Why krill oil is your heart’s best friend
JACKSON, Tenn. — March 3 is set to mark Omega-3 Day and studies say more than 80% of Americans aren’t getting enough essential fats from their diets.
While omega-3 and fish oil supplements are most common, krill oil offers a unique source of omega-3’s in the exact form the body needs.
Registered Dietitian Nutritionist Dawn Jackson “DJ” Blatner explains why krill oil should be at the top of your list for heart health support among other scientifically-backed benefits.
“If you really aren’t getting those 2 to 3 fatty fish meals every single week, really look to a supplement. Krill oil is a great way to boost up those omega-3s for your brain, your heart, your immune system, and your joints,” said Blatner.
Unlike ordinary fish oil, fatty acids from krill are in a natural food complex that includes phospholipids, choline, and astaxanthin, which give unique and interesting biological properties.
