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.

| General Statements |
- Antioxidant Protection
Unique antioxidants including astaxanthin, may protect you from damaging free radicals. Krill oil boasts a profile of powerful antioxidants not seen in standard fish oil.
- Phospholipid Complex
Unlike fish oils, krill oil carries omega-3s in the form of phosphoslipids - liposomes or little packages that delivery the fatty acids directly to your body's cells. Standard fish oils lack this phospholidpid complex.
- WHAT IS KRILL OIL?
Antarctic Krill
Krill oil contains omega-3 fatty acids, antioxidants, and a phospholipid complex. Krill are small prawn-like creatures that feed the world's most mammoth animals...the great whales. Great whales gulp down huge quantities of krill to provide the energy they need to fuel their massive bulk.
- Sustainability
Krill is one of the largest biomasses in the ocean. It is one of the most abundant and sustainable organisms on the planet. Krill represent a renewable, sustainable and positive nutrition source.
