Description Atlas & Tail Additions – Freeze Dried Green Lipped Mussel Powder 100g Green Lipped Mussel Powder is rich in anti-inflammatory properties which are beneficial in maintaining healthy joints and reducing the effects of arthritis. GLM powder builds healthy joints as they are enriched with glycosaminoglycans, one of such is chondroitin sulfate. Chondroitin strengthens the joint and improves shock absorption, resulting in less wear and tear. Green Lipped Mussel Powder is a safe and effective alternative from NSAIDs. GLM contain COX enzymes that offer the same anti-inflammatory benefits as NSAIDs. However, NSAIDs inhibit these enzymes and can have adverse effects on the stomach lining and harm liver cells. Green Lipped Mussels unlike NSAIDs, contain LOX (lipoxygenase) inhibitors – these enzymes help protect the stomach lining and liver from harm. Research has shown the benefits of using GLM as opposed to NSAIDs for effective relief from arthritis and maintaining healthy joints. For an effective GLM, it’s important to note the percentage, anything below 6% has been deemed ineffective through studies. It is these fatty acids that provide the anti-inflammatory benefits. Atlas & Tail fat percentage is 8.6% providing an abundance of fatty acids that work in reducing inflammation. Reduces inflammation – related to arthritis. Reduces joint-related pain.
