Why Green Lipped Mussel for cats and dogs?
1
Supports cartilage and joint structure
Green Lipped Mussel is naturally rich in glucosamine, chondroitin, and glycosaminoglycans (GAGs). These are what your pet's body uses to maintain cartilage and protect connective tissue over time.
2
Omega-3s you won't find in fish oil
Green Lipped Mussel contains ETA (eicosatetraenoic acid), an Omega-3 found only in mussels, not in any fish oil. It's also delivered in phospholipid form, which means your pet's body absorbs it far more efficiently.
3
Helps support mobility and flexibility
Supports your pet's natural joint lubrication and synovial fluid, so they can keep moving freely. Owners of older dogs and active cats may notice the difference within 6 to 8 weeks.
4
Arthritis and hip support for ageing pets
Chosen by pet owners looking for natural arthritis and hip dysplasia support for their dogs and cats. Also suitable for younger pets at risk of joint issues.

Frequently asked questions
What is Mega Mussel with Rosemary Extract?
Mega Mussel is a concentrated joint supplement for dogs and cats, made from New Zealand Green Lipped Mussel (Perna canaliculus) and freeze-dried rosemary extract. Each capsule uses a 28:1 concentrate, meaning every capsule is equivalent to 19,000mg of fresh green lipped mussel. It's naturally rich in omega-3 fatty acids, glucosamine, and chondroitin to support joint mobility and hip health.
How does green lipped mussel help dogs and cats?
Green lipped mussel is a natural source of omega-3 fatty acids and glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), both of which help reduce joint inflammation and support cartilage repair. Clinical studies have shown that dogs given green lipped mussel over a sustained period experienced reduced joint pain and improved mobility. It works as a natural anti-inflammatory, helping to ease stiffness and keep joints moving well.
Why is rosemary extract included?
Rosemary extract serves two purposes. First, it acts as a natural antioxidant that protects the omega-3 fatty acids in green lipped mussel from oxidation, keeping them stable and effective without the need for artificial preservatives. Second, rosemary contains natural anti-inflammatory properties, complementing the joint support provided by the mussel extract.
How long does it take to see results?
Most pets start to show improvement within six to eight weeks of daily use, though this varies from pet to pet. Once you stop, the benefits tend to fade gradually, so ongoing daily use is recommended, especially for senior pets or those with chronic joint issues.
Can I give Mega Mussel alongside other joint medications?
Green lipped mussel is safe to use alongside other medications, including prescribed anti-inflammatories. Many vets recommend it as part of a multi-modal approach to joint care. That said, always check with your vet before combining supplements.
How long does one bottle last?
Each bottle contains 90 capsules. For small dogs and cats, that's up to 90 days of daily joint care. For medium to large dogs, it usually lasts 45 to 90 days depending on the serving size. If not given daily, it can last even longer.
Is this product safe?
Mega Mussel is made to human-grade quality standards. It's GMO-free, contains no fillers or artificial additives, and is free from common allergens like wheat, gluten, dairy, and yeast. The most common side effect is mild stomach sensitivity, which is usually avoided by giving it with food. It is not suitable for pets with shellfish allergies, and pets with thyroid conditions should consult their vet first.
