NEW ZEALAND GREENSHELL™ MUSSEL
CAPSULES
OIL EXTRACT IN CAPSULE
Greenshell™ Mussel Oil Extract is a pure, clean and natural oil extract manufactured from 100% sustainably farmed New Zealand Greenshell™ mussels (perna canaliculus).
Specialised analysis has identified over 25 different fatty acids in our Greenshell™ Mussel Oil Extract. Of these fatty acids, the long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) known as Omega 3’s comprise a significant proportion.
Thanks to decades of international research, the functional properties of Omega 3 fatty acids, particularly in the area of inflammation are widely understood. Clinical studies over this time have suggested benefits of Omega 3 oils for osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, asthma, heart disease, irritable bowel disease, and exercise induced mussel damage to name a few.
Greenshell™ Mussel Oil Extract contains between 20% and 40% total Omega 3 fatty acids including EPA and DHA.
POWDER IN CAPSULE
Greenshell™ mussel powder is a natural joint health supplement manufactured from sustainably farmed New Zealand Greenshell™ mussels (perna canaliculus).
The naturally occurring Omega 3 oils in Greenshell™ Green Lipped mussel powder play a major role in the proven anti-inflammatory activity of the product.
Greenshell™ mussel oil contains a high proportion of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), in particular the Omega 3 PUFA’s known as Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA).
Research over the past twenty years has also identified a series of novel Omega 3 fatty acids in Greenshell™ mussel oil with significant anti-inflammatory activity.
Greenshell™ mussel powder is carefully processed to protect these PUFA’s from oxidisation with typical total lipid levels of 10% of which 30% are Omega 3’s.
