Krill Oil Testing Raises The Bar


I get asked quite often why we use the krill oil we do and not other types of raw krill oil.  What is the difference is the main question I get asked.

The main difference is quality, which is why we use krill oil instead of fish oil.  We also use the type of raw krill oil we do is because of the level of quality that our supplier demands and that we demand.

Recently Enzymotec who is our supplier of our raw krill oil introduced a new stability test for krill oil which is reliable and easy to use.  

What they are able to test for is the effects of heat, humidity and light which can deteriorate krill oil and make it less effective.  

Krill oil is susceptible to oxidation just like fish oil and the biggest problem suppliers have is keeping their raw oil from going rancid unless you are a company that knows exactly what you are doing.  

This test was designed to be used by anyone in the industry who buys raw krill and wants to ensure that the oil is of the highest quality.  

This is really important since numerous fish oil products have recently failed rancidity tests and even some krill oils have failed as well when ConsumerLab.com tested these fish oils and krill oils.

Something else most fish oil and krill oil suppliers do NOT do is provide the levels of tri methyl amine (TMA) and total volatile nitrogen (TVN).  These TMA and TNA levels are generally accepted as measures of seafood freshness.  Our supplier has been providing this information on their data sheets.

Our supplier is also urging the EU Good Manufacturing Practices to require disclosure and documentation of TMA and TVN levels as this would boost consumer confidence across the entire industry.  

Raising the bar on quality control like what I mentioned above is just another reason why we use the highest quality krill oil on the market. Data and tests like this ensures that we are providing you with the highest quality krill oil that you can get your hands on.
