NKO™ Krill Oil (Euphausia superba) — 1,000 mg NKO™ (Neptune Krill Oil™) is a sustainably harvested, wild-caught Antarctic krill oil ingredient produced by the Aker Group in an NSF-certified facility with full traceability from harvest to finished product — providing a cleaner and more transparently sourced marine lipid alternative to conventional fish oil, with naturally low bioaccumulation risk due to krill's position at the base of the Antarctic food chain. The defining clinical distinction of krill oil relative to fish oil is the phospholipid-bound delivery form of its EPA and DHA content — with omega-3 fatty acids esterified to phosphatidylcholine and other phospholipids rather than to triglycerides — enabling intestinal absorption through a micellar-independent mechanism that results in higher plasma and tissue omega-3 incorporation efficiency per absolute EPA/DHA dose. Phospholipid-bound DHA is specifically and preferentially transported across the blood-brain barrier by the Mfsd2a lysophosphatidylcholine transport protein — the dominant route for brain DHA uptake — resulting in more efficient neuronal membrane enrichment from phospholipid-DHA than from triglyceride-DHA at equivalent absolute doses, supporting cognitive function, memory, and mood regulation with clinical relevance exceeding that suggested by the EPA/DHA mg quantities alone.

Phospholipids — 400 mg (as Phosphatidylcholine) The 400 mg phospholipid fraction of NKO™ krill oil delivers phosphatidylcholine — the primary dietary source of choline — as a co-delivered essential nutrient structurally integral to the krill oil matrix rather than an added ingredient. Phosphatidylcholine provides choline for acetylcholine neurotransmission — the primary cholinergic neurotransmitter governing memory encoding, attention, and cognitive processing — and for neuronal membrane phospholipid synthesis and maintenance. Hepatically, phosphatidylcholine supports liver fat metabolism and biliary lecithin secretion, contributing to healthy hepatic lipid processing and bile composition. The phospholipid matrix of krill oil additionally functions as the structural vehicle for blood-brain barrier DHA transport, creating a self-contained omega-3 delivery and neurological uptake system that makes krill oil's cognitive support mechanisms mechanistically superior to triglyceride-form fish oil at comparable doses.

Astaxanthin (esterified) — 750 mcg Esterified astaxanthin is a naturally occurring xanthophyll carotenoid produced by the microalgae Haematococcus pluvialis and concentrated in the krill through their diet — delivered in its naturally esterified form, which is the predominant form in nature and the form with the most favorable absorption and tissue deposition profile. Astaxanthin is recognized as one of the most potent naturally occurring lipid-soluble antioxidants available, with singlet oxygen quenching capacity estimated to be 6,000 times greater than vitamin C and 110 times greater than vitamin E — providing powerful oxidative stability to the unsaturated fatty acids within the krill oil itself, significantly extending shelf stability without the need for additional synthetic antioxidants. Beyond its role as a formulation antioxidant, esterified astaxanthin provides clinically meaningful ocular antioxidant protection through its carotenoid deposition in the retina and macula, skin antioxidant and UV-protective activity through its accumulation in dermal tissue, and systemic anti-inflammatory activity through NF-κB modulation — contributing to the formula's comprehensive healthy aging, vision, and skin support profile.

Additional Information

When to use it:Krill Oil is appropriate for practitioner-directed use in adult clients requiring bioavailable omega-3 EPA and DHA support for cardiovascular health, cognitive function, memory and focus, joint comfort and mobility, skin elasticity and hydration, and ocular health — particularly clients who experience digestive discomfort or fishy aftertaste with conventional fish oil products, those who prefer smaller softgels for swallowing comfort, and clients who value the sustainability and full traceability of wild-caught Antarctic krill sourcing. Two softgels daily with food provides the full NKO™ serving with optimal fat-co-ingestion for phospholipid absorption. This formula is contraindicated in clients with crustacean shellfish allergy, blood coagulation conditions, or those taking anticoagulant medications without appropriate clinical oversight.

Product Description

Krill Oil is a sustainably sourced, wild-caught Antarctic krill oil formula developed by DaVinci Labs, featuring NKO™ (Neptune Krill Oil™) — a trademark ingredient of the Aker Group — delivering 1,000 mg ofEuphausia superbakrill oil per two-softgel serving, yielding 400 mg phospholipids, 250 mg total omega-3 fatty acids (135 mg EPA and 60 mg DHA), and 750 mcg esterified astaxanthin. NKO™ is produced in an NSF-certified facility and third-party tested for purity and quality, with full traceability from harvest to finished product. Unlike conventional fish oil omega-3 supplements, krill oil delivers EPA and DHA bound to phospholipids — primarily phosphatidylcholine — rather than triglycerides, providing a delivery form that is absorbed more rapidly and efficiently across intestinal membranes without requiring micelle formation, and that directly escorts DHA across the blood-brain barrier through phospholipid-specific transport mechanisms. The naturally occurring astaxanthin content provides built-in oxidative stability and ocular and skin antioxidant support. Designed for practitioner-directed use in cardiovascular, cognitive, joint, skin, and healthy aging protocols, Krill Oil provides a cleaner, smaller, and more bioavailable alternative to conventional fish oil softgels without fishy aftertaste.

How it works

How it works:Krill Oil supports cardiovascular, cognitive, joint, skin, and ocular health through the unique bioavailability advantages and complete nutritional profile of phospholipid-bound EPA and DHA alongside choline and astaxanthin. The phospholipid-bound delivery of omega-3 fatty acids in krill oil provides superior absorption efficiency compared to triglyceride-form fish oil — with phospholipid-EPA and DHA absorbed through a micellar-independent intestinal transport mechanism that results in higher plasma omega-3 incorporation per dose. Phospholipid-bound DHA is specifically recognized by phospholipid transfer proteins that escort DHA across the blood-brain barrier via the Mfsd2a transport pathway — the primary route for brain DHA uptake that preferentially transports phospholipid-DHA over triglyceride-DHA — supporting more efficient neuronal membrane enrichment and cognitive benefit per serving. The phosphatidylcholine fraction of krill oil (400 mg phospholipids per serving) simultaneously provides choline — an essential nutrient for acetylcholine neurotransmission, neuronal membrane integrity, and liver fat metabolism — as a co-delivered nutrient inherent to the phospholipid structure. EPA (135 mg) and DHA (60 mg) provide their well-established cardiovascular support through Series 3 prostaglandin and Specialized Pro-resolving Mediator production, supporting healthy blood glucose, cholesterol within normal ranges, platelet aggregation balance, and a normal inflammatory response. Esterified astaxanthin (750 mcg) — one of the most potent lipid-soluble antioxidants known — provides oxidative stability to the krill oil formulation itself while simultaneously delivering meaningful ocular and skin antioxidant activity through its carotenoid deposition in retinal and skin tissue.
