Krill are the most bioeffective natural sources of beneficial omega-3 fatty acids EPA/ DHA; Astaxanthin, a powerful antioxidant and Choline, used in neurotransmitter synthesis. Krill Oil nutrients contribute to the normal function of the heart and comprise antioxidant properties. Red krill are shrimp-like crustaceans sourced from the Antarctic. All krill are red, this means they contain a good level of astaxanthin. Krill Oil is a rich source of omega-3 EPA/DHA fatty acids and is more efficiently absorbed by the body than fish oil. Krill also contains choline, which is low in many Western diets. Choline is a precursor to an essential brain chemical called acetylcholine and also helps maintain normal liver function.
