100% pure Superba2 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.
