What is Green Lipped Mussel Extract?
Perna Extract from New Zealand’s Green Lipped Mussel is a multi-functional and natural product which has significant success in benefiting a number of joint and muscle related problems. Pernaton uses a unique cold extraction process which does not use heat, chemicals or solvents, allowing all valuable nutrients to remain contained. Although this is expensive, it ultimately leads to a superior product with the highest content of nutrients compared to other products on the market. The extract is then freeze dried to ensure quality and purity, before being milled to produce a fine powder extract. 

How does Pernaton help the musculoskeletal system?

For more than 20 years, the Original Perna Extract (the New Zealand Green Lipped Mussel) has been the main ingredient in all Pernaton products and is naturally rich in essential nutrients and building substances for the optimal function of the musculoskeletal system. This includes:

  • Chondroitin, glucosamine and hyaluronic acid which are natural components of the connective tissue, ligaments and joint cartilage and thus support their function.
  • Long-chain omega-3 fatty acids which protect the blood vessels and help the body to inhibit inflammation in the joints.
  • 18 vital amino acids which are needed for the production of proteins and body tissue (skin, hair, muscles) and are of central importance for almost all of the body’s own metabolic processes.
  • 11 different minerals which build up bones, teeth, hormones and blood cells, maintain tissue tension, transmit stimuli and/or activate enzymes.
  • 8 vitamins which strengthen the immune system and are vital for the development of cells, blood cells, bones, cartilage, connective tissue and teeth.

Only products with the original Perna extract label on the packaging contain original Perna extract.
