Product Details
Neptune Krill Oil has a number of advantages that make it very appealing among essential fatty acid (EFA) formulas. First, it has a very unique profile of naturally occurring EFA’s, antioxidants and phospholipids. Because of this, the EFA content in Neptune Krill Oil has been shown to be more stable than some other EFA products. In addition to omega-3, Neptune Krill Oil contains omega-6 and -9 fatty acids, as well as Astaxanthin and three types of phospholipids.
The oil of Atlantic Krill, a zooplankton crustacean, contains one of the most unique nutrient profiles ever discovered. In addition to rich concentrations of EPA and DHA, krill oil also boasts an impressive amount of phospholipids, all trans-retinol vitamin A, natural vitamin E, and omega-9 fatty acids. The oil is an excellent source of esterified astaxanthin—a powerful, immune supporting carotenoid that has been clinically proven to quench singlet oxygen radicals within cell membranes. This potent synergetic blend of naturally occurring compounds helps support many of the body’s most vital systems. The naturally occurring nutritional compounds in Neptune Krill Oil have been shown in studies to help support several health concerns, such as cardiovascular, cognitive, joint, and antioxidant activity. NOW® Neptune Krill Oil is manufactured under strict quality control standards, and tested to be free of potentially harmful levels of mercury, heavy metals, PCB’s, dioxins and other contaminants.
