Krill, an abundant renewable resource
Krill is a generic term used to designate all deepwater marine planktonic crustacean species. It looks like miniature shrimp, ranging between one and six centimeters in length. These 85 species represents the planet's most abundant animal biomass found in banks that may extend over several square kilometers. Krill Oil is sourced from krill from the Antarctic Ocean.
- Many studies have been undertaken and they show that the biomass of Antarctic krill, one of the world's most abundant biomass, may amount to 500 million tonnes. This standing stock is subject to annual natural reproduction providing renewable krill for predation, natural mortality and human exploitation.
- The precautionary catch limit was 6.6 million tonnes for 2008 and is reviewed annually. It was increased from 4.9 million tonnes in 2005/06 based on the results of recent surveys. Less than 2% of the precautionary catch limit is actually harvested, which means that the catch limit is unlikely to be reached in the foreseeable future.
- The annual natural reproduction of Antarctic krill is at least several hundred million tonnes constantly renewing the standing stock and granting sufficient krill for all marine mammals and fish, birds and human exploitation. Antarctic baleen whales are estimated to consume 85 million tonnes per year. Less than 120,000 tonnes of the annually set total catch limit of 6.6 million tonnes are harvested by fisheries.
Beyond Fish Oil
The clinical benefits of omega-3 fatty acids have been demonstrated in thousands of clinical trials conducted over the past 10 years. In 2008 alone, there were 1000 published papers and over 140 randomized clinical trials on omega-3 fatty acids. During this same period, there were some 15,000 media stories on omega-3 fatty acids. This makes omega-3 fatty acids among the most critically documented nutrients of all those currently under investigation.
Several groups have chosen to position krill oil as "better than fish oil." We recognize the tremendous rigor of the science of omega-3 fatty acids. Most of this work has been built on fish oil, while additional work has been built on algae oil, flax oil, krill oil, and other oils.
Additional Attributes
- Krill omega-3 fatty acids are bound to phospholipids, as opposed to triglycerides;
- Krill PL contain choline
- Astaxanthin, a naturally-occurring carotenoid molecule with powerful antioxidant activity.
Choline
Choline is found in krill phospholipids as part of the phosphatidylcholine molecule. Choline is not found in fish triglycerides. Choline is also one of the body's most important methyl donors, contributing one-carbon units much like folic acid and vitamin B12.
AstaxanthinKrill oil contains high levels of one of the most powerful natural antioxidants called Astaxanthin. Astaxanthin is a carotenoid molecule from the same family as beta-carotene, lycopene, and zeaxanthin. Astaxanthin is what gives salmon its red color. Krill get their astaxanthin from small phytoplankton, their primary source of food.
Krill oil is a food supplement and is not a medicine and is not intended to treat, cure or prevent a disease.
