Unlike fish oils, Antarctic krill oil carries omega-3s in the form of phospholipids – liposomes or little packages that deliver the fatty acids directly into your pet body’s cells.
Scientific evidence to date has shown that the safest and most effective carriers of EPA and DHA are these phospholipids. Unfortunately, standard fish oils lack this phospholipid complex. Instead, they contain omega-3 fatty acids in the less-beneficial form of free triglycerides.
Why are phospholipids so important? In a nutshell, they…
This unique relationship between the phospholipids and omega-3 fatty acids greatly facilitates the passage of the fatty acid molecules through the intestinal wall.* This helps in three ways:
Although some omega-6 fats are good for your health, the balance of omega-6s to omega-3s is crucial.* Unfortunately, most pets consume an overabundance of omega-6 fats. The phospholipids in Krill Oil can help balance this ratio and provide you with more omega-3 fats.*
This Antarctic krill oil phospholipid “secret weapon” just adds more solid support to why we strongly recommend Krill Oil.

Does your pet constantly shed or experience dry, flaking and scaly skin? Do you notice your pet incessantly itching? They may be experiencing an essential fatty acid deficiency. Essential fatty acids are those required by the body, but ones that must be derived directly from the diet.

Q: Why is krill oil better than fish oil?
A: Krill oil contains naturally-occurring Astaxanthin, a powerful antioxidant of the carotenoid family, known for supporting cardiovascular, neurological, skin, eye and immune health. It is also an excellent source of Omega-3.
Q: Why is there less Omega-3 in krill oil than in regular fish oil?
A: Not all Omega-3s are created equal – some are in the form of triglycerides, and some are in the form of phospholipids. Because cell walls are composed mainly of phospholipids, the phospholipid carrier in krill oil can deliver Omega-3 fatty acids and Astaxanthin more effectively into the cells. In other words, with krill oil the body can absorb more and derive more benefit from a lower dosage.
Q: Are krill free of mercury?
A: Krill are harvested near Antarctica, far from pollution of mercury and other toxins that fish oil products may contain. They’re also at the bottom of the food chain. Since mercury bioaccumulates (when a fish eats a fish that has mercury in it, it stays in the larger fish) and krill are on the bottom of the food chain, there is virtually no mercury in krill at all (if any).
Q: Can krill be over harvested?
A: Krill represent the largest biomass in the ocean. Estimates for the Antarctic biomass range from 170 million to 740 million tons. There is a precautionary catch limit set by the Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR). CCAMLR closely monitors krill harvesting to ensure the precautionary catch limit is not reached, but only 2% of the limit has been harvested in any given year.
