9.3: Mussels Power Up Tea

Updated: Dec 26, 2023

🐾 Green lipped mussels

  • Green lipped mussels are packed with chondroitin and are rich in fatty acids.

  • In fact, there are 90 different fatty acids in green lipped mussels! But the most abundant are EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid).

  • These are two important fatty acids that are known to reduce inflammation.

  • Due to this, they make a great replacement for NSAIDS that are usually prescribed by vets for joint or muscle pain. NSAIDS are well known to cause a host of other issues though in the body especially when taken long term.


Ingredients

  • 1 bag of high quality, green lipped mussels

  • 1 litre of cooled chamomile tea

  • Handful of chopped mint leaves

  • 4 teaspoons Kelp Seaweed powder

  • 4 handfuls mixed frozen berries

Directions:

  • 1st of all, ensure the mussels have been cooked and de-shelled, or come cooked & frozen frozen in line with our fresh produce guidance

  • Make 1 litre of chamomile tea using 2 teabags and let the bags stew for a few minutes.

  • Remove the bags and let the tea cool fully before using.

  • Defrost the mussels and shell them if they have not already been shelled for you.

  • Add mixed frozen berries, mint & kelp seaweed.

  • Blend carefully to ensure no spitting and beware it may smell bad to you if like me you don’t like fishy smells and sniff it! Just think of the goodness though!

  • When fully blended, pour into silicone moulds and freeze - feed 1 portion every couple of days. There is no hard and fast rule on it but a small mould should be used as this is an absolute powerhouse tea

  • Once fully frozen you can store in bags or tubs in the freezer for portion control ease.


⚠️ Give 1 portion roughly every 3 days if your dog has no current issues as a supportive addition
