Krill Oil
Krill oil is a dietary supplement derived from tiny, shrimp-like crustaceans called krill. It is rich in omega-3 fatty acids, primarily EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid), which are essential for heart and brain health. Krill oil is also known for containing phospholipids, enhancing its absorption compared to other omega-3 sources like fish oil. Some research suggests potential benefits for cardiovascular health, inflammation reduction, and joint health.

Brand IP Statement(s) |
- Schiff(R) MegaRed(R) goes a step further by only sourcing krill from the Antarctic where krill is most abundant. This helps the ecosystem maintain a healthy, sustainable krill population.
- MegaRed(R) Omega-3 Krill Oil contains omega-3 fatty acids DHA and EPA. Research has shown that DHA and EPA may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease.1 Unlike fish oil, the omega-3 fatty acids in MegaRed(R) Omega-3 Krill Oil are absorbed and carried to the body's cells in phospholipid form.
- MegaRed(R) has been shown to significantly increase your Omega-3 Index in just 30 days. The Omega-3 index is a measure of the amount of omega-3 fatty acids in your blood. A higher Omega-3 Index is associated with better cardiovascular health.
- MegaRed(R) provides an optimal combination of omega-3 fatty acids, phospholipids and powerful antioxidants including astaxanthin to support heart and joint health.
- Schiff(R) SURE DISSOLVE softgels are formulated to disintegrate within one hour.
- 1Phospholipids form the structural basis of cell membranes, so MegaRed(R) phospholipids with omega-3 fatty acids are easily recognized, incorporated and utilized by the body.
- Importantly, because MegaRed(R) omega-3's are carried in phospholipid form, there is no fishy aftertaste.
