Superba2™
A patented krill extract, naturally rich in phospholipid omega-3 for optimal absorption
Superba2™ is a patented premium krill oil, derived from Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba), a small shrimp living in the cold, pristine waters of Antarctica. Unlike conventional fish oils, the omega-3 EPA and DHA fatty acids in Superba2™ are mainly bound to phospholipids, a form naturally present in cell membranes and particularly well absorbed by the body.
Superba2™ also contains choline and natural astaxanthin, a powerful antioxidant that protects omega-3s from oxidation and helps protect cells against oxidative stress.
Thanks to its high bioavailability and exceptional quality, Superba2™ is now considered one of the world's leading premium krill oils.
Why we chose Superba2™
- Premium quality patented krill oil
- Highly absorbable phospholipid omega-3
- Naturally contains astaxanthin and choline
- Several clinical studies in humans
- Excellent purity, stability and tolerability
The studied benefits
Optimized omega-3 absorption
Studies show that Superba2™ phospholipid omega-3s are efficiently absorbed and integrated into cell membranes, thus promoting their use by the body.
Support for cardiovascular health
Thanks to its EPA and DHA content, Superba2™ contributes to normal heart function and helps maintain good cardiovascular health.
Support for cognitive functions
DHA is an essential component of nerve cells. Associated with the choline naturally present in krill, it contributes to good brain function and the maintenance of cognitive functions.
Enhanced antioxidant protection
The astaxanthin naturally present in Superba2™ protects omega-3 fatty acids from oxidation and helps protect cells against oxidative stress.
Overall balance of cell membranes
Phospholipids are a major component of cell membranes. Their intake promotes their flexibility, integrity and the proper functioning of cells.
