If you want to buy omega-3 fatty acids, Krill Vida will provide you with high quality capsules with krill oil. The omega-3 fatty acids contained are good for your heart, brain and eyes. Krill is sustainably fished and comes from Antarctic waters, which are among the cleanest on earth.

Advantages of Krill Vida

• Natural product with essential nutrients that support your heart.
• Concentrated krill oil = desirable ingredients are retained, undesirable ones are removed.
• A bit water soluble = far reaching consequences for the compatibility, digestion and absorption of the oil.
• Traceability of each batch to the exact catch location in Antarctica.
• Sustainable fishing methods without by-catch.
• Gentle processing directly on the ship.

Unique formula

• Good for your heart: Krill Vida contains the omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA. These contribute to normal heart function.
• With phospholipids: They are a component of all cell membranes. The omega-3 fatty acids in krill oil are bound to them. This guarantees an optimized delivery of EPA and DHA.
• Good for the liver: The choline in krill oil helps maintain liver function.
• The omega-3 fatty acids are naturally preserved by the astaxanthin contained.

What customers say

Omega-3 fatty acids: EPA and DHA

Krill oil is obtained from Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba). It contains remarkable amounts of the omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA. These are unsaturated fatty acids that are essential for the human body, i.e. they cannot be produced by the body itself. In the past, these fatty acids were also referred to as vitamin F. Omega-3 fatty acids are mainly found in algae, plants, fish or krill. Algae and plants contain the omega-3 acids mainly in the form of α-linolenic acid, while in oily fish and krill they are mainly present as docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA). These are good for the heart and brain: they contribute to normal heart function and the maintenance of normal brain function.

Good for the heart, brain and eyes

• DHA and EPA contribute to normal heart function.
• DHA and EPA contribute to normal blood pressure.
• DHA and EPA contribute to normal blood triglyceride levels.
• DHA contributes to the maintenance of normal brain function.
• DHA contributes to the maintenance of normal vision.
• DHA contributes to normal brain development in the fetus and infant.
• DHA contributes to normal eye development in the fetus and infant.
• Choline contributes to normal homocysteine metabolism.
• Choline contributes to normal lipid metabolism.
• Choline contributes to the maintenance of normal liver function.

Differences from Krill-Oil and Fish-Oil

	Krill-Oil	Fish-Oil
Pure, natural Krill Oil directly from Antarctic waters			From different fish species and sources
Omega-3 fatty acids are bound to phospholipids			Omega-3 fatty acids are bound to triglycerides
Mixes with water			Does not mix with water

• In fish oil, the omega-3 fatty acids are bound to triglycerides and are therefore fat-soluble. In krill oil, the omega-3 fatty acids are bound to phospholipids. They are therefore to some extent also water-soluble. This has far-reaching consequences for the compatibility, digestion and absorption of the oil.
• Studies* show that krill oil is better absorbed by the body than fish oil.
• The ratio between omega-3 acids and omega-6 acids is 3 times higher in krill oil than in fish oil.
• Krill is at the top of the food chain. This makes the accumulation of heavy metals and other toxins in the animals’ bodies much less likely, unlike fish further up the food chain.
• Unlike fish, krill are not at risk of overfishing. The krill stock is estimated to be around 500 million tons. No other animal species in the world produces more mass than krill. A maximum of 0.5% of the stock is fished worldwide.
• Nevertheless, it is important to use only krill from sustainable sources. The krill contained in Krill Vida comes from sustainable and controlled catches.

Differences of Krill Oil and linolenic acid from plants.

The adult body can partially convert α-linolenic acid found in plants to EPA and DHA, but only in small amounts. Only about 10% of alpha-linolenic acid is converted to EPA and DHA at all. Therefore, it can be useful to take omega-3 fatty acids in the form of krill or fish oil.

Krill Vida: sustainable, gentle and high quality

MSC certification guarantees that the krill is fished using sustainable methods and is traceable throughout the supply chain. We know from every single capsule where the krill it contains has been fished. This traceability ensures maximum transparency.	For the fifth year in a row, “our” Antarctic krill fishery has received an “A rating” from the Sustainable Fisheries Partnership (SFP) for its well-managed fishery. The independent report states that fish stocks are in very good condition and the Atlantic Southern Ocean krill fishery is highlighted as being particularly well managed.	Eco-harvesting is a technology to fish for krill in a sustainable and environmentally friendly way. The trawl is constantly submerged and the krill gently enter the vessel through a special hose, reducing the risk of bycatch of other species to almost zero.

• Sustainable: The krill is fished according to the strict principles of CAMLR. This organization is responsible for sustainable krill fishing in the Antarctic. In the process, catch data is transmitted daily by satellite to the authorities and CAMLR. The Antarctic krill fishery only operates in a small area for which CAMLR has set a catch quota of only 1% of the total biomass (by comparison, for fishing, a catch quota of 10% is considered sustainable).
• With respect to nature: krill is caught in those months when, for example, whales have finished rearing their young and are no longer only in the Antarctic. Krill fishing is therefore not in competition with these beautiful animals. No trawl nets are used, which destroy the seabed.
• Gentle processing: Our krill oil is processed immediately after the catch and as gently as possible directly on the ship to preserve the ingredients unchanged.
• Capsule shell made of fish gelatin: The capsules of Krill Vida are made of fish gelatin instead of the otherwise common bovine gelatin.
