Miracle substance contributing to human health

Marine phospholipids
As one of the phospholipid species, marine phospholipids are the cornerstones of cell structures, so they can greatly improve the absorption efficiency of nutrition, and have various physiological effects such as antioxidation, maintaining cell activity, nourishing the brain and nerves, improving fat metabolism. They can be widely applied in pharmaceutical products, functional food, and food additives.

Antarctic krill in the deep sea

Where are they from?
Antarctic krill live in the last piece of clean land on the earth - the waters of the Antarctic. They make the seemingly barren Antarctic vibrant with life.
Rich in minerals and amino acids, Antarctic krill is a source of health for Antarctic creatures such as Antarctic terns, penguins, seals, and blue whales.

Discover the secrets of Antarctic krill oil

What is Antarctic krill oil?
Antarctic krill oil is a new nutritional food extracted from Antarctic krill. It is rich in nutrient elements such as marine phospholipids, Omega-3, choline and astaxanthin, and becomes the most ideal source for supplementing marine phospholipids and Omega-3 by virtue of its natural, safe and pure advantages.

Omega-3
DHA is a key nutrient for the brain and retina,
and the EPA can lower blood cholesterol
and viscosity.
Marine phospholipids
It is the substance fundamental to life
and can emulsify fats and cholesterol.
Choline
It is an essential human
nutrient for brain development.

The Forerunner, The Former Soviet Union
As the first country in harvesting for krill, the former Soviet Union, a leading fishery nation, was a forerunner in commercial harvesting for krill. The former Soviet Union established the “Antarctic Exploration Program” in the 1970s, and accounted for 93% of the world’s total Antarctic krill harvesting at one time prior to its disintegration.

The Follower, Japan
Japan managed to develop Antarctic krill harvesting and processing vessels as early as the early 1970s and accounted for 87.69% of the global krill harvesting with 57,000 tons of krill in 1993 alone.

“New Big Brother” Norway
In 2007, Norway officially overtook Japan to become the world’s biggest supplier of raw materials for Antarctic krill by virtue of Aker, an outstanding Norwegian firm specialized in ecological fishing and high-tech extraction technology.

China is Ushering of Antarctic Krill
In October 2007, China acceded to the Convention on the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources, and obtained the qualification for the development and utilization of Antarctic marine resources. In 2009, the “development and utilization of Antarctic krill biological resources” was included in the National High Technology Research and Development Program of China (863 Program).

ABOUT ANTARCTIC KRILL，YOU MAY NOT KNOW THESE FIVE THINGS.

Krill is fascinating. You may have heard of them. They are rich in omega-3, an important nutrient for heart health.

More importantly, krill oil naturally contains phospholipids, astaxanthin and vitamin choline.

However, you may know nothing about krill.


There are 85 different species in all the oceans in the world, but six of them live in the Antarctic Ocean.
  • 1）ANTARCTIC KRILL CAN BE SEEN FROM SPACE!
    Although the size of Antarctic krill is not larger than that of ordinary paper clips, it can still be seen from space. The huge krill population congregate in the Southern Ocean are so dense that they can still be observed above the earth's atmosphere. When krill herds get close to the surface of the water, they even dye the surface of the ocean red.
    1）ANTARCTIC KRILL CAN BE SEEN FROM SPACE!
  • 2）KRILL GROW AND SHRINK THROUGHOUT THEIR LIVES
    In the life cycle of Antarctic krill, depending on the season and food conditions,they will experience a process of violent eating or extreme hunger . This phenomenon will be repeated several times in their life, so their body size will also increase or decrease.
    In order to adapt to this huge change in size, krill will shell every 13-20 days to adapt to the growth of the body, or shrink to get "clothes". This strange phenomenon makes it impossible for us to judge the age of krill by their body size.

  • 3）HOW TO JUDGE THE AGE OF KRILL?
    Krill is a small shrimp like crustacean, with an average length of 3.5 cm. Their eyes do not follow the same growth and shrinkage patterns as their bodies, so the older the krill, the larger the eyes.
    In order to actually measure the exact age of the krill, the number of rings on the eyestalk can be calculated, which gives an approximate value of the krill life, just like calculating the tree rings. The average life span of krill is about 6 years, and the oldest known krill has exceeded the record of 11 years.

  • 4）MAGICAL AND POWERFUL ANTARCTIC ANIMALS
    Emperor penguins can hatch chicks at minus 40 degrees; The Weddell seal can dive more than 600 meters to the bottom of the sea for 73 minutes; The Arctic tern travels between the poles once a year, with a total journey of more than 40000 kilometers; Fin whales can march at a speed of 46 km / h and eat 1.8 tons of krill a day. Their common characteristics: Antarctic krill, which is rich in marine phospholipids and other nutrients, is the basic food for their survival.

  • 5）THE SECRET OF ANTARCTIC ANIMALS' COLD TOLERANCE -- MARINE PHOSPHOLIPIDS
    Marine phospholipid is a kind of phospholipid from marine organisms, which is rich in omega-3 (dha/epa). They are important biological molecules, constitute the cornerstone of cell structure, and play an important role in cell biochemistry and physiology. The high content of polyunsaturated fatty acids in marine phospholipids is very important for Antarctic animals to maintain the fluidity of plasma and cell membrane in the Antarctic marine extreme cold environment. Studies have shown that compared with terrestrial phospholipids (soybean phospholipids and egg phospholipids), marine phospholipids have higher absorption and health benefits. Meanwhile, compared with triglyceride omega-3 (fish oil), marine phospholipid omega-3 also has higher stability, bioavailability and effectiveness.
