Kori Krill Oil delivers essential Omega-3s in their most natural form

Supports heart, brain, joint, eye, skin and immune health.*

What are Krill?

Krill are small, shrimp-like marine crustaceans that belong to the order Euphausiacea. They are found in all of the world’s oceans, but are most abundant in the Southern Ocean around Antarctica. Krill are an important food source for many marine animals, including whales, seals, penguins, and fish. They are also harvested by humans for use in a variety of products, such as fish feed, omega-3 supplements, and food for human consumption. Krill are known for their distinctive red color, which comes from the presence of the pigment astaxanthin in their bodies.

Krill Oil is Nutrient Rich

Krill oil is a dietary supplement that is derived from krill, a small crustacean found in the ocean. It is rich in several important nutrients, including:

1. Omega-3 fatty acids: Krill oil is a rich source of omega-3 fatty acids, particularly eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). These fatty acids are essential for maintaining heart health, brain function, and reducing inflammation.
2. Phospholipids: Krill oil contains phospholipids, which are important components of cell membranes. They help to keep cell membranes fluid and flexible, which is essential for proper cellular function.
3. Astaxanthin: Krill oil contains the antioxidant astaxanthin, which gives krill their distinctive red color. Astaxanthin has been shown to have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties and may help to protect against oxidative stress.
4. Choline: Krill oil is a good source of choline, a nutrient that is important for brain function, liver health, and metabolism.
5. Vitamin A: Krill oil contains vitamin A, a fat-soluble vitamin that is important for vision, immune function, and skin health.

Krill Oil Supports Whole Body Health

Heart Health – Supportive but not conclusive research shows that consumption of EPA and DHA Omega-3 fatty acids may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease. Omega-3s may: support normal triglycerides, increase ‘good’ cholesterol (HDL), support normal circulation and heart rhythm, and support already normal blood pressure.

Brain Health – Kori Krill Oil contains Omega-3 EPA & DHA, two important nutrients for the human brain. Omega-3 EPA seems more influential on mood and behavior, whereas Omega-3 DHA is essential to both prenatal and postnatal brain development. Kori delivers these Omega-3s in their most natural phospholipid form. Phospholipids assist with Omega-3 DHA transfer across the blood brain barrier. A randomized controlled trial with participants taking 285 mg of Omega-3 EPA & DHA from krill oil in healthy elderly individuals suggests that krill oil may support cognitive function after 12 weeks.

Immune health – The immune system is a complex and extensive system that is always on, in surveillance mode, working to keep our bodies as healthy as possible. One important immune system response is the inflammatory response. Omega-3 EPA & DHA nutrients in Kori Krill Oil play a very important role to help regulate inflammation in the body, supporting our cellular repair and internal defense systems, and maintaining the normal healthy status quo.

Joint Health – Omega-3s support our joints over the course of our lives, supporting joint comfort and flexibility as we age. In a clinical trial, 90 male and female patients each received 300 mg krill oil daily for 30 days. After seven days, krill oil significantly promoted joint comfort (-28.9 %), stiffness (-20.3 %) and function (-22.8 %) in comparison to the placebo group.²

Eye Health – Omega-3 DHA is found in the highest concentration in the retina, playing an especially important role in keeping our eyes healthy. It also assists in tear production which is important to eye health. Studies of animals like rodents and primates suggest that consuming Omega-3 fatty acids may help support retinal structure and health.^{3, 4, 5}

Skin Health – Omega-3 fatty acids are important in keeping our skin hydrated and strong. Fatty acids like Omega-3s are needed to maintain the integrity of the skin’s natural protective barrier function against environmental factors and to reduce water-loss through our skin. Shortages of these fatty acids compromise the skin barrier and lead to dry skin. Kori Krill Oil’s Omega-3s secure skin moisture and help to make the skin feel smoother and softer by helping to keep it hydrated.
