Antarctic krill oil has a unique secret weapon that makes it a top choice over other fish oils. Unlike fish oils, krill oil carries its omega-3s, EPA and DHA, in the form of phospholipids – liposomes or little packages that deliver the fatty acids directly to your body’s cells. This helps make the omega-3 fats in krill oil more bioavailable than those in fish oil to help support your omega-3 to omega-6 ratio.
With Dr. Mercola Krill Oil, you don’t have to be concerned about potential contaminants and pollutants often found in fish oils and certain fish you might eat. Because krill are at the bottom of the food chain, they don’t accumulate pollutants like other fish species. And the krill used for this Krill Oil comes from clear, pure Antarctic waters.
- Most likely, you know about the many health benefits of omega-3 fats. Not only do these essential fats support your heart health, immune system, joint comfort and overall mood, but they’re also important in helping you maintain a healthy balance of omega-3s and omega-6s.
- Unlike regular fish oils, krill oil carries its omega-3s, EPA and DHA, in the form of phospholipids – liposomes, or little packages, that deliver the fatty acids directly to your body’s cells. This helps make the essential omega-3 fats in krill oil more bioavailable to help improve your omega-3 to omega-6 ratio.*
- Sourced from the pristine Antarctic waters by the only fishery to receive an “A” grade for sustainability, our exclusive Krill Oil formula:
- Is Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) Certified – “Boat to plate” certification and auditing ensures harvesting to manufacturing adheres to MSC’s chain of custody standard. Krill are harvested in a sustainable way that also ensures no by-catch (non-krill species) is captured.
- Provides traceability and trust – Our manufacturer provides traceability of krill from its source through final processing in a controlled value chain.
- Employs a unique patented harvesting method – This technology helps ensure top-quality krill oil by delivering the krill to tanks on the boat alive (unlike most other manufacturers). This allows for fresh processing of delicate krill.
- Uses superior encapsulation – With the use of a Licaps® capsule, our formula is delivered in a unique hermetically sealed protective capsule.
- Provides enhanced shelf-life – Exemplary filling and sealing process incorporated in encapsulation helps improve krill oil longevity by helping prevent oxidation.
- Krill oil contains naturally occurring astaxanthin and a flavonoid with a novel molecular structure, but to ensure you receive a healthy serving of astaxanthin with every capsule, we’ve added 2 mg of Organic Astaxanthin from microalgae.
