Description
California Gold Nutrition Antarctic Krill Oil is an omega-3 supplement built around one simple idea: getting EPA and DHA into a form your body can actually use well. Rather than relying on the standard fish oil triglyceride structure, this Antarctic krill oil binds its omega-3 fatty acids to phospholipids, the same molecules that make up your own cell membranes. It's finished with a natural strawberry and lemon flavour, so daily supplementation does not come with the fishy aftertaste some people associate with regular fish oil capsules.
Why krill oil instead of standard fish oil?
The debate between fish oil vs krill oil usually comes down to bioavailability. Because the omega-3s in krill oil are bound to phospholipids rather than triglycerides, many people find krill oil easier for their body to absorb and use compared with standard fish oil. Each capsule of this Antarctic krill oil also includes:
- EPA and DHA to support heart, brain and joint health
- Astaxanthin, a naturally occurring antioxidant found in krill, for added antioxidant protection
- Omega-3 phospholipids, a form of omega-3 many consider more bioavailable than standard fish oil
- A natural strawberry and lemon flavour rather than an unflavoured, fishy softgel
What's in the formula
Each softgel provides 500 mg of Antarctic krill oil, delivering a consistent dose of omega-3 phospholipids, EPA, DHA and astaxanthin in every capsule. It's a straightforward, single-ingredient formula, so there is nothing to second-guess about what you are taking each day.
How it fits into your routine
Krill oil capsules like this one are designed to slot into an existing supplement routine as an omega-3 top-up, alongside a generally balanced diet. Always follow the dosage directions on your product label, and speak with your pharmacist or doctor if you are taking medication or have a health condition, since omega-3 supplements can interact with some blood-thinning medicines.
If you are weighing up krill oil vs fish oil for your own routine, our California Gold Nutrition Omega-3 Premium Fish Oil Softgels is a good option to compare, since it uses the more traditional triglyceride form of fish oil at a higher milligram dose per softgel. Omega-3 supplements remain one of the most widely used supplement categories in Australia, so you are in good company if you are considering adding one to your day.
Available sizes
California Gold Nutrition Antarctic Krill Oil comes in two sizes to suit different needs:
- 30 capsules, ideal if you want to try it before committing to a larger bottle
- 120 capsules, better value for ongoing daily use
Whichever size you choose, this Antarctic krill oil supplement offers a genuine alternative to standard fish oil capsules for anyone specifically searching for krill oil supplements in Australia.
