KRILL OIL

More than 1.5 million people worldwide rely on a new generation of omega-3 fatty acids: krill oil . Every day, more health-conscious people join the flock who no longer want to do without krill oil. There is a good reason for this: krill oil has a Very high content of the valuable omega-3 fatty acids DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) and EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) . Medicom krill oil is unique due to its special combination of ingredients. These include high-quality omega-3 fatty acids , phospholipids, and astaxanthin, an effective antioxidant.

Why krill oil is so special

The long-chain, polyunsaturated omega-3 fatty acids DHA and EPA in krill oil are essential because the human organism needs them for the formation of cell structures , and they are also important for Heart-healthy diet. What makes krill oil special is that its omega-3 fatty acids are bound to phospholipids . These can be used better and faster by the body than omega-3 fatty acids from fish oil. It is incorporated more efficiently into cell membranes (cell walls), thus improving the flow properties of the blood. Phospholipids are also part of the cell walls. They stimulate brain metabolism and ensure the transmission of information between nerve cells. This, in turn, can improve our mental Support performance and memory. Long-chain polyunsaturated omega-3 fatty acids are not produced by the body. They must be consumed regularly and in sufficient quantities through food.

Krill oil - full of antioxidants

Krill oil has another advantage. It naturally contains the carotenoid astaxanthin , a secondary plant compound that is one of nature's most powerful antioxidants . Antioxidants can neutralize free radicals and serve to Cell protection. The carotenoid Astaxanthin is responsible for the characteristic color of krill oil and protects the fatty acids from oxidation.

Krill oil from crustaceans: Sustainable and strictly controlled

Krill oil is extracted from a small crustacean, the Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba). Krill is at the very beginning of the food chain and feeds exclusively on phytoplankton . More than half of the krill biomass (400-500 million tons) is consumed by whales, seals, penguins, squid, and fish. Less than one percent of the quantities consumed by these animals are caught annually. Catch quotas are controlled by the international Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR) to continue to protect the balance and sustainability of the Antarctic ecosystem .

Medicom relies on environmentally friendly fishing methods

Nobilin Krill Oil® Omega 3 Plus and Nobilin Krill Oil® Forte are exclusively sourced from the Norwegian company Aker BioMarine. This innovative fishing company relies on a particularly environmentally friendly krill fishing method. The krill is pumped alive underwater onto the ship, where it is freshly processed and frozen. The special net system eliminates unwanted bycatch of other fish. Aker BioMarine is the only fishing company to bear the blue MSC label for certified sustainable fishing. Aker BioMarine also works closely with the environmental organization WWF .

Pure and well tolerated

The krill's habitat speaks for the high quality of krill oil. The Antarctic is among the cleanest bodies of water on Earth, with no significant contamination from pesticides or pollutants. Since krill is at the top of the food chain, it is less exposed to environmental toxins. Furthermore, krill oil has a better availability due to the omega-3 fatty acids bound to phospholipids. Krill oil is well tolerated due to its different digestion and absorption processes, making a krill oil supplement preferable even for sensitive individuals. Nobilin Krill Oil® Omega 3 Plus and Nobilin Krill Oil® Forte are easy to consume and there are no unpleasant fishy burps or a bad taste in the mouth.
