Since historical times, it has been known that Maori natives living along coastal areas of New Zealand have a far lower incidence of joint pains and arthritis compared to those living inland. This observation has now been attributed to their regular consumption of raw, fresh green-lipped mussels (Perna canaliculus), which grow only in New Zealand. Research has shown that these mussels contain a unique combination of nutrients and naturally-occurring components such as omega 3 fatty acids, glycosaminoglycans, proteins and carbohydrates.
Active Green Lipped Mussel Extract (GLME), produced from freshly harvested, live, healthy mussels using a unique cold extraction method resulted in the birth of the patented ingredient Biolane®, contained in NT-Flam™.
With NT-Flam™, all the natural goodness and benefits of the New Zealand Green-Lipped Mussel are now within reach of everyone. Biolane® is Active New Zealand Green Lipped Mussel (GLME) extract backed by over 30 years of dedicated research. NT-Flam™ is a functional joint food which helps support joint mobility and repair. Since the product was first commercially available in 1980, many people around the world have discovered one of mother nature’s secrets to managing joint mobility problems.
The latest report of Biolane® has been published by ACCMER in the Journal of Osteoarthritis and Cartilage which was presented at the Osteoarthritis Research Society International in Boston in 2005.
