraenoic acid, which when combined with omega-3 oils could cumulatively be more effective at easing joint pain than if they were taken as individual supplements.
Is green lipped mussel an anti-inflammatory?
Yes. Green lipped mussel contains several components that have potent anti-inflammatory properties.

Studies have shown that the potent anti-inflammatory agents in green lipped mussel can actually reduce stomach ulcers caused by conventional pain medications used to treat arthritis.

My 8-year-old Red Heeler started struggling to stand up and was whining in the morning when she came out from under the bed.
I started her on Green Lipped Mussels about two weeks ago, and I CANNOT believe the difference. She is getting around better and has stopped moping.
I was really concerned about putting her on a prescription. This has made an incredible difference.
