Grown in clean water in New Zealand, mussels grow along ropes where they soak up phytoplankton from the water.\u00a0Phytoplankton grows from sunlight, so their mussels don&#8217;t have to compete for their food source with marine life. As a bonus, by controlling phytoplankton it in turn manages algae blooms.<br \/>\nWhile most fish oils only contain two fatty acids, Green Lipped Mussel Oil contains 30!\u00a0According to a study published in &#8220;Inflammopharmacology&#8221; in 1997, the phospholipids in mussel oil make it\u00a0158 times more effective than fish oil.\u00a0Green Lipped Mussels are one of the only generous sources of an important anti-inflammatory omega-3 called ETA, <strong><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #008000;\">which can help regenerate cartilage in a dog with arthritis.<\/span><\/strong><\/div>\n<div>They pair it with Ahi Flower, which is\u00a0a powerful plant, rich in omega fatty acids.
