How Does It Work?
Omega-3 Fatty Acids: Supports Cardiovascular Health†
MegaRed® contains oil from 100% pure Antarctic krill, tiny crustaceans that thrive in the pristine waters of the Antarctic Ocean. MegaRed® provides an optimal combination of Omega-3 fatty acids DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) and EPA (eicosapentaeonic acid), essential fatty acids that may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease.1
MegaRed® has been shown to significantly increase your Omega-3 Index in just 30 days.2 The Omega-3 Index is a measure of the amount of Omega-3 fatty acids in your body's cells. A higher Omega-3 Index is associated with better cardiovascular health and other health benefits.
Phospholipids: No Fishy Odor or Aftertaste
Because the Omega-3 fatty acids in MegaRed® krill oil are carried to the body's cells in phospholipid form, they are easily recognized, incorporated and utilized by your body. MegaRed® krill oil mixes well in the stomach for efficient digestion. Importantly, because MegaRed® Omega-3's are carried in phospholipid form, there is no fishy aftertaste.
Astaxanthin: Provides Carotenoid and Antioxidant Benefits†
Astaxanthin is a naturally-occurring carotenoid and powerful antioxidant. Its unique molecular structure makes it very efficient at neutralizing free radicals throughout the body, supporting overall cardiovascular health.†

Types of Omega-3
Eicosapentaenoic acid — a long chain Omega-3 fatty acid found in cold water fish, algae and krill. Supports heart health and joint health.†
Docosahexaenoic acid — a long chain Omega-3 fatty acid found in cold water fish, algae and krill. Helps support heart health and brain health.†
Alpha linolenic acid — a short-chain Omega-3 fatty acid found in nuts and seeds. May help promote cardiovascular health.†
Good Sources of Omega-3
Our bodies can’t make Omega-3 fatty acids so we have to rely on dietary sources. Cold water seafood like salmon, tuna, halibut and krill are among the best sources, but Omega-3 fatty acids can also be found in some plants and nut oils. At least two servings of cold water fish a week are recommended to get adequate amounts of Omega-3.
