Avoid Krill Oil

What is Krill Oil?

The Word Krill is Norwegian for “young fry of fish.” This tiny shrimp-like marine animal lives abundantly in the Antarctic waters of the Southern Ocean plus many other oceans.

It’s a natural food source for baleen whales, mantas, whale sharks, seals and a few seabird species. In terms of biomass, Krill is the most successful animal species on the planet!

Why is Krill Valuable?

Krill is a Rich Source of health promoting omega-3 fatty acids. More importantly, the oil (from Krill) is naturally rich in a potent antioxidant called astaxanthin along with small amounts of vitamin A and E.

2. NOT Sustainable - Instead of responsibly using aquaculture farms - Krill is just taken from our ocean ecosystem. This is a dangerous, non-renewable farming practice.

3. NOT the Best Choice - There is better way to get the incredible health benefits of this oil including superb antioxidant protection.

Krill Harvesting is NOT eco-certified! Companies in the business of krill harvesting would like us to believe that the industry is "heavily regulated". It's simple NOT true!

In fact, just about anyone can take a boat out, into open water, and start taking krill from the ocean without interference!

Did You Know that most krill producers don't even have their own boats? In other words, there is zero quality control over the oil you purchase in the health food store.

Now is The Time that we make our voices heard. Let's vote wisely with our consumer dollars and STOP buying non-renewable, sustainable foods!

WE MUST NOT support any business that threatens ocean life. I'm not writing this to "scare" anyone - this article is meant to empower you to make informed decisions about healthy living.

Let's support the life on our planet by only purchasing those items that support the biodiversity of our oceans.

Our Call to Action - Carefully consider the food and nutritional supplements we eat every meal of every day. The choices we make have a dramatic effect on the life of our planet plus the quality of our life.
