Goodness Krill Oil
Omega-3s in phospholipid form — with natural astaxanthin
Goodness Krill Oil provides Omega-3s in phospholipid form to support the heart, brain, and overall wellness. The formula contains Antarctic krill oil, rich in EPA, DHA, phospholipids, astaxanthin, and choline, with a low likelihood of fishy aftertaste.
What is Krill Oil, and how is it different from fish oil?
Krill oil is derived from Antarctic krill, a small shrimp-like crustacean found in the waters of the Southern Ocean. Unlike fish oil, the Omega-3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA) in krill oil are bound to Phospholipids, which may make them more easily absorbed by the body. Additionally, krill oil contains Astaxanthin, a natural antioxidant that helps protect the oil from oxidation, reducing the risk of fishy aftertaste.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes Goodness Krill Oil better than fish oil?
In Goodness Krill Oil, Omega-3s are bound to phospholipids, which may make them easier for your body to absorb. It is also less likely to cause a fishy aftertaste, and it naturally contains astaxanthin, an antioxidant that fish oil doesn’t naturally contain.
How does krill oil compare to other Omega-3 supplements like flaxseed oil?
While flaxseed oil is a plant-based source of Omega-3s, it primarily contains ALA (alpha-linolenic acid), which the body needs to convert into EPA and DHA—an inefficient process, as only a small percentage of ALA gets converted. Krill oil, on the other hand, provides EPA and DHA directly.
Where does Goodness Krill Oil come from?
Goodness Krill Oil is sourced from Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba), a sustainably managed resource. Krill are at the bottom of the food chain, so they tend to accumulate fewer contaminants such as mercury and heavy metals than larger fish.
Does Goodness Krill Oil have a fishy aftertaste?
No, one of the major advantages of Goodness Krill Oil is that it does not have a fishy aftertaste or cause “fish burps,” which are common with traditional fish oil supplements. The phospholipid-bound Omega-3s in krill oil are absorbed more efficiently and digested more smoothly.
Is Goodness Krill Oil suitable for children?
Goodness Krill Oil is intended for adults. For children, consult a doctor or pharmacist before use.
Is Goodness Krill Oil sustainably sourced?
Yes, our krill oil is harvested from the waters of Antarctica using environmentally responsible methods. We are committed to protecting marine ecosystems and ensuring the long-term sustainability of krill populations.
Is it safe to take Goodness Krill Oil in the long term?
Goodness Krill Oil is intended for regular daily use at the recommended dosage. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, taking medication (especially blood thinners), or planning long-term use, consult your doctor or pharmacist.
How is Goodness Krill Oil tested for purity and quality?
Goodness Krill Oil is produced to the highest quality standards. It undergoes rigorous testing for purity, potency, and contaminants such as heavy metals and toxins. Our krill oil is sourced from sustainable fisheries and processed to retain its maximum nutritional value, ensuring you receive a clean, effective product.
How soon after starting Goodness Krill Oil will I see results?
Individual results may vary. Omega-3 supplements are generally taken consistently over several weeks to months as part of a healthy diet and lifestyle.
Why is astaxanthin important in Goodness Krill Oil?
Astaxanthin is an antioxidant naturally present in krill oil and gives it its reddish colour. It contributes to the product’s stability, helping to prevent the oil from becoming rancid.
What is the difference between EPA and DHA in Goodness Krill Oil?
Both EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) are omega-3 fatty acids found in Goodness Krill Oil. EPA and DHA contribute to the normal function of the heart, with a daily intake of at least 250 mg.
Is Goodness Krill Oil safe for people with high cholesterol?
People with high cholesterol, or those taking cholesterol-lowering or blood-thinning medication, should consult their doctor before using Goodness Krill Oil.
What age groups can benefit from taking Goodness Krill Oil?
Goodness Krill Oil can benefit a wide range of age groups:
- Children: Consult a doctor or pharmacist before use.
- Adults: Enhances heart, brain, joint, and skin health.
- Seniors: Supports normal brain function and overall wellbeing as part of healthy ageing.
How is Goodness Krill Oil packaged to maintain freshness?
Goodness Krill Oil is packaged in PVC aluminum blisters, which provide superior protection by individually sealing each soft gel. This keeps the softgels shielded from air, light, and moisture, all of which can degrade the quality of the oil over time. In contrast, krill oil supplements sold in bottles are often exposed to air each time the bottle is opened, leading to oxidation and rancidity over time. Our blister packaging ensures that Goodness Krill Oil remains fresh and potent until you use it, with no loss of quality from exposure to the elements.
How is krill oil extracted from krill?
Goodness Krill Oil is made from krill harvested in the waters of Antarctica, where krill fishing is regulated to help protect the marine ecosystem.
Once harvested, the krill undergo a cold-press extraction process, which helps preserve the nutritional integrity of the oil. This gentle method, used instead of high heat or chemical solvents, helps keep sensitive nutrients such as omega-3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA), phospholipids and astaxanthin intact.
The extraction process keeps Goodness Krill Oil free from harmful residues by avoiding chemical solvents, resulting in a cleaner and purer product. The absence of excessive heat during extraction further ensures that the oil retains its natural potency, allowing consumers to experience its full range of health benefits.
Does Goodness Krill Oil interact with any specific foods or drinks?
No specific foods or drinks are known to interact with Goodness Krill Oil. However, taking the supplement with a meal that includes healthy fats (such as avocados, nuts, or olive oil) can enhance the absorption of Omega-3s.
Can I take Goodness Krill Oil if I don’t eat seafood?
Goodness Krill Oil can help people who eat little fish obtain EPA and DHA Omega-3 fatty acids. It is derived from krill (a crustacean) and is not suitable for people with shellfish allergy.
