Ultra Red Krill Oil

Pure Krill Oil: Superior Omega-3

Ultra Red Krill Oil offers a superior source of Omega-3 with many important additional benefits, designed to meet the highest standards of quality, purity and effectiveness.

Ultra Red Krill Oil provides 500mg of pure Krill oil, a special source of Omega-3 with a high concentration of marine phospholipids so may be better utilised in the body than standard Omega-3 found in fish oil. Ultra Red Krill Oil provides essential fatty acids, all within an easier to swallow smaller capsule with no unpleasant fishy odour, taste or aftertaste.

As well as Omega-9 fatty acids, Ultra Red Krill provides Omega-3, a rich source of the essential fatty acids DHA (Docosahexaenoic Acid) and EPA (Eicosapentaenoic Acid).

EPA and DHA are classed as essential fatty acids because they cannot be made efficiently by the body and must be obtained through the diet.

- DHA contributes to the maintenance of normal vision and brain function¹

- DHA and EPA contribute to the normal function of the heart²

Important: Ultra Red Krill contains only pure Krill oil, rather than Krill oil combined with ordinary fish oil as found in some products.

What are the benefits of Krill Oil over other Fish Oils?

Ultra Red Krill Oil is a smaller soft gel capsule than most traditional Omega-3 supplements and has no fishy odour or taste. Unlike the fatty acids provided by other sources of Omega-3, Ultra Red Krill Oil is not dependent on bile for digestion and disperses in water. This means Ultra Red Krill Oil is able to disperse in the small intestine not the stomach so there is no unpleasant fishy taste, burping, odour or reflux.

Krill Oil Omega-3 is also naturally low in toxicity and pollutant free compared to other sources of Omega-3.

✓ High Concentration Phospholipids for superior Omega-3 absorption
✓ High quality source of EPA and DHA
✓ 100% natural Antarctic Krill oil
✓ No fishy taste
✓ No fishy odour
✓ No reflux
✓ Small capsule

With naturally present Marine Phospholipids

The Omega-3 in Ultra Red Krill Oil has been shown to have the same benefits as fish oil Omega-3 which supports normal heart and brain function^1,2, but with better efficiency due to the presence of phospholipids.

Research indicates that phospholipid bound Omega-3 fatty acids may have greater bioavailability for cell growth and functioning, compared with Omega-3 triglycerides³.

Ultra Red Krill Oil takes the Omega-3 phospholipid form, rather than the Omega-3 triglyceride form found in fish and cod liver oils.

Phospholipids are key structural components of our cell membranes, which are involved in the transport of molecules across the cell membrane. Ultra Red Krill Oil provides Omega-3 in phospholipid form, mainly as phosphatidylcholine, which means it is more easily transported across cell membranes to where it is utilised.

Omega-3 phospholipids follow simpler digestion and distribution routes in the human body. Simpler digestion in the small intestine before absorption is one of the possible reasons for the greater uptake of Omega-3 phospholipids in the human body compared with standard Omega-3 triglycerides.

Ultra Red Krill Oil and the environment

Ultra Red Krill Oil is a pure, natural source of Omega-3 providing EPA and DHA as well as Astaxanthin. Harvested in the Antarctic, Krill Oil is pollutant free, with presence of natural Astaxanthin giving the oil a deep red colour.

The presence of Astaxanthin also helps to keep Krill oil stable without the need of additives, protecting the beneficial Omega-3 fatty acids from becoming rancid due to oxidisation. Consumers can feel assured that they are choosing the highest quality form of Omega-3.

Ultra Red Krill Oil is sourced by Aker BioMarine who co-operate closely with WWF-Norway (World Wide Fund for Nature) to support work on sustainable Krill management.

In June 2010, Aker BioMarine's krill fishing operations received MSC certification as a sustainable fishery, making Aker the first MSC-certified krill fishery in the world.

Proprietary Eco-Harvesting technology uses a specially designed trawl system that singles out unwanted "by-catch" and releases it unharmed. Eco-Harvesting restricts environmental impact and prevents enzymatic degradation of the Krill oil, allowing for greater preservation of all key nutrients in the end products, and provides for complete utilization of the product without waste.

Why has Ultra Red Krill Oil been developed?

Ultra Red Krill Oil is a superior source of Omega-3 with high concentration marine phospholipids which means it is more easily absorbed by the body. Ultra Red Krill Oil has no unpleasant fishy odour, taste or aftertaste.

