When the body’s own cartilage production is insufficient to compensate for the continuous breakdown, due to old age or arthritis, supplementary use of bioactive components that make up cartilage has now proven itself. The synergistic combination of chondroitin and glucosamine has been proven highly effective on supporting joint function. E.F.S.-Holland supplies chondroitin sulphate extracted from poultry cartilage and glycosaminoglycans concentrated in green-lipped mussel powder. Through these external building blocks of cartilage tissue, the immune response is modulated in such a way that the occurrence of inflammatory processes is reduced. Simultaneously, the accelerated breakdown of tissue can be compensated against with the production of new cartilage.
Full fat GlycOmega GLM
For centuries, the Maori, the indigenous people of New Zealand, have recognised the beneficial effects of green-lipped mussel powder and used it for its medicinal properties. Now, as the world becomes increasingly interested in natural remedies, awareness of this superfood is growing exponentially. Cultivated exclusively in the pristine waters of New Zealand, GlycOmega GLM is best known for its potent anti-inflammatory bioactivity, in addition to an impressive range of functional health benefits. High in glucosamine and omega-3 fatty acids, this full-fat mussel powder not only provides support for joint pain, but can also stimulate muscle recovery, protect cartilage and improve overall health. Unlike low-fat varieties of green-lipped mussel powder, GlycOmega GLM retains all bioactive components as the oil has not been removed from the product. Full-fat without shell ensures maximum effect on human and animal health.
Sustainability and quality
The quality, origin and reputation of New Zealand mussel products are strictly protected to provide a guarantee of excellence to the market. In addition, involvement in voluntary environmental programmes highlights New Zealand mussel farmers’ commitment to sustainability and preservation of the (local) pristine environment. Thanks to sustainable aquaculture standards, this unique New Zealand product is recognised as one of the most environmentally friendly in the world.
Production process
The production of Avian Chondroitin and GlycOmega GLM is subject to strict requirements in terms of contaminants. Moreover, the production process is state-of-the-art. By using the latest extraction techniques, a stable and concentrated product is created without loss of biochemical structures. Through research into the effects of GlycOmega GLM and Avian Chondroitin on various health aspects of humans and animals, new opportunities are created for targeted applications to promote joint mobility and overall well-being.
