Sports Research Antarctic Krill Oil

General omega-3 support, brain health, heart health, and inflammation management.. The product uses a high-quality Superba2™ krill oil, which is excellent. While 500mg is an adequate maintenance dose for general health, the specific EPA and DHA levels are quite low. The astaxanthin and choline amounts are negligible for therapeutic effect.

6.5/10
GOOD

Superba2 krill oil at 500mg hits the minimum effective dose for krill oil. But EPA+DHA combined is only 98mg, which even with krill's ~2x bioavailability advantage translates to roughly 150-200mg effective omega-3. Still below the 250mg cardiovascular minimum. Phospholipids at 200mg provide the delivery advantage. Astaxanthin at 50mcg is decorative. Better than MegaRed due to reaching krill oil's minimum effective dose, but omega-3 delivery remains inadequate for clinical benefit.
