Looking for heart support?
Krill out. We've got you covered.
Omega-3s do all kinds of good for your body, from supporting your heart health to your mental performance. Since your body can't make them on its own, though, you have to consume them through the diet. Trouble is, most of us don't get enough. In fact, according to a recent study analyzing data from the United States and Germany, 98 percent of study participants had low Omega-3 index levels. That's where O-Krill 3™, a premium line of krill oil supplements tailored for specific needs, comes in!
What are Krill?
Krill are shrimp-like crustaceans found in the pure waters of Antarctica and make up the largest biomass on the planet. They are rich in the omega-3 fatty acids eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), thanks to the phytoplankton (also known as microalgae) they regularly munch on.
Fish Oil vs Krill Oil
Fish oil is the most popular source of omega-3s. But does that make it the best? Read on to find out six advantages O-Krill 3™ Oil has over fish oil.
Fish Oil | O-Krill3 Oil | Advantage | |
Absorption | Triglyceride structure | Phospholipid structure | Your body absorbs omega-3s better when they are bound to phospholipids |
Sustainability | Some species used to make fish oil are overfished (such as salmon and Atlantic cod) | Krill are sustainably harvested from a fishery certified by the Marine Stewardship Council | Your choice ensures stocks remain a valuable resource for future generations |
Traceability | Typically bought off the open market with no way to know where it originated | Traceable back to the source by entering a product lot number into our site | You know exactly where your krill came from |
Taste | Fishy taste and repeat | No fishy taste or repeat | You won't taste it going down or burp it up later |
Dosage | Several large, difficult-to-swallow softgels per day | 1-2 small, easy-to-swallow softgels per day | You'll actually take your omega-3 supplement |
Processing | Requires harsh processing to eliminate contaminants | Is minimally processed, because it is naturally low in contaminants | You can feel good about consuming omega-3s closer to nature |
