What is NZ Pure Health Green Lipped Mussel?
Green-lipped mussel (Perna canaliculus) is a New Zealand shellfish, from which an extract has been shown to be useful in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and osteoarthritis (OA).
Green-lipped mussel inhibits inflammation in the body. Although inflammation is normal under certain conditions, consistent or excessive inflammation can result in pain and damage to the body, including the joints. The human body makes several chemical mediators for inflammation. Levels of these chemicals in the body may be higher in people with RA who are experiencing symptoms than in symptom-free people with arthritis.


Research on green-lipped mussel has thus far focused on OA and RA. Although some studies have failed to demonstrate the therapeutic benefits of green-lipped mussel in people with arthritis, the outcomes of other studies have been more positive. In one trial, both freeze-dried powder and lipid extract of green-lipped mussel were effective at reducing symptoms in 70% of people with OA and 76% of people with RA. A similar study of people with either OA or RA showed green-lipped mussel reduced pain in 50% and 67% of the patients, respectively, after three months of supplementation.

In 1986, dried mussel extracts became available that were stabilised with a preservative. The earlier studies that found no beneficial effect of green-lipped mussel on arthritis all used preparations that had not been stabilised, a point that may help explain some of the discrepancies in the research. One recent animal study compared the two forms and found a stabilised lipid extract to be significantly more effective than a nonstabilised extract at inhibiting inflammation. Because both forms are currently available on the market, it may be prudent to check on the form.

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatories (NSAIDs), such as aspirin and ibuprofen, are often used for inflammatory conditions. However, most of these medications can produce the unfortunate side effect of stomach irritation, which may lead to stomach ulcers if taken frequently. One animal study found that green-lipped mussel significantly reduced stomach ulcers resulting from taking NSAIDs.

Seem to be working well

I bought these for myself, and the pet version for my dog, as we're both not as young as we were. We each take two a day, and they definitely seem to be having a positive effect. After a walk, neither of us are showing any sign of stiffness and for myself, my head seems a lot clearer than it used to after menopause. If you don't like the smell of fish, keep the little sachet in the bottle. It stops the smell from escaping. There is no after taste from the tablets and they're easy to swallow, though not that small. I would recommend both the human and pet varieties.

They work.
Many thanks.

Awesome product!

Both my husband and I have back issues, and after so many years we have been learning about what is in the "modern medicine " we decided that we do not want to fill our bodies with chemicals to get through the day. My friend told me about the green lipped mussel and I figured, why not? We cannot believe the difference it makes with our inflammation! We have shared it with a few people and they feel the same. Here is a chemical freeway to reduce the pain. And I love that there are no fillers. These are a great natural way to find relief.

Could be a wonder treatment

I recently was told that I had osteoarthritis so I thought I would try green,lipped mussel as I have been giving a similar product to my dogs over the last 3 generations and none of them (that’s 6 dogs) have had any problems with arthritis. I started taking these capsules a couple of months ago and the pain has all but gone. I’m not sure if it’s the green lipped mussel but it seems more than a coincidence.

Green Lipid Mussel Extract

Good results using consistently. I use for five days and back off for two days. Using two capsules now and I am feeling noticeable results. Please keep your quality high because that makes all the difference. Thank you.
