Health Benefits
Joint healthThe natural antioxidant astaxanthin contained in Antarctic krill oil is attached to phospholipids, thus producing a more stable and long-lasting antioxidant effect [1]. The strong antioxidant properties of astaxanthin help inhibit free radicals and reduce their oxidative damage to joints [2]. At the same time, when the body is exercising, the muscles will release free radicals. If these free radicals are not dealt with in time by antioxidants, they will produce oxidative stress, which is just muscle soreness or damage to muscle tissue. Studies have shown that astaxanthin in Antarctic krill oil can As an antioxidant, it inhibits the oxidative damage caused by free radicals to the body [3].
The balance of polyunsaturated fatty acids in the body is key to maintaining cell membrane health and hormone regulation. Omega-3 fatty acids in Antarctic krill oil promote the production of anti-inflammatory prostaglandins, and its content is much higher than that of Omega-6 fatty acids, which can balance the body's absorption of Omega-6, reduce the accumulation of Omega-6 in the body, and effectively inhibit inflammation [4].
