An introduction to Neptune Krill Oil
Neptune Krill Oil (NKO) is omega-3 rich oil extracted from Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba). Krill is a floating mass of small, shrimp-like crustaceans.
NKO's unique composition
The composition of NKO is remarkably complex comprising of multiple bioactive components that synergize in supporting health: omega-3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA), phospholipids, choline, omega-9 and antioxidants. NKO is an exceptional source of omega-3 phospholipids: the omega-3 fatty acids, EPA and DHA, are stably incorporated within the structure of phospholipids. Phospholipids are a special kind of fat. Furthermore, NKO has an excellent omega-3:omega-6:omega-9 ratio of 15:1:6, which is the ideal omega mix to complement a Western diet that is typically overloaded with omega-6.
Manufactured by the patented Neptune Ocean Extract™ process
The Neptune Ocean Extract process is a patented and proprietary cold extraction method for optimal preservation of the bioactive properties of all components. Thanks to this exclusive extraction process NKO is free of heavy metals, PCBs, dioxins and pesticides. Since its stability is guaranteed by an incredibly high, natural antioxidant potency NKO contains no preservatives.
