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.

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).

| Formula |
- How it works: Neptune Krill Oil (NKO) is known for its unique fatty acid (FA) profile, which includes EPA and DHA, plus phospholipids. In addition, NKO naturally has astaxanthin, a powerful free radical scavenger and immune-supporting carotenoid. Clinical studies have shown that NKO can help support joint comfort, healthy blood lipid levels already within normal range, and may help to maintain healthy feminine balance. The phosphlipid-bound forms of EPA and DHA from krill oil have also demonstrated exceptionally high bioavailability.
