> There's a product called Lyprinol that contains green lipped mussell oil, and is supposed to be 50 times more potent than EPA. I can't remember what's in it. It is recommended for asthma and arthritis, for which there is experimental evidence apparently. I wonder if it's good for depression. The Mauri people in NZ used those mussels for arthritis.
> DeclanYes, there is something in this oil that makes it very much more effective against arthritis than other marine oils.....I'm going to go with sterols. It is also possible that these mussels are actually contaminated with "toxins" from phytoplankton, which remain active in the extracted oil. <shrug>
Is it worth the cost? Depends on if it works. It seems to be very effective in both forms of arthritis, osteo- and rheumatoid, for most people. Moderately helpful in asthma.
