The green-lipped mussel (Perna canaliculus) is a species of edible shellfish. They contain numerous amino acids, the building blocks of body proteins, in addition to enzymes and essential trace elements. The minerals they contain are present in a balance similar to that in blood plasma, and these minerals are naturally chelated by the amino acids, making for better assimilation into the body.
Sea mussel aids in the functioning of the cardiovascular system, the lymphatic system, the endocrine system, the eyes, connective tissues, and mucous membranes. They help to reduce inflammation and relieve the pain and stiffness of arthritis. They also promote the healing of wounds and burns.
Warning: If you are allergic to shellfish, do not take this product.

FoodScience of Vermont's Sea Mussel is a natural product from the sea that has exceptional ability to aid the body in halting the progression of joint and connective tissue problems as well as promoting the regeneration and healing of arthritic and injured joints. Sea Mussel is produced from Perna canaliculus, a marine bivalve mussel produced commercially in pristine waters off New Zealand.
Research at several universities is now revealing how Sea Mussel can function to rebuild and repair inflamed and damaged joints and connective tissue. By providing natural anti-inflammatory agents and many essential building blocks needed to rebuild the collagen, proteoglycans and synovial fluid found in joints, ligaments and tendons, Perna can reverse years of damage caused by arthritic conditions. Perna can significantly reduce the pain, swelling and inflammation associated with connective tissue and musculoskeletal problems.

Perna mussel has been used successfully to treat degenerative joint disorders for over 20 years in both human and veterinary health fields. Perna has been found beneficial in reducing pain, stiffness and inflammation in the afflicted areas as well as increasing joint mobility. Anecdotal reports from many practicing veterinarians have confirmed the clinical efficacy in treating degenerative joint disease in both dogs and horses. One practicing physician in New Mexico has reported that many of his patients have not had to undergo knee surgery since Perna was added to their therapeutic program to treat Osteoarthritis. After six to nine months on the product, radiographic evidence (x-rays) have confirmed that connective tissue and cartilage had begun to regenerate in the afflicted joints of his patients. These results show that Perna represents a significant and beneficial treatment program for both Rheumatoid and Osteoarthritis.
