There are a lot of supplements out there that provide omega-3 fatty acids, but when it comes to purchasing the right one for you, it can be challenging to determine which is best. Here at Purity Labs, we have done the legwork for you with the highest-quality krill oil you can buy. This provides you not only with your daily dosage of omega-3s but total confidence that the supplement you're taking contains only the best ingredients for optimal health.

What are Omega-3 Fatty Acids?

Omega-3 fatty acids are a type of fat necessary for our body's survival. Unfortunately, our bodies don't produce it on their own, so we get it through food or a supplement. (1)

There are three main types of fatty acids:

1. Alpha-Linolenic Acid (ALA) is our diet's most common fatty acid and is mainly used for energy (2). Although our body can convert a little ALA into EPA and then DHA, it is still not enough to match our bodily requirements. ALA is in plant-derived foods such as flaxseeds, canola oil, chia seeds, walnuts, and hemp seeds.
2. Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) is mostly found in animal products such as fatty fish. (2)
3. Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is the most important of the three because it is key to the health of the brain, eyes, and various other body parts. (2) Similarly to EPA, DHA mostly comes from animal products like eggs, meat, and dairy. Since our body can't produce this on its own, it has to be ingested through food or a good supplement.

What is Krill Oil?

A quality krill oil supplement can provide positive impacts both physically and mentally. Krill Oil is derived from small shrimp-like crustaceans rich in omega-3s, especially EPA and DHA. (3) The omega-3 fatty acids in krill oil differ from those in fish oil. Krill oil fatty acids are attached to fatty molecules called phospholipids, thought to be the building blocks of our cell membrane. Their water-soluble nature means the body easily absorbs them. And since omega-3 fatty acids are not created naturally in the body, it is vital to choose a high-quality source.

Mistakes to Avoid When Taking Krill Oil

1. Be consistent - To reap the benefits, it's essential to take it every day. Purchase a pill container to make it easier, or set an alarm to remind you.
2. Avoid taking supplements on an empty stomach -The majority of supplements are better absorbed when they are taken with food, and some cause discomfort when taken on an empty stomach, so "take with food" is just good advice for supplements in general.
3. Do not take half doses - Quality supplements are not cheap, so you may be tempted to stretch them as far as you can. But in the end, this is a lose/lose proposition. The proper dosing is meant to deliver the results you're looking for. The wrong dose will not only fail to deliver the results, it will still cost money. Best to get what you paid for.
4. Store in the right conditions - For Krill Oil to maintain its freshness, it must be kept in a cool, dry place. Avoid leaving it unsealed for too long, in extreme heat or cold, or direct sunlight.
5. Drink plenty of water - Water is critical to our health in various ways, including providing the hydration that the body needs to regenerate our cells. Water keeps our organs healthy and aids in the absorption of nutrients.
