Antarctic Krill Oil, 60 caps.

Description

Antarctic Krill Oil (Euphausia superba) is is a natural source of high concentration Omega 3, astaxanthin, high strength the powerful antioxidant, as well as high levels of Phospholipids – a fundamental component of human cell membranes.

Antarctic Krill Oil contains two types of Omega 3 fatty acid: eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA).

Krill oil is used for the same reasons as cod liver oil, flax oil and other Omega 3 fatty acids, but is often favoured because it does not cause fishy burps or an after-taste – a common side effect of fish oil.

The fact that it contains Astaxanthin is also unique. The ultimate antioxidant – researchers have found that it may be more powerful than vitamin E, beta-carotene and lutein. It can also enhance the action of other antioxidants, such as vitamin E and C.

Antarctic Krill Oil has a high-strength formula (500mg), provided in an easy-to-swallow marine gel capsule form. It is sourced exclusively from sustainable fisheries in the Antarctic, through Aker BioMarine™ which works with World Wildlife Foundation Norway to ensure sustainable krill harvesting.
