Kori Krill Oil contains Omega-3 EPA & DHA, two important nutrients for the human brain. Omega-3 EPA seems more influential on mood and behavior, whereas Omega-3 DHA is essential to both prenatal and postnatal brain development. Unlike fish oil, Kori delivers these Omega-3s in their most natural phospholipid form. Phospholipids assist with Omega-3 DHA transfer across the blood brain barrier. A randomized controlled trial with participants taking 285 mg of Omega-3 EPA & DHA from krill oil in healthy elderly individuals suggests that krill oil may support cognitive function after 12 weeks. ¹

Omega-3 DHA is found in the highest concentration in the retina, playing an especially important role in keeping our eyes healthy. It also assists in tear production which is important for eye health and managing dry eye. Studies of animals like rodents and primates suggest that consuming Omega-3 fatty acids may help support retinal structure and health. ^{3, 4, 5}

The immune system is a complex and extensive system that is always on, in surveillance mode, working to keep our bodies as healthy as possible. One important immune system response is the inflammatory response. Omega-3 EPA & DHA nutrients in Kori Krill Oil play a very important role to help regulate inflammation in the body, supporting our cellular repair and internal defense systems, and maintaining the normal healthy status quo. This immune role complements the role of other well known immune health nutrients; in fact, evidence suggests that healthy intakes of Vitamin C, D, + Omega-3s may have a more positive impact on immune health than these vitamins alone.
