Green-lipped mussel for cats

The green-lipped mussel is known for its benefits in osteoarticular health, valued by pet owners as well as veterinarians. Its effect is attributed to its high content of omega-3 fatty acids, such as eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosatetraenoic acid (ETA). These fatty acids are known for their anti-inflammatory properties and may help reduce inflammation associated with diseases such as osteoarthritis. It also contains glycosaminoglycans, which provide a chondroprotective action, helping to maintain and protect the integrity of the joint cartilage, preserving the mobility and flexibility of the joints, especially in older cats or those prone to joint problems. The green-lipped mussel is a natural source of taurine. Taurine is an essential amino acid, meaning it must be ingested through diet.Its deficiency can have consequences on the cat's well-being.