Ultra Red Krill provides Omega-3, a rich source of the essential fatty acids DHA (Docosahexaenoic Acid) and EPA (Eicosapentaenoic Acid) to help maintain normal health and wellbeing:

DHA contributes to the maintenance of normal vision & brain function ¹
DHA and EPA contribute to the normal function of the heart ²

What is the difference between Ultra Red Krill Oil and fish oils?

Ultra Red Krill Oil offers an alternative source of Omega-3 with additional benefits. Ultra Red Krill Oil has been shown to have the same benefits as fish oil Omega-3 with better efficiency due to the presence of phospholipids, and no fishy odour or reflux.

What are Omega-3 EPA and DHA fatty acids?

Omega-3 Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA) and Eicosapentaenoic Acid (EPA) are “essential” fatty acids because they cannot be made by the body efficiently and therefore must be obtained from the diet. Eating a diet rich in Omega-3 fatty acids or by taking a supplement such as Vitabiotics' Ultra Red Krill Oil, may help to safeguard the body's requirement for Omega-3 fatty acids.

How pure is Ultra Red Krill Oil?

Harvested in some of the world's cleanest waters, Krill oil is pollutant free with the naturally occurring Astaxanthin giving the oil a deep red colour. The presence of Astaxanthin also helps to keep the Krill oil stable without the need of additives, protecting the beneficial Omega-3 fatty acids from becoming rancid due to oxidisation. Ultra Red Krill is 100% pure and unlike some Krill oils is not blended with ordinary fish oil.

When is Ultra Red Krill Oil recommended?

Ultra Red Krill Oil is recommended as a nutritional safeguard. A general decline in oily fish consumption among the population means that many individuals may be advised to take an Omega-3 supplement to help safeguard their intake of essential fatty acids to support their health. Ultra Red Krill Oil may be of particular interest to those individuals with concerns about their heart, brain and vision as it contains DHA which contributes to the maintenance of normal vision and brain function, plus DHA and EPA which contribute to the normal function of the heart.

Can Ultra Red Krill Oil be used during pregnancy and breast-feeding?

During pregnancy, we recommend supplements specially formulated for this time, such as Vitabiotics' Pregnacare Plus [NG1] - the original Pregnacare tablets containing a careful combination of 19 vitamins and minerals, along with specially formulated Omega-3 capsules for pregnancy (with 300mg DHA), designed for use from before conception, throughout pregnancy and whilst breast-feeding.

How many capsules does one pack of Ultra Red Krill Oil contain?

Ultra Red Krill Oil contains 30 capsules per pack.

How and when should Ultra Red Krill Oil be taken?

One or two capsules are recommended per day with your main meal. Swallow with water or a cold drink. Not to be chewed. Do not exceed the recommended intake. Ultra Red Krill Oil should only be taken on a full stomach.

Are there any undesired effects whilst taking Ultra Red Krill Oil?

Ultra Red Krill Oil has no known side effects when taken as directed. As with other food supplements, seek professional advice before using if you are pregnant, breast-feeding or suffer from food allergies, or are allergic to shellfish or shellfish products. If you have epilepsy or are taking oral anticoagulants (blood thinners) consult your doctor or pharmacist before using this product.

How should I store Ultra Red Krill Oil?

The capsules are best stored at or below 25°C, protected from sunlight and direct heat. Keep out of sight and reach of children.

How long does it take to experience any benefits?

Results vary amongst individuals, but in most cases we would expect the beneficial effects of Ultra Red Krill Oil to build up over several weeks. There is no maximum length of time over which Ultra Red Krill Oil may be taken. A regular intake is recommended.

Can Ultra Red Krill Oil be taken with medicines simultaneously?

Generally Ultra Red Krill Oil can be taken alongside medications. However, for specific advice on taking Ultra Red Krill Oil with medicines, we recommend that you contact your doctor or pharmacist first.

Is Ultra Red Krill Oil recommended with any other Vitabiotics' product(s)?

Ultra Red Krill Oil can be used alongside the majority of Vitabiotics' products.

Need help swallowing a tablet or capsule?

Difficulty in swallowing tablets and capsules is quite a common experience. Vitabiotics have researched this extensively and recommend after chewing some food (e.g. banana), just before you swallow, pop it into your mouth and swallow it together with the chewed food, followed by some liquid. The throat opens up wider to swallow the chewed food and so it should go down with greater ease. Alternatively, it may be swallowed with thicker liquids such as yoghurts or smoothies.

When you choose Ultra Red Krill Oil, you get the purest, highest-quality Antarctic Krill Oil, with Omega-3 and naturally present Marine Phospholipids.
