The Health Benefits of Green Lipped Mussel

Green lipped mussels are commonly found in the oceans off New Zealand. The Maori people have been eating the mussels for centuries. They are a rich source of vitamins, minerals and proteins, but the Maori also discovered that the green lipped mussels had medicinal properties.

Modern scientists have since verified their beliefs and found through clinical studies that these mussels are extremely powerful and effective when it comes to treating inflammation and any inflammation related disease.

Apart from benefiting a whole list of health concerns most impressive results have been reported when treating joint pains, arthritis and heart diseases.

Seeing the growth in popularity, many companies have started marketing their own version of GLM, some of high qualities and others barely contain more than cheap fillers and only just about enough GLM to be able to market it as such.

The 2 ingredients you should be on the look out for is a lipid extract and the GLM in freeze dried powder form, where the extract is possible mixed with other arthritis treatments.

Most important though is that you should try and buy a stabilized form of GLM which has proven to be much more potent than the non stabilized form, such as for example this green lipped mussel supplement.

Please remember that this product is obtained from mussels so if you are allergic to shellfish, you should stay clear from green lipped mussels!
