Krill is the generic name for marine crustaceans that feed on plankton. Outwardly, they look like a small shrimp, and the fat extracted from them is much healthier than fish. These marine life do not contain heavy metals and mercury, like some fish species.

The action of the main component and its difference from fish oil

Krill oil has a number of different effects on the body compared to fish oil.

Index	Krill oil	Fish fat
Accelerates the metabolic processes of glucose in liver cells.	Yes.	No.
Regulates the mitochondrial respiratory chain.	Yes.	No.
Activates lipid metabolism.	Yes.	No.

Krill oil contains a high concentration of astaxanthin, which significantly increases its antioxidant effect compared to retinol and alpha-tocopherol (300 times), lutein (47 times), CoQ10 (34 times).

The product is distinguished by the high quality of the raw materials used, extracted in the waters of the Southern Ocean, as well as careful production and transparency of the composition.
