Inflammation and Arthritis – Green-Lipped Mussel Oil Gives Relief

Inflammation and Arthritis are very closely connected. Inflammation is not necessarily arthritis but arthritis is always paired with inflammation.

Whenever and wherever damage occurs in our body it will call upon white blood cells to come and repair the damage. It’s our immune system reacting to any unusual occurrence in our body.

When we have arthritis the protective tissue around the joint bones wears thin and eventually the bones will rub against each other which will cause damage to them.

The blood flow to the damaged spot will increase and the white cells and their chemicals will try to repair the damage. Wherever there is a large gathering of white blood cells there will be inflammation.  That specific spot will feel hot and often look s swollen.

If the white cells at that location cannot repair the damage the immune system will call up more white cells and send them there.  This might just make the inflammation worse and more painful.

Doctors might suggest NSAID or they will prescribe some anti inflammatory drugs. NSAID stands for Non Steroidal Anti Inflammatory Drugs.  They’re often over the counter drugs like aspirin, ibuprofen etc. Those medications can cause stomach problems. Especially when they are taken for a prolonged period of time.

The prescribed drugs might have dangerous side effects.  Those side effects are usually only experienced by a small percentage of the patients they were prescribed for.  But why take a chance?  You won’t know till you go through the experience and it can be life threatening, sometimes.

Green-lipped mussel oil is known to really relief the pain of arthritis. The Omega 3 fatty acids in that mussel are extremely anti inflammatory.

This oil is derived from the green-lipped mussel or Perna Canaliculus.

This mussel is found off the coast of South Island, New Zealand. The natives on the island gather these mollusks and eat them regularly as a delicacy.  In order to get at these mussels they have to climb over the slippery coastal rocks.

Elderly men, in their seventies and eighties, clamber around those rocks with the same agility as their sons and grandsons.  No signs of stiff knees, no sign of arthritis.

After some studies by the research community it was determined that eating the green-lipped mussels prevented arthritis to develop.  Everybody was arthritis free.

Many people have been helped by this product. It has  given thousands of people relief from the pain and discomfort associated with this disease.

You can take this product to prevent or otherwise fight the discomfort and pain of inflammation and arthritis
