Testimonials

Testimonials from three people who took part in the recent University of Queensland’s clinical study trial to measure the benefit of Aroma’s product.

1. I have found that by using the green-shell mussel capsules, the pain that I had lived with in my right knee was reduced significantly to a level where I could get better sleep and do more activities than when I commenced the trial.

2. Green lipped mussel extract certainly worked for me. In the eight weeks I was taking it I noticed a great improvement in my knees. At the end of eight weeks my knees were almost completely pain free and I would recommend green shell mussel to anyone with knee pain.

3. I definitely noticed a difference taking the green shell mussel. I was actually able to play with my three year old daughter without pain and stiffness in my knees which was wonderful. But when I stopped taking the green shell mussel (at the completion of the trial) the pain and stiffness returned within a few weeks.

Other participants bought the GlycOmega-Plus extract when they finished the clinical trial as they were so impressed with the results. The next stage in demonstrating, with scientific certainty, the therapeutic efficacy of GlycOmega-Plus is to perform a double-blind placebo controlled trial. Aroma NZ director Ben Winters Jr says they always knew green shell mussel powder gave great results to people and animals who suffered arthritis.

The study found patients who took freeze-dried New Zealand mussel powder throughout the trial significantly eased their knee joint pain by 59 percent. The university investigators said previous reports on the use of green shell mussel for treating osteo-arthritis had been inconsistent with no conclusive evidence.

"A key contributor to the results was the quality and purity of the stabilised mussel from Aroma NZ and the extract’s preservation of therapeutic activity," primary clinical investigators for the project Luis Vitetta and Samantha Coulson said.

"Just a quick note to say how thank full I have been to have started using Aromaz's pure Green Lipped Mussel powder - its been a year now and my elderly horse has not looked back. His arthritis has been totally manageable enabling us to compete again and get placed in dressage - his coat is shiney and you can see much harder healthier hoof growth. Im convinced that this has been the key to extending our riding time together."

"Hi Ben, I have been using your green lipped mussel extract for one of my horses that was showing some lameness due to an accident that resulted in some arthritic changes. He has noticeably improved in his freedom of movement and his coat looks lovely. We will continue to use your product as it has made a definate difference."

Hello, My mother got a gift of your Greenshell Mussel oil from a friend who visited New Zealand. She says her pain in her knee joint disappeared after she took the capsules. I can't believe it, but she insists."

"I started using Greenshell Mussel oil after an old sports injury flared up again and have noticed a far quicker response with rehab this time. Now my ankle is in tip top shape again, a result that wouldn’t have been possible so quickly without the good oil. Thanks!"

"My daily companion and workmate is Sam, a 54kg 13 year old German Shepherd cross who has had arthritis for the past 2-1/2 years.  I have been giving him two teaspoons of your Green-Lipped Mussel Powder sprinkled over his evening meal for the past two years and his stiff joints noticeably improved after the first three weeks.  Despite his age he is still quite active and enjoys his daily walks.  The vet is impressed with his overall condition at his twice-annual checkups and is happy with his daily dose of mussel powder.  Thank you for your product which allows me to continue sharing his company, and for Sam to enjoy a happy and comfortable life."
