For omega-3 nutrition that’s easy for the body to digest and use, make Swanson EFAs Krill Oil & Astaxanthin part of your daily wellness regimen. The omega-3s in krill oil are in the form of water-dispersible phospholipids, which makes them readily available to the body and helps avoid the fishy burp often experienced with fish oils. Specifically, the EPA and DHA found in krill oil are important for neuronal health and signaling activity, integrity of the blood-brain barrier and brain blood flow. Krill oil naturally contains high levels of phosphatidylcholine, which is important for cellular membrane integrity, helping to regulate lipid metabolism and support healthy cognitive function.
Our softgels feature fully traceable and sustainably harvested 100% pure Superba2™ krill oil fortified with algae-derived astaxanthin for an additional antioxidant boost. The antioxidant properties of astaxanthin also offer support for connective tissues throughout the body including joints and tendons as well as healthy skin. It may also protect the heart and blood vessels against reactive oxygen species (ROS) and free radicals and promote healthy eye function by supporting resiliency of cellular membranes. Emerging research indicates that astaxanthin may also offer benefits for exercise performance and recovery, the immune system, and general healthy aging.
Superba2 Krill Oil softgels are produced from only the finest wild-caught Antarctic krill, certified by the Marine Stewardship Council for sustainable and traceable harvest practices, and by IKOS (International Krill Oil Standards) for astaxanthin content and freshness. Swanson Krill Oil & Astaxanthin is made with patented Flexitech™ technology, which helps remove unwanted salts and other impurities to produce a high-quality krill oil with improved smell and taste.

FAQ
- What Are the Health Benefits of Krill Oil?
Krill oil is a source of omega-3 fatty acids, including EPA and DHA, which support heart, brain, and overall wellness. It also naturally contains phospholipids, which help deliver omega-3s, making krill oil a popular alternative to traditional fish oil supplements. - What Are the Health Benefits of Astaxanthin?
Astaxanthin is a naturally occurring carotenoid known for its powerful antioxidant properties. It helps protect cells from oxidative stress and supports overall wellness, making it a popular ingredient in healthy aging and daily wellness supplements. - Why Combine Krill Oil and Astaxanthin?
Krill oil and astaxanthin complement each other by providing both omega-3 fatty acids and antioxidant support. While krill oil delivers EPA and DHA for cardiovascular, cognitive, and overall wellness, astaxanthin helps provide antioxidant protection, creating a well-rounded formula for everyday health support. - What Are Phospholipids and Why Are They Important?
Phospholipids are naturally occurring fats that form the structure of cell membranes throughout the body. In krill oil, omega-3 fatty acids are naturally bound to phospholipids, a unique form that helps distinguish krill oil from traditional fish oil supplements. - Does Krill Oil Cause Fishy Burps?
Many people report that krill oil is less likely to cause fishy burps or aftertaste than traditional fish oil. While individual experiences may vary, krill oil is often chosen by those seeking an omega-3 supplement with a milder taste and odor. - Is Swanson Krill Oil & Astaxanthin Suitable for Special Diets?
Swanson Krill Oil & Astaxanthin is non-GMO. However, it is not suitable for vegan or vegetarian diets because it contains krill oil and gelatin softgels. Individuals with shellfish allergies should also avoid this product.
