It's widely accepted and undisputed that omega-3 fats are essential to the human body, and we need them in order to achieve optimal health. The question, however, is what is the best source of omega-3 fats. Some believe that the best source of omega-3 fats is fish oil, but new research has indicated that the best source may in fact be krill oil. There are two major reasons that krill oil is superior to fish oil. First, krill oil contains a very powerful and fat-soluble antioxidant known as astaxanthin. Some of the many benefits of astaxanthin are an improvement in the appearance of your skin, the prevention of wrinkles and age spots, support for your joints and skeleton, and improved brain functionality. Scientific research demonstrating the importance of antioxidants has been very consistent. Evidence supports its ability to improve the health of your heart, boost your immune system, provide protection against harmful free radicals, and improve your memory. The other reason scientists believe that krill oil might be a better source of omega-3s than fish oil is due to the presence of phospholipids. Krill oil, just like fish oil, contains the ever-important polyunsaturated omega-3 fatty acids, EPA and DHA. The difference, however, is that the fatty acids in krill oil are bound to phospholipids. This structural difference allows EPA and DHA to be more easily absorbed into your body. It also helps you to avoid that fishy aftertaste that you sometimes get from taking a fish oil supplement.
