The Benefits

Pain-free play for your dog, even in their golden years

The Benefits

Joint Support

It is thought that the combination of nutrients working together may well be what makes Green-Lipped Mussel so effective towards aiding joints.

Exclusive to the Green-Lipped Mussel is eicosatetraenoic acid (ETA), an omega-3 fatty acid absent in oily fish. Scientific findings reveal that ETA has the remarkable ability to inhibit pain signals in the body, akin to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medicines, while notably avoiding the associated side effects.

  • Unique to the Green-Lipped Mussel is ETA

    A robust anti-inflammatory effect surpassing other omega-3 fatty acids.

  • Green-Lipped Mussel is high in omega-3 fatty acids

    Green-Lipped Mussel is high in omega-3 fatty acids.

The Benefits

Structural Repair

Cartilage is the soft ‘padding’ of the joint, which helps to protect the bones and keeps the joint smooth. So, Green-Lipped Mussel can help to maintain healthy joints.

Green-Lipped Mussel also contains glycosaminoglycans (you may have heard of glucosamine and chondroitin — these are both glycosaminoglycans). These form part of the ‘building blocks’ of cartilage.

  • Packed full of antioxidants

    Antioxidants can help to prevent, or reduce, some types of damage to cells in the body.

  • Rich in essential in minerals and vitamins

    These nutrients include vitamin C and E, zinc, magnesium, copper, and selenium.

The Benefits

Skin & Coat

Green-lipped mussel can be beneficial for a dog's coat primarily due to its rich content of omega-3 fatty acids, including EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid).

These essential fatty acids play a crucial role in promoting skin health and a lustrous coat. Omega-3s contribute to the maintenance of a strong and protective skin barrier, reducing dryness and itchiness.

  • Supports the natural production of oils

    Helping to create a shiny and well-nourished coat.

  • Natural source of marine collagen

    Collagen is essential for skin elasticity and strength.

Where do the benefits come from?

Green-Lipped Mussels are 100x more potent than fish oil
The Science

Harnessing a powerful symphony of omega-3s, antioxidants, and unique compounds.

When included as part of a balanced and nutritious diet, Green-Lipped Mussel can offer a holistic approach to supporting not just joint health but also the overall well-being of a dog, including the health and appearance of their coat.

  • Green-Lipped Mussel is high in omega-3 fatty acids

    Omega-3 fatty acids are well known for their anti-inflammatory properties.

The Science

Structural Repair

Green-lipped mussels are packed with glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), crucial components of cartilage and synovial fluid within joints. Chondrocytes and local tissues synthesise GAGs, playing a vital role in stabilising joints and offering shock absorption.

GAGs are intricate amino sugars, some with phosphate or sulphate groups that enhance water absorption into the cartilage matrix. This hydration process, vital for joint lubrication and shock absorption, tends to decrease with age. Maintaining proper hydration is critical for joint function. If GAGs are lost, joints may become stiffer, increasing the risk of injury.

  • Provides essential compounds for natural protection

    Contributes to GAG synthesis with chondroitin sulphates and other building blocks.

  • Aided by reducing Inflammation

    Powerful antioxidants, reduce inflammation to facilitate repair.

The Science

Skin & Coat

Omega-3s promote joint health, a shiny coat, assist with maintaining good cholesterol, and can even help alleviate skin issues in dogs

Omega-3s play a crucial role in maintaining healthy skin and coat in dogs. These fatty acids support the skin's natural barrier function, helping to prevent dryness and flakiness. Additionally, omega-3s promote the production of oils that contribute to a shiny, lustrous coat, enhancing the overall appearance and condition of your dog's fur.

  • Rich source of Omegas

    Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and ETA (Eicosatetraenoic acid)

  • Can provide natural allergy relief

    Helps ease allergy symptoms and reduce itching and discomfort

    We've been using Joint & Mobility for a few weeks now, and while we haven't seen any dramatic changes, we do feel like our dog seems a bit more comfortable during walks. It's hard to say for sure, but we'll continue to monitor his progress and hope for further improvement.
