One species of krill, known as Antarctic krill, lives in the cold nutrient-rich waters of the Southern Ocean around Antarctica. Because these waters are so cold, and so nutrient-rich, Antarctic krill are not only abundant but packed with fatty oils containing a ton of valuable minerals and nutrients. They are at the bottom of the ocean's food chain, meaning they don't accumulate high levels of mercury or other contaminants like larger fish.
Krill oil is one of the richest available in the world.
In addition to being unbelievably rich in Omega-3 fatty acids, Antarctic krill oil also contains a whole lot more, providing a unique combination of nutrients with powerful proven benefits. As such, it is now one of the strongest and best dog supplements available.
There are two types of Omega-3 fatty acids that have been proven to have the best health benefits for dogs: DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) and EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid). Testing the effect of these different forms in dogs, the scientists found that the EPA and DHA in krill oil was absorbed by dogs’ blood faster than the EPA and DHA in standard fish oil, making krill oil an even better source of Omega 3s.
