Neptune 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.

Esterified Astaxanthin
Description:Astaxanthin is a naturally occurring carotenoid, a class of pigments found in a variety of plants and microorganisms. It is known for its strong antioxidant properties and for giving certain seafood and other organisms their pink or red color. Astaxanthin is commonly used as a dietary supplement and can be found in the form of capsules, tablets, and soft gels. It is promoted for its potential health benefits, including reducing the risk of heart disease, improving skin health, and reducing inflammation. Astaxanthin is a common component in dietary supplements for the eye, marketed to reduce the effects of age-related macular degeneration (AMD).

Choline
Description:Choline is an essential nutrient that is found in many foods, including eggs, and is important for a number of bodily functions, including liver function, brain development, and nerve function. Choline is a precursor to acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter that plays a role in memory, mood, and muscle control. Choline also helps to transport fats out of the liver, which may help to reduce the risk of liver disease. Choline supplements are available in different forms, including choline bitartrate, choline chloride, and phosphatidylcholine. Choline bitartrate is the most common form of choline supplement, but phosphatidylcholine is the form that is found naturally in foods.

- Krill Oil is known for its unique fatty acid (FA) profile, as well as for its rich antioxidant content. Krill Oil's balanced fatty acid content includes not only EPA and DHA, the crucial omega-3 FAs, but omega-9 FAs and phospholipids, as well. Krill Oil is a rich source of Astaxanthin, a powerful antioxidant. Clinical studies have shown that Neptune Krill Oil (NKO(TM)) can support joint comfort, healthy blood lipid levels, and may reduce symptoms of pre-menstrual syndrome. In addition, preliminary clinical research suggests that Astaxanthin may help to safeguard skin structure during sun exposure.
Neptune Krill Oil is manufactured under strict quality control standards.

- Several recognized scientific studies have demonstrated that Omega-3 FAs are important in numerous signaling pathways. Most notably, EPA is a precursor of certain prostaglandins and leukotrienes, molecules that are involved in mediating healthy inflammatory responses and lung function and are critical for the maintenance of cardiovascular health, immune system function, and joint comfort. Because Omega-3 FAs have been shown to be important in cell membrane biochemistry, they play a critical role in information processing in the brain. This particular function of DHA is especially significant with respect to its role in the maintenance of a positive mental state and balanced mood.
Krill oil has a unique biomolecular profile of phospholipids naturally rich in omega-3 fatty acids and diverse antioxidants significantly different from the usual profile of fish oils. The association between phospholipids and long-chain omega-3 fatty acids highly facilitates the passage of fatty acid molecules through the intestinal wall, increasing bioavailability and ultimately improving the omega-3:omega-6 fatty acid ratio.
Krill oil is also a rich source of Astaxanthin, a carotenoid pigment also found in salmon, trout, shrimp, crayfish, and other crustaceans. Non-clinical research indicates that due to Astaxanthin's potent antioxidant activity, it may be beneficial in cardiovascular and immune function.
