What is the difference between Antarctic Krill Oil and Alaskan Cod Liver Oil? Which one should I take?
The choice is yours. Both are outstanding sources of omega-3 fatty acids, especially DHA and EPA.
With Krill Oil, a larger portion of the DHA and EPA is in the form of phospholipids, which may provide Krill Oil with a higher bioavailability compared to Cod Liver Oil.
However, while you may need a smaller dose of Krill Oil because of its enhanced absorption, Cod Liver Oil contains greater amounts of DHA and EPA.
Krill Oil has the advantage of containing natural astaxanthin, a potent antioxidant, while Cod Liver Oil is low in antioxidants. On the other hand, Cod Liver Oil is a natural source of Vitamins A and D and provides pro-resolving mediators (PRMs) which support your body’s normal inflammatory response and healthy tissue rejuvenation.*
The final difference is taste. While you would only want to take krill Oil in capsule form because of its strong flavor, you can enjoy our mild-tasting Wild Caught Alaskan Cod Liver Oil with Natural Lemon Flavor by the spoonful.
