Why Omega-3 Plays an Important Role
Omega-3 fatty acids are essential fatty acids. This means that the body cannot produce them in sufficient quantities on its own and must obtain them through the diet. The two marine omega-3 fatty acids, EPA and DHA, are particularly well known.
In modern diets, high levels of omega-6 fatty acids are often accompanied by a comparatively low intake of omega-3s. Those who eat little fatty ocean fish or who want to specifically focus on high-quality sources of omega-3s may consider a product like KO3 Antarctic Krill Oil as a supplement.
Krill oil or fish oil—what's the difference?
Both traditional fish oil and krill oil provide valuable omega-3 fatty acids. The key difference lies primarily in their natural fat structure. In krill oil, the omega-3 fatty acids are predominantly bound to phospholipids. Phospholipids are natural components of cell membranes.
| Krill Oil | Fish oil |
|---|---|
| Omega-3 is often found in phospholipid form | Omega-3 is usually found in the form of triglycerides |
| Contains naturally occurring astaxanthin | Astaxanthin is usually not found naturally |
| Is often described as well-tolerated | Tolerance varies depending on the product |
| Extracted from Antarctic krill | Derived from fish oil sources |
What makes KO3 Antarctic Krill Oil special?
Neptune Krill Oil (NKO®)
Neptune Krill Oil is a high-quality krill oil raw material. The omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA it contains are present in a natural phospholipid-bound structure.
EPA & DHA
EPA and DHA are among the most important marine omega-3 fatty acids. They are primarily associated with high-fat seafood and marine sources such as krill oil.
Phospholipids
Phospholipids are natural fatty compounds and important components of biological cell membranes. It is precisely this structure that distinguishes krill oil from many traditional fish oil products.
Astaxanthin
Astaxanthin is a naturally occurring carotenoid that gives krill oil its characteristic reddish color. It occurs naturally in krill.
Who is KO3 suitable for?
- For people who want to consciously supplement their omega-3 intake
- For people who eat little high-fat sea fish
- For users who prefer krill oil to traditional fish oil
- For people who value high-quality ingredients and transparent sourcing
- For anyone looking for an omega-3 product containing EPA, DHA, phospholipids, and astaxanthin
