In addition to rich concentrations of EPA and DHA, krill oil also boasts an impressive amount of phospholipids, all-trans retinol vitamin A, natural vitamin E, and omega-9 fatty acids. The oil is an excellent source of esterified astaxanthin—a powerful, immune-supporting carotenoid that has been clinically proven to quench singlet oxygen radicals within cell membranes. This potent arrangement of naturally occurring compounds exhibits strong synergist properties that support many of the body’s most vital systems. The naturally occurring nutritional compounds in Neptune Krill Oil have been shown in studies to help with a wide range of health concerns, including cardiovascular support, cognitive function, joint mobility, premenstrual syndrome and antioxidant activity.
