About Nature’s Sunshine Krill Oil with K2

Your body depends on essential fatty acids for optimal health, but not all omega-3 supplements are created equal. Nature’s Sunshine Krill Oil with K2 combines the superior bioavailability of Antarctic krill oil with the bone and cardiovascular benefits of Vitamin K2, creating a comprehensive supplement that supports your body’s most vital systems.

Krill are tiny crustaceans from the pristine Antarctic Ocean that serve as a critical food source for whales, seals, and other marine life. What makes krill oil unique is its natural phospholipid structure, which allows your body to absorb and utilize omega-3 fatty acids more effectively than traditional fish oil supplements.

The Phospholipid Advantage

Unlike fish oil, where omega-3s are bound to triglycerides, krill oil contains EPA and DHA attached to phospholipids – the same type of molecules that make up your cell membranes. This natural compatibility means krill oil omega-3s are readily absorbed and transported directly to where your body needs them most. Research shows that phospholipid-bound omega-3s from krill oil demonstrate superior bioavailability, allowing you to achieve optimal omega-3 levels more efficiently.

The phospholipid structure also explains why krill oil doesn’t cause the fishy burps often associated with fish oil supplements. Phospholipids naturally blend with stomach fluids rather than floating on top, creating a more comfortable supplementation experience.

Enhanced with Vitamin K2

This formula goes beyond basic omega-3 support by including 19mcg of Vitamin K2 in the menaquinone-7 (MK-7) form. Vitamin K2 plays a crucial role in calcium metabolism, helping direct calcium to your bones where it belongs while preventing unwanted calcium deposits in your arteries. This makes it an ideal complement to krill oil’s cardiovascular benefits.

The combination of krill oil and Vitamin K2 creates synergistic support for both heart and bone health. While the omega-3s support healthy inflammatory responses and cardiovascular function, Vitamin K2 helps maintain arterial flexibility and bone strength.

Natural Antioxidant Protection

Antarctic krill naturally contains astaxanthin, a powerful carotenoid antioxidant that gives krill oil its distinctive red color. Astaxanthin provides additional cellular protection and helps preserve the integrity of the omega-3 fatty acids in the supplement. This natural antioxidant works alongside the omega-3s to support overall cellular health.

Frequently Asked Questions

Krill oil contains omega-3 fatty acids bound to phospholipids, the same molecules that make up cell membranes, while fish oil contains omega-3s bound to triglycerides. This phospholipid structure allows for better absorption and eliminates the fishy aftertaste common with fish oil supplements. Research shows that krill oil may provide superior bioavailability of omega-3s.

Vitamin K2 (menaquinone-7) complements krill oil’s cardiovascular benefits by supporting proper calcium metabolism. It helps direct calcium to bones where it’s needed while preventing calcium buildup in arteries. This combination provides comprehensive support for both heart and bone health.

Each softgel provides 90mg of EPA and 65mg of DHA, totaling 155mg of beneficial omega-3 fatty acids. The phospholipid-bound structure of these omega-3s from krill oil may allow for more efficient absorption than equivalent amounts from traditional fish oil.

Yes, Nature’s Sunshine sources its krill oil from Antarctic krill, which are harvested under strict regulations to ensure sustainability. Antarctic krill populations are carefully monitored and managed to protect this vital marine ecosystem.

Krill Oil with K2 can generally be taken with other supplements. However, if you’re taking blood-thinning medications, consult with your healthcare provider before use, as both omega-3s and Vitamin K2 can affect blood clotting.
