Antarctic Krill Oil
Omega-3 and DHA and EPA specifically, are considered heart healthy. Taking krill oil is a simple way to increase your EPA and DHA intake.
Fats found in krill oil may be easier for the body to use than those from fish oil, since most omega-3 fats in fish oil are stored in the form of triglycerides and a large portion of the omega-3 fats in krill oil can be found in the form of molecules called phospholipids, which may be easier to absorb into the bloodstream.
Omega-3 fatty acids like those found in krill oil have been shown to have important anti inflammation functions in the body. In fact, krill oil may be even more effective at fighting inflammation than other marine omega-3 sources because it is easier for the body to use.
Studies have found that krill oil significantly reduced a marker of inflammation. Also, krill oil could reduce stiffness, functional impairment, and pain in patients with rheumatoid or osteoarthritis
Krill oil is also typically considered to be a more sustainable choice than fish oil, because krill are so abundant and reproduce quickly. Unlike fish oil, it also contains astaxanthin.
