Omega-3 has been linked to various benefits, including improved brain function, reduced risk of heart disease, and decreased joint pain.
But not all Omega 3 is made equal.
There’s increasing research that proves Krill Oil may be superior to its famous cousin; Fish/salmon oil. With powerful antioxidants like Astaxanthin present, the body is able to function and repair on a much higher level.
INGREDIENT HIGHLIGHT
Astaxanthin
How It Works
Astaxanthin is a carotenoid pigment that is found in various marine organisms, including algae, salmon, and krill.
Astaxanthin, in our Fortified Antarctic Krill Oil (NKO™), has been shown to have several health benefits, including its ability to improve the absorption and performance of omega-3 fatty acids in the body.
It might come as a surprise to you, but many Omega-3 supplements you normally take, might not be efficiently used by the body, considering Omega-3 fatty acids’ poor bioavailability.
However, astaxanthin has been shown to improve the absorption of omega-3 fatty acids by enhancing the transport of these fatty acids across the intestinal wall and into the bloodstream.
What Makes It Special
Traditional triglyceride Omega-3 krill/fish oils have to sit on top of other stomach fluids, resulting in an unpleasant fishy reflux while waiting to be digested.
NKO™ does not have fishy aftertaste or burps because it is directly absorbed by the stomach.
As a next generation Omega-3 phospholipid product, NKO™ contains more krill oil concentrate with more Omega-3 fatty acids being delivered to tissues via more phospholipids high in choline. It is this combination of astaxanthin, phospholipids and choline that sets NKO™ apart.
INGREDIENT HIGHLIGHT
Choline
How It Works
95% of choline in the body is found in phospholipid form as phosphatidylcholine. It is a major component of cell membranes.
Choline plays a critical role in a variety of bodily functions, including healthy metabolism, cell membrane structure, nerve signaling and brain development.
What Makes It Special
Choline supports the liver in its detoxification of alcohol, drugs and other toxins. It also strengthens cell membranes and protects them from damage. Choline helps to maintain a healthy balance of hormones in the body, which is important for healthy growth and development.
Other Noteworthy Holistic Health Ingredients:
Phospholipids
Phospholipids are critical components to the function of cell membranes. They promote cell, tissue and organ function and health.
Although dietary phospholipids are present in many foods, purified forms can help to treat various health concerns, including fatty liver, arthritis, heart disease, cachexia, hypercholesterolemia, and more.
Omega-3 Fatty Acids
More than 20,000 studies on EPA and DHA have assessed the health benefits of Omega-3 fatty acids. They have the ability to modify heart disease risk, inflammatory response, neurological and psychiatric balance, vision, blood triglycerides, and many more processes in the body.
Omega-3 fatty acids are essential for overall good health. They reduce the risk of chronic illnesses such as heart disease, stroke, and high blood pressure. It is important to incorporate Omega-3 fatty acids into our diets everyday.
Harvesting
Although krill can survive up to 200 days without food by shrinking and using their body’s bio-material for storing energy in the form of lipids, NKO™ krill uses phosphatidylcholine containing Omega-3 fatty acids as their lipid reserve.
With Flexitech™ technology, harvested NKO™ reduces the TMA/TMAO and salt content of the oil, resulting in a product with a concentrated amount of Omega-3 fatty acids, phospholipids and astaxanthin that is almost taste and smell-free.
The management of krill is also certified sustainable. Krill fishery has been going on for more than 30 years and catches have been stable and low.
While krill oil comes from a sustainable source, krill lives in a very pure environment and is found to be free of contaminants like dioxins, heavy metals, and marine algal toxins.
This new krill oil concentrate holds even more promise in relation to health concerns that are characterized by phospholipid and/or choline deficiency. NKO™ supplementation can help to heal membranes and to optimize Omega-3 fatty acid, phospholipid, and choline status in the body.
The all-in-one advantage of NKO™ delivering simultaneously Omega-3 fatty acids, phospholipids, and choline makes it a superior product in the Omega-3 market.
