Krill Oil is water soluble. It is absorbed by the body quicker than omega-3 from fish oil because Krill Oil is already in phospholid form. It contains the antioxidant known as ASTAXANTHIN which is good to slow the ageing process.
Unlike fish oil, the omega-3 fatty acids in Krill oil are absorbed and carried to the body's cells in phospholipid form.
Krill Oil also contains:
Phospholipid-derived fatty acids (PLFA), which may result in better absorption, and marine lethicin
A carotenoid antioxidant called astaxanthin.
Antioxidants inhibit oxidation and may neutralize the oxidant effect of free radicals and other substances in body tissues that may lead to disease.
What Are Krill and Krill Oil?
Krill are small crustaceans that look like miniature prawns.
Krill Oil is extracted from these sea creatures.
The reason the oil from krill has gained popularity is because it contains the antioxidant astaxanthin.
The oil from krill has a higher concentration of EPA and also do not give rise to fish-burps associated with taking traditional fish oil.
Research shows that consumption of EPA and DHA Omega-3 fatty acids may reduce the risk or coronary heart disease.
21st Century's Krill Oil provides Omega-3 fatty acids which are considered one of the "good" oils important for cellular, heart and metabolic health.
Omega-3 fatty acids also help support eye health, joint health, brain function and immune system.
Unlike many other antioxidants, astaxanthin crosses the blood-brain barrier, where it can protect the eye, brain and central nervous system from free radical damage.
