Product Information

Other reported adverse effects linked with green-lipped mussel supplements include fluid retention, nausea, and upset stomach ( 1). It was later determined that the mussels were a rich source of anti-inflammatory omega-3 fatty acids, especially eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) ( 2, 3, 4). you're breathing very fast or struggling to breathe (you may become very wheezy or feel like you're choking or gasping for air)

Studies done on both animals and in laboratories have shown that omega-3 fatty acids have anti-inflammatory properties that are key to maintaining joint cell structure and function. While less common, you can also find gels and creams that claim to ease joint pain and muscle soreness when applied to the skin.Furthermore, researchers have identified other types of fatty acids from the mussels. They may also possess anti-inflammatory effects by inhibiting enzymes and proteins that produce inflammation and pain ( 5, 6, 7). Another 8-week study in people with asthma found that a similar extract containing 400 mg of the mussel reduced asthma symptom frequency and airway inflammation when taken daily, compared with a placebo ( 11). As green-lipped mussels are a type of shellfish, you should avoid these supplements if you have a shellfish allergy or intolerance.

Adults: The dose of Suxamethonium is dependent on body weight, the degree of muscular relaxation required, the route of administration and the response of individual patients. To achieve endotracheal intubation Suxamethonium is usually administered intravenously in a dose of 1 mg/kg. This dose will usually produce muscular relaxation in about 30-60 seconds and has a duration of action of about 2-6 minutes. Supplementary doses of Suxamethonium of 50%-100% of the initial dose administered at 5-10 minutes intervals will maintain muscle relaxation during short surgical procedures performed under general anesthesia. For prolonged surgical procedures Suxamethonium may be given by intravenous infusion as a 0.1 %-0.2% solution, diluted in 5 % glucose solution or sterile isotonic saline solution, at a rate of 2.5 to 4 mg per minute. The infusion rate should be adjusted according to the response of individual patients. The total dose of Suxamethonium given by repeated intravenous injection or continuous infusion should not be exceeded 500 mg per hour.Keep these things in mind before trying a green-lipped mussel supplement, or talk with your doctor if you’re unsure whether this supplement is safe for you. Summary It is a pity I am allergic to these, (hence the four stars instead of five) because I would say they work very well when taken correctly and over time.” Green-lipped mussels naturally contain anti-inflammatory nutrients, such as Omega-3 fatty acids and Chondroitin Sulphate. They also contain several key vitamins and minerals. 3 It is a shame because they seem to work very well at controlling the inflammation and I can walk a lot more easier than I used to and my movements are much easier. In addition to these anti-inflammatory nutrients, the mussels are a good source of zinc and an excellent source of iron, selenium, and several B-vitamins ( 9). Summary

Due to its anti-inflammatory properties, green-lipped mussel extract has been claimed to reduce joint inflammation, helping relieve arthritis symptoms. The causes of ADHD remain largely unknown, but genetics are thought to play a significant role ( 22). Arthritis, which is characterized by painful swelling and stiffness in one or more of your joints, results from chronic inflammation. Because this is the only trial to date investigating the effects of a green-lipped mussel extract on ADHD symptoms, more research is necessary. SummaryDelayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) is characterized by muscle soreness and stiffness that occurs 24–48 hours after an intense or unfamiliar workout and can last for several days ( 17).
