The omega-3 fatty acids in krill oil are bound to phospholipids rather than triglycerides as in fish oil. Phospholipids are the same class of lipid that forms human cell membranes, which affects how the omega-3s are processed during digestion. Licensed by Health Canada with NPN 80116638. Manufactured in Canada to GMP standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Science\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKrill Oil vs Fish Oil: The Phospholipid Difference\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe primary structural difference between krill oil and fish oil is the molecular form in which the omega-3 fatty acids are carried. In fish oil, EPA and DHA are bound to triglycerides, a three-fatty-acid glycerol ester that requires pancreatic lipase digestion before the omega-3s can be absorbed. In krill oil, EPA and DHA are predominantly bound to phospholipids, the same class of amphiphilic lipid molecules that form the bilayer structure of human cell membranes. This structural difference affects the digestion and absorption pathway of the omega-3 fatty acids.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis formula provides 400mg of phospholipids per 1,000mg softgel, meaning a significant proportion of the omega-3 fatty acids are in phospholipid-bound form. The phospholipid content also provides phosphatidylcholine, a source of dietary choline, an essential nutrient involved in acetylcholine synthesis, liver fat metabolism, and one-carbon methylation pathways.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eEPA and DHA: What Each Omega-3 Does\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) are long-chain omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids that are essential components of human cell membranes and precursors to a range of bioactive lipid mediators. EPA is the primary precursor to the 3-series prostaglandins and 5-series leukotrienes, eicosanoids with different biological activity profiles than the 2-series and 4-series eicosanoids derived from arachidonic acid. EPA and DHA are also precursors to specialized pro-resolving mediators (SPMs) including resolvins, protectins, and maresins, which support the resolution phase of the inflammatory response. DHA is the predominant structural fatty acid in neuronal cell membranes and the retina, where it supports membrane fluidity and the function of membrane-embedded proteins including rhodopsin and ion channels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAstaxanthin: The Naturally Occurring Carotenoid\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEsterified astaxanthin (200mcg per softgel) is a naturally occurring carotenoid pigment that gives krill their characteristic red-pink colour. Krill accumulate astaxanthin from the microalgae they consume. Astaxanthin is a potent lipophilic antioxidant that is incorporated into the krill oil matrix, where it protects the polyunsaturated fatty acids from oxidation during storage. This contributes to the oxidative stability of krill oil and its low peroxide value compared to many fish oils. Astaxanthin also provides antioxidant activity in lipid-rich biological environments including cell membranes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAntarctic Sourcing and Sustainability\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAntarctic krill (Euphausia superba) are small crustaceans that inhabit the Southern Ocean surrounding Antarctica, one of the least industrially impacted marine environments on Earth. The Antarctic krill fishery is managed by CCAMLR (Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources), which sets precautionary catch limits well below estimated sustainable yield. This krill oil carries MSC (Marine Stewardship Council) certification, which requires independent third-party verification of sustainable fishing practices, traceability, and minimal ecosystem impact.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eMedicinal Ingredient (per softgel)\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKrill oil (Euphausia superba, whole) 1,000mg\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTotal omega-3 fatty acids 270mg\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) 150mg\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDocosahexaenoic acid (DHA) 70mg\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePhospholipids 400mg\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEsterified astaxanthin 200mcg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNon medicinal ingredients: Bovine gelatin (non-GMO), glycerin, purified water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eQuality and Trust\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNPN 80116638\u003c\/strong\u003e Licensed by Health Canada as a Natural Health Product\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMade in Canada\u003c\/strong\u003e GMP certified facility under Health Canada oversight\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThird party tested\u003c\/strong\u003e Heavy metals, PCBs, dioxins, peroxide value, omega-3 content\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMSC certified\u003c\/strong\u003e Marine Stewardship Council certified sustainable Antarctic krill\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrecisely quantified\u003c\/strong\u003e EPA 150mg | DHA 70mg | Phospholipids 400mg | Astaxanthin 200mcg per softgel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNon-GMO bovine gelatin softgel\u003c\/strong\u003e Not suitable for vegetarians or vegans\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e60 softgels\u003c\/strong\u003e At 1 softgel per day\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWho This Is For\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAdults without shellfish allergy seeking a precisely quantified Antarctic krill oil with confirmed EPA, DHA, phospholipid, and astaxanthin content per softgel from a Health Canada licensed formula\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThose who want omega-3 fatty acids in phospholipid-bound form rather than triglyceride-bound fish oil\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHealth conscious consumers who prefer a Health Canada licensed, MSC certified, third party tested, GMP manufactured krill oil supplement\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAdults who have reviewed the suitability notices above and, where applicable, discussed krill oil supplementation with their healthcare practitioner\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdults: Take 1 softgel once daily.
