Hi Timothy C. Kim, There are no detectable values of vitamin D in our krill oil. Oftentimes when vitamin D is present in a fish oil supplement, it has been added for additional benefits. Very rarely is vitamin D found in a krill oil product. Hope this helps answer your question, and if you have any other questions you can reach us by responding to this comment thread or by email at amazon@vivalabs.com.

Barbette D. yes Its natural. The main benefits of Krill are a 1000 times more powerful than fish oil to not only help smooth skin, hair and nails, but has great heart benefits as well. I am a body builder and its also has great benefits to decrease inflamation in joints and I like the smooth face it gives me when i shave, which could be smooth legs and underarms for a woman. One tiny fact. The largest animal in the world (the great blue whale) eats 100% Krill which are small like shrimp in the artic cold waters for their amazing strength and size.

According to the box each pill is a proprietary blend, 353 mg, of Krill Oil (source of Omega-3) Hyaluronic Acid, and Astaxanthin. There is no other breakdown. It works better for me than Cosamin, glucosamine and chondroitin, which I took for years. Hope this helps.

To answer your question on omega-3 forms...not sustainability....the omega-3s in krill oil are bound by phospholipids, which are thought to be somewhat better absorbed by our bodies than the triglyceride bonding in fish oils. But the thing is, the amount of omega-3 in krill oil is very minor compared to fish oils. Plus, there are solvents left over in the krill oil from extraction. Fish oil has no left over solvents. If you are looking for high amounts of omega-3, go with fish oil. If you want to pay excessive amounts of money for the same omega-3s in krill, go ahead. I choose the fish oil. :) And for sustainability, they say that krill are more sustainable than fish, but only time will tell. Again, it takes a LOT more krill to make any omega-3s in any quantity compared to fish. Personally, I think krill is turning out to be over rated. But to each his/her own.

No, krill are tiny little crustaceans, ocean creatures. Krill oil comes from processing the animals.

NO. It is not. As has been said, you can take both because Flax oil only contains omega-3 in ALA form (check the label) and that form, as with all plant-sourced omega-3 (except for algae), is very hard for our bodies to convert to any useful omega-3s (EPA and DHA). Fish oils, on the other hand, are "good to go" with no conversion necessary. I love flax for its moisturizing abilities, but also take fish oil as my real omega-3 source. As for flax being somehow cleaner because this one is organic, look for a molecularly distilled, domestic (Alaskan) type of fish oil (or just pure wild salmon oil) and you will be fine. I use Fisol by Nature's Way. Clean and Alaskan pollack and hake sourced. NO. It is not.

Yes the Krill is cold processed, as far as hexane you might want to call the company, because it doesn't say on the bottle.

The more specific answer is why would anyone, not just a woman need krill oil? We all need healthy sources of animal based omega-3 fats that are high in DHA. Your body doesn't convert plant based omega-3 fats to DHA very well as it has two less carbons and is primarily ALA. Omega-3 fats are vital to your heart health, weight loss and prevention of nearly every chronic degenerative disease. Ideally we should get them from fish just like our ancestors but most fish is now contaminated with mercury and PCBs. Krill are very tiny and don't live long enough to become contaminated with these toxins so they are very clean. Additionally they have a special phospholipid that increases their absorption so from that perspective they are superior to fish oil. Another benefit is that they are loaded with astaxanthin which is a potent antioxidant that prevents oxidation of the perishable omega-3 fats in krill. Fish oil does not have any astaxanthin and runs the risk of oxidation.

The capsule is made of fish gel. There is no mention of bovine. This is my favorite choice of a krill oil product since it has so much astaxanthin and phospholipids in it. I also take Now Ultra Omega 3s. 2 of each daily. .

Sorry that I can't answer your immediate question, but check out this site. http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2008/08/14/is-krill-oil-48-times-better-than-fish-oil.aspx I don't know if it's a truthful review or biased in some way. I have taken the krill oil for the last several months and I feel better than ever. I even cut back to 1 capsule a day. The problem is omega 3 is a product that works in the background and doesn't present immediate benefits. So whether it's the krill oil or something else, I can't be certain. You might investigate web sites to get a better response to your question.
