🧪 Formulation Notes

How it works: Neptune Krill Oil (NKO) is known for its unique fatty acid (FA) profile, which includes EPA and DHA, plus phospholipids. In addition, NKO naturally has astaxanthin, a powerful free radical scavenger and immune-supporting carotenoid. Clinical studies have shown that NKO can help support joint comfort, healthy blood lipid levels already within normal range, and may help to maintain healthy feminine balance. The phosphlipid-bound forms of EPA and DHA from krill oil have also demonstrated exceptionally high bioavailability.

Neptune Krill Oil is manufactured under strict quality control standards.

It is tested to be free of potentially harmful levels of contaminated such as PCCs, dioxins, mercury and other heavy metals.

Natural color variation may occur in this product.
