Talley's Greenshell Mussels (Perna canaliculus) are native to New Zealand and unique to its pristine waters. Greenshell mussels are farmed utilising only natural and environmentally friendly processes. The New Zealand marine farmer’s safe, sustainable and environmentally friendly practices have been recognised by the International Conservation Organisation Blue Ocean Institute, ranking New Zealand Greenshell™ Mussels as one of the top two ‘eco-friendly seafoods’ in the world.
Using world leading techniques, Greenshell mussels are delivered for processing into nutritional supplements within mere hours of being harvested from their pure ocean environment.
New Zealand Greenshell mussels are popular as a nutritional supplement in human and animal health, providing a unique combination of essential fatty acids (long chain omega 3 polyunsaturated acids (PUFA’s)), biologically active proteins, chelated minerals, glycosaminoglycans (chondroitin sulphates), amino acids, and nucleic acids that may yield a synergistic effect to support joint function by assisting with a natural anti – inflammatory response and providing building blocks for articular cartilage.
