Gastro-Intestinal Protection

Getting older, many people fight back against the accumulating aches and pains. They take over-the-counter pain-blunting aspirin and stronger drugs to treat the joint pain. Additionally they may take numerous supplements as well as prescription drugs to protect organ systems like the cardiovascular. Yet intake of multiple substances can create a toxic build-up and unexpected side effects.

There is a better way to enjoy a longer life, one that does not require a bulging shelf of drugs and supplements taken daily. Yes there is! It is a natural nutritional food farmed in the pristine waters off the coast of Marlborough, New Zealand. Packed into easy-to-swallow capsules is one of the world's best sources for omega-3 fatty acids, and mucopolysaccharides to reduce joint aches and pains and to protect gastric and intestinal linings.

Our natural product Neptone that comes from the sea is chock of omega-3 essential fatty acids DHA and EPA, mucopolysaccharides like chondroitin sulfate, as well as natural vitamins, minerals, and essential amino acids. Neptone is our nutritional product made from the flesh of selected New Zealand green-lipped mussels. It is unique and complete as a natural product that is flash-heated and spray-dried, locking in the best that shellfish can offer to consumers. We heartily comment our product for your consideration, especially when you take a drug like Ibuprofen (Advil©) for joint pain, or take aspirin daily to protect your heart. Reducing pain is important as is taking aspirin to thin the blood. However, frequent use of aspirin and non-aspirin non-steroidal drugs like Ibuprofen are not without health risks.

The latest research reports show definite links between aspirin and aspirin-like drugs and erosion of the stomach and duodenal linings. For example, the risk of bleeding ulcers is 3-5 greater on users of aspirin and non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) like Ibuprofen. These dangers tend to bias many consumers remaining free from drugs that can damage their gastrointestinal track. Less well known are facts about acute and chronic use of aspirin and NSAIDs cam alter permeability of the intestinal mucosa. The result of a damaged lining can be passage through the gut walls of bacteria, antigens, degradation products and proteolytic enzymes. The release of these substances into blood an lymph channels can weaken organs of the body distant from the gut including the brain and central nervous system. green-lipped mussel powder can reduce the dangers of stomach and intestinal ulcers in users of aspirin and NSAIDs -- although granted that long-term double-blind clinical studies have yet to be completed.

Yet studies in the laboratory during the past 30 years have indicated how green-lipped mussel powder can "strikingly reduce gastric ulcergenicity in several non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs." The precise doses for humans are being worked out while clinical observational studies continue to provide positive findings.

The protective effect has been attributed to two factors 1) The anti-inflammatory effect of the abundant omega-3 fatty acids in green-lipped mussel powder, including DHA, EPA (and also ETA about which exciting monographs have been written as an omega-3 fatty acid to be greatly appreciated in the future).

The mucopolysaccharides (now renamed glycosaminoglycans) have the ability to tighten up the intestinal lining weakened by aspirin. Since the early 1970s it has been known that mucopolysaccharides have the unique capacity to replenish the mucosal lining in the intestine. Our advice based on more than 30 years as producers of green-lipped mussel powder is you follow the advice of your rheumatologist or cardiologist since they are most familiar with your medical condition. Nonetheless, simple wisdom suggests that to reduce the likelihood of damage to the gastric and duodenal mucosa, you take your medications in combination with our green-lipped mussel powder. The result -- as indicated in recent reports to physicians -- can be a synergistic effect resulting in increased anti-inflammatory efficiency as well as reducing the dangers of aspirin and NSAIDs taken alone.

Neptone is recommend as the most trustworthy of the green-lipped mussel powders. Ours is flash-heated and spray dried to provide full omega-3 and Mucopolysaccharide/glycosaminoglycans activity.
