PARK CITY, UT, February 22, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- First identified by NASA in the 70's and studied by both NASA and the EPA extensively, the hole in the ozone over the Arctic region allows some of the strongest UV rays on the planet to shine down on the Marlborough Sound region of New Zealand.
The phytoplankton that the green lipped mussel "eat" depend on sunlight for their survival and in order to survive the ravages of the powerful UVA rays, they produce higher quantities of anti-oxidant rich carotenoids than phytoplankton in other areas of the world. The mussels that feed on these drifting plants concentrate these anti-oxidant rich molecules and fatty acids.
The effect on the Green Lipped Mussels that are indigenous to the area is a unique profile of Omega-3 fatty acids found ONLY in New Zealand. These uncommon essential fatty acids have a profoundly positive effect on the human body, and resulted in the creation of Pernax, a perfect trinity of Omega 3's, Pufa's ( Poly Unsaturated Fatty Acids ), and unique carotenoids.
Science Provides the PERNAX Proof
Research has shown omega-3s to be critical to joint health, respiratory health, cardiovascular health, cholesterol, HDL and triglyceride levels. Omega-6s and other types of fats in our diets leave our cell membranes rich in precursors associated with inflammatory processes, which can lead to arthritis, asthma, heart disease, depression, and psoriasis. Scientific research indicates that we need to reduce omega-6s and increase omega-3s to improve our health.
The active ingredients in Pernax has been the subject of numerous scientific studies, each demonstrating unique benefits. The unique grouping of Omega 3 fatty acids in PERNAX are potent inhibitors of the lipoxygenase (5-lipoxygenase) pathway, which is where leukotrienes are produced, resulting in the down-regulation of the production of these harmful, inflammation-causing substances.
Numerous clinical studies have linked the powerful omega-3s in green lip mussels to measurable health benefits, including a study at the University of California which linked these omega-3s to reduced arthritic symptoms. (See Allerg Immunol (Paris), Sept. 2000;32(7):272-8).
A 2003 study at the Yonsei Medical Clinic validated the clinical effectiveness of green lip mussel extract given to patients with osteoarthritis. (See Allerg Immunol (Paris). June 2003;35(6):212-6.) Additional studies are available upon request.
"Pernax is unlike any product on the market today, says Tony Golden, CMO. The science behind GSM oil is both extensive and compelling. The result of multiple in vitro and in vivo university studies around the world conclude that active ingredients in Pernax are a potent means of controlling and inhibiting the damage caused by the body's inflammatory response."
